I Have Never Seen A Professional Athlete More In Need Of A Concussion Than Dennis Wideman

Uhhh, what the hell is Dennis Wideman still doing on the bench? Hey Calgary, maybe want to grab a trainer and get the guy back to the locker room? You can't just full on nail an oblivious referee from behind, casually take a seat on the bench like you're ready for your next shift, and then apologize after the period. You have to have a good reason and "my head was down and I didn't see him" doesn't count as a good reason when you extend your arms and bury an official face first into the ice. Especially when you would have to be blind, deaf, and dumb not to catch him in your peripheral. One of two things happened here. Either Dennis Wideman was dazed and confused, or he took out his frustrations from the original hit on one of the guys that failed to see it happen. Either way, he needs to at least pretend his brain is scrambled. In fact, if he's not concussed and he is really committed to the team then he would sneak back down the hallway and slam his head into the wall until he started seeing double. Jesus Dennis, have a little respect for you profession and make a team official beat you over the head with your own helmet until you don't even know what city you play in anymore. If there is anything that the NHL takes more seriously than physically abusing officials, it's head injuries. Better to fail concussion protocol and sit out a couple games with a mild brain bruise than get suspended for 15-20 games and forever paint yourself as the guy that tried to give a linesmen scoliosis. I guess I can give him credit for his postgame explanation sounding sincere, but his effort to get out of the way of an on-ice official appeared to be anything but...
