The Return Of The Broad Street Bullies?

No, thanks. Tools like Jesse Buolerice should be banished from the game.
VOORHEES, N.J. (AP) -- Maybe now Philadelphia will really get the message: The deliberate and dangerous hits that put two Flyers on the suspended list no longer have a spot in a safer NHL.

Philadelphia forward Jesse Boulerice was suspended 25 games by the NHL on Friday for striking Vancouver's Ryan Kesler across the face with his stick, the longest single-season ban in league history.

In 1998, Boulerice was suspended for one year by the Ontario Hockey League for violent stick-swinging. He went to the American Hockey League the following season and was ruled ineligible until mid-November. (H/T - Yahoo! Sports)
Stick to the face, huh, Jess? Frakkin' coward. Enjoy your suspension. You won't be missed.
