    I'm sure that people are going to be pointing fingers at Matt Cooke over this, as it was his skate that did the damage, but I don't believe he did so deliberately or with any intent to injure.

    I was watching the game when it happened...personally, knowing what Cooke has done in the past, I think it was deliberate. It is not very often you see a guy's skate go up on another guy's leg. That was my initial reaction when I saw it happen, before I knew how badly he was hurt.

    With both Spezza and Karlsson out, I think Ottawa's chances of making the playoffs are now pretty slim.

    I was also watching the game and I disagree with you. Cooke was looking the opposite way. You have to admit that he has changed. I have been watching him every game since be has been a pen. He doesn't plaster anyone from behind anymore like he used to. I understand his past but I see no evidence that he did it on purpose. I love watching karlsson and feel bad for the guy.

    This is a big loss for Ottawa but dont write them off just yet, they have lots of other players that can step up.

    As for the hit on Karlsson, its was not cooke's intent to wilfully cause this injury, it was a hockey hit or play that occurs thousands of time a game, was watching it live and it was a bang bang play. I watched the dallas/clgary game and saw it 3 times the same style of hit but not the same end result.

    I hope the best for karlsson, hopefully he can fully recover and be back for next year

    After severing his achilles in his early 20's. 83 year old Teemu Selanne is leading the Ducks in scoring, it will take some time, but Karlsson will make a full recovery and win several more Norris trophies.

    I was also watching the game and I disagree with you.

    I was not watching the game but to me it's clear that Cooke did it on purpose. Do you think this was the last 'accident'?
    Cooke is one of the biggest rats ever played in NHL.

    ^O-O...wow after seeing that clip, who cares if it was on purpose or not, on Karlsson, the little rat should be banned from the league, maybe let John Scott beat the weasal out of him first though...or Evander Kane! just watched the video of him one punch KO of Cooke.

    sounds like your bias toward the Penguins Matt cooke, since you said who care if it was on purpose or not
    Clearly his intent was to pin the player against the board and not to willfully try to mame or cut Karlsson.

    If anyone acted with intent in the game it was the goon chris neil going after cooke later in the game, guys like neil are the problem in the league

    anyways hope karlsson can recover and come back in the 13-14 season

    ah did you watch the video, all the kneees and heads he went after, the entire league is biased against him! So much so he self admittedly said he had to change the way he played. And yeah, ending the career of Mark Savard was just lovely.

    After what Cooke (again, again, again..) did, you really think that biggest problem is goon who wanna hit that rat to the other planet? No, guys like Matt Cooke is the leagues biggest problem's. They hit after dark and they're good what they do.

    Hit was clean, your bais against cooke is showing here, yes in the past he has had some issues but NOT on this hit. No penalty called , nothing but contact made here, unfortunate his skate made contact on karlssons ankle. whatch the heads and the sticks you will see the momentum carries them into the boards and sticks get up alittle and both guys lose some balance.

    anywasy you see it one way, I see it another. guess we agree to disagree.
