Stupid hit. Shame only Brad Stuart was man enough to drop the gloves and go after Stewart, even if it was so ineffective cos of the dogpile he didn't even get a roughing.

New sheriff in town and you would be hard pressed to find a more blatant example of an idiotic hitting from behind. Whats not to get? Stewart should have gotten 3 for the hit, 3 more for being stupid.

Stewart had a straight line to the puck and Kronwell turned to his right at the last second which Stewart couldnt have anticipated. This is one of those plays where Kronwell needs to be more aware of what is possible. He looked to his left but not his right but Stewart saw the numbers.

Langenbrunner leaping into the pile to grab Franzen was funny.
Bad hit, decent enough call.

Nice reaction from the Redwings there
Three games is one too many but acceptable coming from Shanny.
