I like what Pittsburgh GM Ray Shero said about the NHL suspension of player Matt Cooke for a stupid elbow to the head of a New York Ranger. Next move: Get Cooke off the team, and maybe out of the NHL.
Here's the Shero statement:

Ray Shero Statement on Matt Cooke Suspension

Following is a statement from Pittsburgh Penguins General Manager Ray Shero after the National Hockey League ruled today that Penguins forward Matt Cooke will be suspended for the rest of the regular season (10 games) and the first round of the playoffs:
“The suspension is warranted because that’s exactly the kind of hit we’re trying to get out of the game. Head shots have no place in hockey. We’ve told Matt in no uncertain terms that this kind of action on the ice is unacceptable and cannot happen. Head shots must be dealt with severely, and the Pittsburgh Penguins support the NHL in sending this very strong message.”
