Ahh I half way agree with you but I don't think Doan intended on making a dirty hit, lewis turned @ the very last second there was no way Doan could have pulled up or changed the way he already planned on hitting him, it looked bad, and its fucked up lewis got bloody, but Doan didn't intend on that happening.. Smith should get a suspension for using his stick with gross intent to injure, but that won't happen given Smith is there best player, and probably the only reason there still playing this far into the playoffs, if smith gets suspended I would be shocked, if Doan gets suspended I would be surprised but not shocked only because he has a prior track record for bad hits etc.. the Havlat hit was the worst, he should definitely be suspended for game 3, maybe even game 4, but I don't think he has any priors for bad hits, so he'll probably sit for game 3, but @ this point I don't think it even matters, Phoenix is burnt yotes!!! there done!!! GO DEVILS!!!
You are forgetting, as I forgot to mention in my original post, that the Doan hit was on a delayed penalty. Therefore Doan thought he could get away with a cheap one, I don't think he meant for it to be as bad as it was. However, it was still cheap to try and go at a guy like that and certainly not a play to "feel bad for him." The Yotes were trying to run guys and injure them. Meanwhile the announcers are trying to say, "that's what you do when you know you are beat." NO ITS NOT! You finish your checks yes, but there is no excuse for intent to injure. With Torress suspended it seemed like he was coaching in place of Tippet in the third. I fully expect the Kings to take care of business and finish off these desert pups, however I am afraid that these cheap shots are going to take out some guys first. Also, how about that sniper that got Smith again; I did not realise that Phoenix had a grassy knoll.
GKG!
