Little late there, FN. We have been discussing. I truly feel bad for Karlsson. However, I have made my opinion known as to whether or not I feel it was intentional.

"Murray expressed his displeasure with the incident and pointed out Cooke's checkered past."
I didn't see the incident but, when it involves Matt Cook, I don't want to. My first reaction tends to be: "I'm sure he's guilty of something."

I was watching the game when it happened. I have no doubt it was not intentional. The NHL should just give him 30 games for being Matt Cooke.

Agreed. Leniency is indicated in this case. The 30 games should be without pay of course.
