No matter what your stance on the Pronger-Holmstrom debacle is, you will likely find someone on the internet that has the same opinion as you.
Let’s check out what some others had to say about the 1-game suspension dished out to Chris Pronger by the National Hockey League.
Battle of Alberta Gives us a deep lesson in law.
Behind the Jersey thinks the one game suspension is fitting of the crime and thought it nice to see the NHL actually pull it off.
CBC sees the Ducks scrambling to avenge the 5-0 drubbing they took in the last game, especially without the services of Pronger.
Mirtle gives us Randy Carlyle’s strategy for life without Pronger on the blueline.
The Fanhouse has some commentary and a video clip of the incident for you to enjoy.
Canoe says Chris Pronger is out and Brian Burke is outraged. Pronger has been suspended by for Game 4 of the Western Conference final for a forearm shiver to the face of Tomas Holmstrom.
Waiting on Stanley throws in a nice analysis of the situation and also adds a photo of the incident.
So, no matter your stance, there is always someone out there to debate with and there is always someone to take your side.
As always, comments are encouraged!

I personally think one game is weak, I thought it should have been more just because of the intent portion is so obvious.

Tony,
I’m still not completely sure what to think. The Ducks won, so we’ll see what happens with Pronger back in the line-up this weekend.
