Mr. Shanahan,
Thank you for once again screwing over the National Hockey League.
You can read my last post on here to see my thoughts about the hit Andrew Shaw put on Mike Smith. By the letter of the law, you can't touch the goalie. I get that. I also get that you want to protect players. But you are going about this the wrong way.
Anyone with unbiased eyes can tell that Mike Smith embellished the hit. He was hit, but he blew it out of proportion. That you can't or won't see the obvious manipulation here would be beyond me if I didn't already know you were terrible at issuing punishments.
Shea Weber WWE-style slams Zetterberg's head into the boards repeatedly... A non hockey play... And he gets the minimum fine. In a non- Red Wing game, Andrew Shaw tries to make a hockey play, and gets 3 games. Unbelievable.
You claim the hit was "A forceful blow" and Shaw "Does not make a reasonable effort to avoid such contact." He was up against the wall. What does he have to do? And what normal human being goes flying that badly on a hit from someone smaller than him?
I hope for your sake you don't go near Chicago any time soon. Or any city with an NHL team other than Detroit, because people will be out to get you. You clearly are not qualified to hold your office. Go be a TV analyst where your experience will be of use to you.
Sincerely,
Confessions of a Sportscaster
