Renney Wants Smith Suspended

I missed this earlier today, but apparently after last night's game Tom Renney had this to say regarding Lightning goaltender Mike Smith's relentless slashes to the back of Aaron Voros' legs...

"You usually don't get hurt fighting but you might get hurt with a spear or slash to the back of the leg," Renney said to Damian Cristodero at Lightning Strikes. "It was completely unprovoked and I think Smith should be suspended."

Of course the slicked haired one (aka Barry Melrose) had this to say...

"If the referees don't protect you, you have to protect yourself," Melrose said. "It's jungle rules out there. It's Sing-Sing rules out there in the third period."

...fine Barry, we'll see if it's ok when Colton Orr sucker punches Martin St. Louis in the face in the third period the next time we play.

...there were a couple of comments in an earlier post wondering why Smith went so crazy with Voros doing nothing more than parking himself in front of the goal. Smith's response was that he let his emotions get the better of him. Ya think?

Oh god. Someone go to Puck Daddy and see the 211 comments on that D-bag Wysh's post about Voros. He is such a hater it makes me puke in my mouth.

What do you expect, Wyshynski is a rabid Devils fan. There is no way he'll ever be objective when it comes to the Rangers.
