- wdw25, on 01/07/2009, -6/+32Two things.
1. I never want to see biting in any sport (except for alligator wrestling).
2. Andrew Peters should stop being such a pussy. He got bit on the hand, through a glove, while the guy who bit him was wearing a mouth guard. It's not like he is missing pieces of his ears. - KingHarvest00, on 01/07/2009, -2/+15I can't believe how much Ottawa sucks.
- stellarceltic, on 01/07/2009, -0/+12Bite someone = 2 game suspension.
Use the term "sloppy seconds" = 6 game suspension.
Wow. - wdw25, on 01/07/2009, -0/+10I agree that there is no place in sports for biters but Peters is one of the NHL's enforcers. Instead of skating around yelling that he was bit, he should have punched Ruutu in the mouth. He bites you on the hand you knock out his ***** teeth.
- ottville, on 01/07/2009, -1/+11the Sens are hungry for a win.
- doiveo, on 01/07/2009, -0/+9"He had his finger in my mouth, but I didn't bite him." lol
Still, if something like that comes to the attention of the league, it should review regardless of what the ref saw. - HoolKin, on 01/07/2009, -2/+9haha I was at this game, the crowd was going nuts!
Ruutu, the Mike Tyson of NHL - quacker912, on 01/07/2009, -1/+8He just got suspended 2 games and will lose $37,707 in pay. Ruutu is as classless as they come in the NHL.
- dbarefoot, on 01/07/2009, -0/+6Has somebody already forgotten Sean Avery?
- KirbyMorph, on 01/07/2009, -0/+52 games to be exact. Wonder if the IIHF will follow suit with some kind of action on that Swedish player that bit the guy in the CAD vs SWE game the other day. Pretty much identical situation of om nom nom'ing on the face washing glove.
- maxtrix, on 01/07/2009, -1/+6Story about biting = Om nom nom nom
- scanmikey, on 01/07/2009, -2/+6Did anyone else read the headline and think that some of the Sabres got their penises bitten by Jarkko Ruutu?
- THREETWOONEZERO, on 01/07/2009, -0/+4In the WJHC Gold medal game was i the only one who noticed a Swede bite one of Canada's players during a scrum?
- dbarefoot, on 01/07/2009, -0/+4That quote is positively Clintonian.
- BadseedJR, on 01/07/2009, -0/+4That has to be the gayest song I've ever heard.
- Jeffler, on 01/07/2009, -5/+8FWIW, Ruutu got a 2 Game Supsension..should've been higher.
- r1y23, on 01/07/2009, -3/+6Why? I think 2 games is enough to teach someone not to bite other players.
- odxWallz, on 01/07/2009, -2/+5I could absolutely not disagree more. His actions were grossly outside of the sportsmanlike standards that are within all sports. I think what he did was disgusting and shameful, and I'm disappointed he wasn't suspended more games.
He's a rat-faced dirty player with no respect for the spirit of the game. Hockey would be better without him. - FXNGLAS, on 01/07/2009, -0/+3Ruutu's facial expression in an interview makes it pretty obvious he was guilty.
- immatellyouwhat, on 01/07/2009, -0/+3EH?!!!!!
- dbarefoot, on 01/07/2009, -1/+4Totally. Peters is a big talker for somebody who plays 5 minutes a game.
- wdw25, on 01/07/2009, -0/+3FTA: "Less than a day after Sweden's Joakim Andersson was accused of biting a Canadian player"
I don't think you were - Jeffler, on 01/07/2009, -0/+3OM NOM NOM NOM
- Cerialthriller, on 01/08/2009, -0/+2its not really a fine, its a pay forfeit for those 2 games based on what your salary comes out to per game that goes into an emergency fund
- blakyce, on 01/07/2009, -0/+2I can't see a guy biting another setting back the NHL when the biggest sports league in North America (the NFL) is full of criminals, MLB went through a decade of steroids scandals and the NBA is a greatest hits collection of egos.
- pp7k, on 01/08/2009, -0/+2Ruutu is not as bad as Avery.
- ranndino, on 01/08/2009, -0/+2Way to be a xenophobic asswipe.
- CDollars, on 01/08/2009, -1/+3Crosby is such a ***** rat.

Way to act like a man, Sidney. - OmniMe, on 01/07/2009, -1/+3We miss you in Pittsburgh Ruu
- reverant, on 01/07/2009, -0/+2That bites that he didn't get a penalty for that maneuver
- str1fe, on 01/09/2009, -0/+2The financial penalty isn't a fine, it's just that he doesn't get the money he would have made from playing those two games. It's part of every NHL suspension.
- DigginDave, on 01/08/2009, -0/+2Jarkko Ruutooth
- kafka47, on 01/08/2009, -0/+2I was at a charity event some time ago and I literally spilt beer all over Jarkko.
The look he gave me was not unlike the look he gave Peters... - btrues, on 01/07/2009, -1/+3If you think Peters is a pussy, you should probably fight him
- Pete0430, on 01/07/2009, -1/+3The man is an enforcer, I give him credit for an ingenious new way of ***** with the opponents minds
- ranndino, on 01/09/2009, -0/+1Precisely. A quick check of NHL's top scorers also reveals predominance of Europeans. Furthermore, a team by team roster check will also reveal that most NHL teams heavily rely on their European talent for scoring.
I guess our friend ctdkid prefers lots of physical contact between men (a good North American dump & chase humpfest) to the game of hockey that requires creativity and actual skills. Nothing wrong with that. To each his own. - MasterQ, on 01/08/2009, -1/+2Ruutu != Tyson
- Hodor, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1I can't understand how the team goes from one of the best scoring teams to one of the worst.. in only one soason!!
- THREETWOONEZERO, on 01/07/2009, -0/+1I should have read that first paragraph. Oops!
- ranndino, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1People need to chill out. It was the 3rd period and Jarkko simply got hungry for some Buffalo wings. He hasn't had anything to eat since the pre-game meal.
- nosepressthebox, on 01/07/2009, -0/+1I was there too, I've never seen a reaction like that from a crowd, Glad I got to be a part of it.
- 8300dvo, on 01/09/2009, -0/+1yea, no violence
- str1fe, on 01/09/2009, -0/+1The defending Stanley Cup Champions have more Europeans on their roster than North Americans. Hell, they have 8 people just from Sweden, including their captain. Also, Sweden currently holds the Olympic gold medal in ice hockey.
- lololol1, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1It happened a couple years ago, a player bit Wade Belak if I recall
- Cerialthriller, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1hes not in the NHL at the moment
- Jacare, on 01/09/2009, -0/+1thanks didn't know that.

"he forfeits $31,707.32 in salary based on the number of games in the season (82), rather than the number of days (186). The money goes to the Players’ Emergency Assistance Fund."
at least it goes to good cause. - HoolKin, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1he was also fined $31,000
- Cerialthriller, on 01/08/2009, -1/+2If Crosby got signed by New York, me, along with thousands of other fans would burn the Garden to the ground. We want no part of that crying bitch
- forestballa, on 01/08/2009, -1/+2this suspension sure will take a bite out of his pay.
As of late hockey players have been up to some theatrics. 2 bites in one week, Markstrom leaping all over the place in the WJ's, Crosby and his questionable fight, and then Semin's fight. - Cerialthriller, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1well some articles reported that his skin was broken and he required medical attention
