| The big talk right now is about Nashville Predators' energy player Jordin Tootoo and his punch that knocked out Stephane Robidas of the Dallas Stars on Saturday night. On Monday Tootoo was suspended for 5 games for his punch. Here's what happened: Tootoo layed out Mike Modano which looked to be a hard clean check. It was clean, maybe could have been charging, but this is still hockey, players can hit each other. We all know Bettman wants ballerina dancing in hockey, but Tootoo says "NO!" and so do we fans of true hockey. Anyways, Tootoo lays out Modano with a clean check, Robidas looks to be coming in on Tootoo high with his arms, but before Robidas can get at Tootoo, Tootoo turned and fired a gloved right hand punch that sent Robidas down to the ice and down for the count as he was out.
