With his track record of numerous back to back offences it is pretty clear that Chris Simon is not straighting up and flying right. Should he make history (against his own will of course) and be expelled as a player from the National Hockey League ?

I am not sure why he would make history, as he would not be the first NHL player to be expelled from the NHL for life.
This distinction belongs to Billy Coutu.
In the 1927 playoffs Coutu struck official Jerry Laflamme that started a brawl. He was suspeded for life at the time.
He was re-enstated two years later so he could play in the minors, but he never played in the NHL again...

Well he got a 30 day suspension for his last escapade.
You may as well consider it a life suspension. He may be back but I doubt it. He is 36 at the end of this month, and what he has to offer to the game has diminished. He is a UFA at the end of the season, and at the league minimum salary I believe that there is not a team in the league that will be interested in his services...

I dont no If you could get him to play the type of hockey he played when he was in calgary i would. He played extremely well for a player of his caliber and his role. |

My answer is simple regarding Chris Simon.
There is no place for him in the NHL.

Chris Simon is a big goon who doesn't know what it means to play hockey. He should go join UFC or something like that! |

He isn't that smart just back back from a 25 game suspension and then right away got a 30 game suspension. Like wow he needs some help and then maybe come back in the NHL.

from everything i have heard, he is actually an amazingly nice guy. Every player that has played with him says that he is awesome in the dressroom. He is just super competitive and kinda loses it on the ice. I think he should take some serious counselling (which he is doing) and unless he can control his competiveness, he probably shouldn't be able to play hockey again. With that being said, however, i do not think that personal attacks should be made against the man. He has a problem, yes. But he is no worse of a person than anyone else. He does not plan to go out and hurt someone (like Marc Crawford/Bertuzzi/ Moore incident). He loses it in the heat of the battle. And i respect the man for admitting that he has a problem and trying to fix it.

I'm not saying he is, or is not on steroids but it is normal for many 30 year olds to have acne. And his rage issues go back more than a couple years. That is an assumption that you can not prove so it's merely a guess, a possibility. Yes it's more possible than him menstruating but it's still a guess. The guy could just be more prone to fits of rage due to chemical imbalances in the head. |

You know what, he probably is on steroids, we shoudl tell Bettman to suspend him indefinitely, the guy if worse than what everybody thought of Bertuzzi at the time of that incident. He gets a major suspension once a year.
Ellis or Mason?

He plays for the wild hahahha. Him and Boogard should play on a line like in the playoffs intimidate everyones top line. I don't think that anyone would want to play against those goons. I would crap myself. |

Throw Fedoruk on the other wing and watch the other team hide in the corner. |
