That shows how deeply ingrained is the culture of excessive violence in hockey. They put the "sport" over the life of players who may be scarred forever.

I think more people would have listened to Mario Lemieux's rant the other day if he didn't have Matt Cooke on his team. Cooke is one of the dirtiest players in the NHL today. He is a guy that should have been punted a long time ago.
