It was gutless. They said Wideman had a concussion & was confused. Well, he never missed a shift on the ice. Why would Hartley put a guy who is confused back out on the ice if he was out of it? Why didn't the Flames take him out of the game? Where was the concussion protocol as Rich said? That hit  was just so blatant. Plus, the guy is the worst defenseman on the team making huge money for what he's really worth.

I never understood why taking steroids as a pro wrestler was such a bad thing? These guys are entertainers. They are considered private contractors. They don't play on any teams where thousands or millions of dollars are bet on. They're big boys & know the risks. If they want to jack up & accept those risks, I say go ahead. It's their life. It's their funeral.

First, I'm not sure what being hit by someone who is or isn't half dazed has to do with the severity of his injuries, but the fact is that the ref hasn't worked a game since the hit.  So Wideman effectively ended this guys career.
Second, if Wideman really was half dazed, then concussion protocol should have kicked in and he should have gone to the quiet room.  But he didn't.  So he was either half dazed and the team and the player ignored concussion protocols or they didn't and he was fine.  You can't have it both ways.  Either way something there isn't right.
Willing to also bet this lawsuit is a result of Wideman and the NHLPA knocking his suspension down to peanuts.
The joke is Wideman effectively ended a guys career then got the PA to cut his suspension down in half.  I don't know if that is worth $10M, but they didn't get justice through league discipline, so they've gone to the next route available.
 

CFL contracts not worth the paper they're written on. Just a big scam to sign players for the now & not tomorrow.

I don't want to wake up in 500 or a thousand years. The world we know won't exist. Imagine if a Viking from 1 AD was brought back to life. He would be absolutely terrified. That would be anyone cryogenically frozen. The adaptation period once awakened could prove to be too much & anyone in that situation might go insane. Besides, the Riders would still be looking for Grey Cup win #5.

If only the CFL had been this diligent about performance enhancing drugs as well as suspending players for such offenses. Orridge had to be dragged kicking & screaming into the 21st century on that one.

Here's the logo on the side of the helmet during the 1980 season. Joe Barnes is the qb pictured. The Als wore that logo, colours & uniform from 1974-80. In 1974 it was on the back of their helmets. It was moved to the front in 75 & finally to the traditional sides of the helmet in 1976. Or something like that.... Have they gone back to that logo & colours? Or just someone playing on the internet with CFL logos & looks for hockey uniforms?

That's their logos from the 70's when Marv Levy was head coach. They won the 77 Grey Cup & they had that logo.

We should have an all out assault & drive Nate off there.

Flames LOL!! 1-28 against the Ducks at the Honda Centre since 2004.

if you think they hibernate now on CJOB then they'd be buried with Jets coverage on 1290 TSN. What do you think would happen if the Jets & Bombers had games simultaneously? The Bombers would be relegated to a feed on their their webpage. Being on CJOB is still better than sharing 1290 TSN with the Jets.

When are politicians going to give up  their golden pensions & severance packages?

You can go to chat.

When's the last time anyone cared what Adam Wazny had to say?  Used to say he's the biggest loser in Winnipeg sports media but ever since he got booted out of that group, he's just an everyday loser.

Again, what do the Jets have to do with the Flames playing Anaheim?

Jets? The Flames are playing the Ducks not the Jets.
