I don't understand how a team like Ottawa, having only five players with more points then Cooke, can say he doesn't belong in the league. Watching the replay, it looks like Cooke is trying to pin Karlsson to the boards by holding out his leg. IMHO, the skate came down with no intention of causing injury.
What I can't understand is how the law doesn't legislate that players have to wear proper protective equipment. This, like any other workplace accident should be investigated. Result? All players should be mandated to wear kevlar socks or some other protective device. Someone mentioned Brian Berard. Facemasks should be mandatory. Having worked in orthotics, I know knee injuries can be prevented as well. Thankfully I deal with the Ministry of Labour to help keep all of us safe and sound.
