Adelkader is one of the cleanest hitters in the NHL. His hit was a retaliation from a similar hit he received earlier...just saying Every game the Wings play the Hawks I always see at least one cheap shot from him. I'm glad you think he's an angel though. I am not going to have a fan on fan pissing contest on who is dirtier...I could easily point out some tactics that certain Blackhawks do that I would consider dirty. Adelkader's game is based on hitting. I am sure that not all of them are clean as clean gets, but he usually has his stick and elbows down. That's fine. Just dont come here after a humiliating loss to our arch rivals to knock us out of the playoffs and talk about how clean your guys play. You are a very respectable poster and I know I'm just bitching because I'm frustrated but still. The good news for you guys is, the last arch rival to knock a Chicago team out of the playoffs went on to win the championship. So you got that going for you.
