Dude, you are the only one that cares all that much about Hockey. Don't try to compare it to Basketball just to get the thread out of the OT section.

Didn't Andre Miller run the entire length of the court to hit Blake Griffin? I don't think there was even a whistle.

Stern made the NBA a punitive league. The 80s were a bad decade for freedom.

There wasn't a whistle, but there was a suspension that ended Andre Miller's league leading 632 consecutive games played streak.

Never seen that before... and not sure how to interpret it. On one hand, Griffin's the biggest flopper in the league outside of his teammate CP3, so there's that. On the other hand, he was blindsided, and he really didn't do much to deserve that from Miller. What, he pushed him a little? Miller was a little guy trying to post up... most post players expect that sort of physicality... it's just part of the game.
