Always worth a read, and always poignant.

When Keith elbowed Daniel, the Canucks saw an opportunity to rest Henrik and add to the Keith suspension. The Canucks, believe it or not, have pulled the old grade 3 switcharoo. Hear that Chicago hockey media? The worst cheap shot team in history has set a new low (or high?) in faking.

Henrik keeps his streak alive with Daniel playing.
Keith gets what he deserves.
Canucks prep for playoffs.
:D

I'd bet most of the morons in the Blackhawks forum at a certain site would buy into that if it were properly presented.
