Darren Dreger Sucks

Darren Dreger was in rare form this morning by creating controversy about a suspected "slew foot" by Matt Cook on Brad Richards in last night's game.

Here's the hit in question

That's the best angle we could find because ROOT Sports sucks so we have to listen to some Rangers fan whine about it.

Cook has not been suspended for the hit.  The "kicking motion" occurs when Richards feet are already up in the air.

We take several issues with this non-story.  Cooke has been on the receiving end of at least two headshots by our count, and Darren Dreger was quiet.  We also don't think the league would even look at this without Canadian media whining.  The suspicion that the media could be influencing discipline procedures is disgraceful.  Look at the Neal high sticking fine after PK Subban actually threw a slew foot at him.  

All we're asking for is consistency here.
