Let's look again at Johnson's suspension for 2 games for a slash. Just in case your keyboard needed another dozen headbutts: www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm
Great example Aussie: it proves that the NHL has no concrete standards and makes sh*t up as they go
If you heard dean brown on the radio today, he really gave it to the dept of player safety And their inconsistency.
Chris Nilan known neandrathal in the NHL says Stone sold the call, yes he sold a broken bone. He's out for the series more than likely and will not be the same if he does come back at all. So the Sens lose their hottest player and this jackass still thinks Stone sold it. This Nilan assw**e kept talking and saying that Stone was at fault too. WTF is wrong with these people in this sport???

PK doesn't like to be hit (who does?) so a few good, hard, clean, teeth-rattling checks should be enough to get him off his game and make him lose his cool.

I would assume that Stone will not play, and that Neil will. This is exactly the kind of situation where they need to insert him into the lineup.
But I don't want to see any stupidity out there. Just go out and play Senators hockey, win a good, clean, game.... with a LOT more intensity and clean, hard hitting to set the tone.
If Stone is going to play he can't on the first line... cause he'll either have limited mobility OR he'll be so high on drugs he won't be able to stick handle properly.
.....more importantly, will the Sens ignore PK's antics, finish their checks, make MTL pay a physical price and split the games in MTL before heading home for games 3 & 4?
Most importantly: can we borrow Nick Foligno for a game and have him run Price hard enough to fracture HIS wrist?
