Yahoo! News - Flames Coach Hints at Conspiracy After Nieminen Ban: "The Flames, who have walked a fine line between rugged and undisciplined play in the series, crossed it when Nieminen drove Lecavalier's head into the boards. The Lightning forward went crumbling to the ice before going to the dressing room for stitches on a gash to his head.

Sutter conceded after the game it was a penalty but objected to its severity, which included a five-minute major which left the Flames a man short for the final 4:13 of Game Four."

Let me emphasize a part of that quote: DROVE LECAVALIER'S HEAD INTO THE BOARDS. Darryl Sutter is an ass. Nieminen should be banned from the playoffs. Calgary's 'type of play' is the ugly side of hockey and makes for an extremely boring game.
