What do you think of the eight-game suspension given to James Wisniewski for his hit on Brent Seabrook?
''He's reckless; I don't think he's dirty. He is definitely reckless and he's not always in control of what's going on. I have no problem playing that way, but you need to answer the consequences. Maybe you need to fight once in a while. Maybe somebody needs to grab him and give it to him one time. If you're going to play that way, you need to answer the bell.''
