As mentioned on the clip, probably not the best timing with Bettman and a slew of GM's on hand watching it live. Of course, Lupul has never been known as being the sharpest tool in the shed. I say give him 1 game for the hit and 2 games for being an idiot for a total of 3 games.

Color me shocked.

Looked like a pretty obvious targeting of the head to me on that one.

It doesn't matter anymore - they can play favorites and make things up as they see fit.

Look at Perry's recent suspension; sure he deserved it and maybe more, but stating in the video one of the reasons for the punishment was he was suspended in 2009 for an elbow when the whole repeat offender status clears after 18 months or something like that kind of defeats everything they've told us up until now.

Just change the rules when you need to, turn a blind eye when you want, and pretend that after a week nobody will care anymore.

Just change the rules when you need to, turn a blind eye when you want, and discipline someone else in a ridiculous way a week later so everyone will forget this one.

Lupul will do anything to avoid a trip to Buffalo...

Lupul tweeted a picture from his Buffalo hotel room window — featuring a picture of Buffalo’s City Hall — with the caption “Is there any windowless rooms? #buffalo.”

That building is a renowned Art Deco structure that attracts people from around the world that are into architecture from that era. Not that Lupul would know anything about that.

Considered by many to be one of the finest Art Deco public buildings in the country, City Hall was dedicated in 1932, the hundredth anniversary of Buffalo’s founding. Its architect, John Wade, said the building expressed "the masculinity, power and purposeful energy of an industrial community." He wanted an "Americanesque" ornamental building that would dominate the skyline and serve as a symbol of the city.²

The 375-foot high 28-story building, with 316,937 square feet of usable space, cost $6.8 million at its completion. Constructed of gray granite, limestone and warm sandstone, it is beautifully decorated. The exterior features Native American-influenced tile details and friezes depicting aspects of city life, and it is crowned by a brightly colored roof that is illuminated at night.

Never been there before Boss. City Hall does look pretty cool though.

It's an awesome building and I've seen hundreds of people taking pictures of it (a lot of Asians for some reason) not a knock on them but they are tourist that seem attracted to the building.

It is a very impressive structure. Thanks Kenny.

I just get a little fired up when people make comments like that and don't know the significance or history of the building.

Sorry to derail the topic guy's. I just get a little defensive about stuff like that.

I am sorry. Back to why Shanaban does what Shanaban does. :gaah:
