I think you misuse the word "think".

Sorry, I don't know what this means.

According to the wire, Simon has been suspended indefinitely.

Wow, that's a cheap shot. Will Simon play again this season?

FYI, skip to the end of the clip unless you want to watch 2 minutes of a guy laying on the ice.

This one looked 10x worse than the McSorley incident, and 100x worse than Bertuzzi....

Surely you can agree that it was a disgusting cheap shot.

For me, that has to be a season long suspension.

No way. This was not as bad was what Bertuzzi did to Steve Moore. Bertuzzi grabbed Moore from behind and jammed him head first into the ice. That's not remotely as bad as what happened here.

Though it was definitely 10x worse than the McSorley incident. Agreed.

I was surprised Orr didn't totally lose it and destroy Simon on the ice. Luckily for everyone involved Orr was like the last guy to get near Simon. That could of got real ugly.

If you watch the replay, Orr was on the other side of the ice with his back turned, I've got a feeling he didn't see the hit. He probably just saw a teamate down, a bunch of players in a scrum, and said, "HEY! That's my job" and ran over.

But yeah, if that wasn't such a close meaningful game, there would have been some nasty fights.

I've never seen you comment in a hockey thread.

It's amazing how these incidents bring people out who've no idea what the sport is about to comment on how long a suspension should be.

also, lol at Orr 'destroying' Simon. Simon can handle himself.

You don't need to watch hockey regularly to know that was brutal and deserves a long suspension.
