Anton Volchenkov hit on Mike Cammalleri
Chec out this hit by Anton Volchenkov on Mike Cammalleri, ouch. I was watching the Bruins game and they just showed this hit. This is how former Michigan Wolverine Mike Cammalleri got hurt and is out 6-8 weeks.

Burish, "I hope to have a beer with him after the season."
I suppose if Burish breaks anymore sticks over his buddies upper body their friendship might be in jeopardy. LOL. This next game is going to get rough and this is what makes the playoffs exciting and fun to watch. I also want to know why Burish doesn't get suspended but Lucic does? Seems to be a little inconsistency here. To break a stick Burish had to hit him pretty damn hard.
The status of Bourque, whose name just kept popping up Tuesday, may be gamesmanship on the part of Keenan, who said the winger from Lac La Biche, Alta., was "day to day to day as a result of the incident last night."
The Flames head coach insisted Monday that Burish injured Bourque with a "blatant" cross-check to the face, although replays showed the stick broke over Bourque's chest and shoulder. Bourque was not made available to the media Tuesday to clarify his status.
"I don't think I crossed the line," Burish said. "I did what needed to be done. It's playoff hockey. It's the same reason they're hitting our guys and they come at me and the same reason I'm going at them.
"Mike Keenan called it a cross-check to the head. It wasn't too close to the head. I think he was wrong."
Burish and Bourque were Blackhawks teammates last year before Bourque's trade to Calgary. They also played together at Wisconsin.
"I'm still going to hopefully have a beer with him after the season is done, but he's not my friend on the ice," Burish said.
