Not to detract from the intelligent Caps/Pens debate...
Are we all in agreement (with the obvious exception of Vansmack, of course), that Chris Pronger needs to get about a 20 game suspension at this point? For years he's been one of the most terrible human beings ever to sully the league and after receiving multiple suspensions in last year's playoffs, he's now stomped multiple times on another players leg. Chris Simon got 30 games for this, and despite being Chris Simon, he had nowhere near the rap-sheet or reputation Pronger has.
If there's ever been a case of "star treatment" in sports, its this nutjob not getting some serious time off unpaid. What scum.
