Why do you think Lindros received all of those head shots that ended his career early? It is called payback.
Two players suspended at the start of the season and you don't think anything is wrong? You need to deal in reality for a while and get out of the Denial River!

I'll call what Boulerice did goonery, but not Downie. I'll also disagree about the Legion of Doom. They weren't goons...they were big, physical forwards who would hit hard anywhere on the ice and they scored a lot of goals. Legion of Doom does not mean goonery.
Lindros had those hits because he skated with his head down. It's not payback. What did he do to Scott Stevens before Stevens leveled him with the big one?
