That is why the league isn't pursuing it... there's nothing to pursue.
The hair pulling in the Chicago series a couple years back was a bit˘h move, no question. This? Come on. Tell you what, unless it's to induce vomiting to clear poison, any man that tries to shove his fingers into another man's mouth shouldn't expect to get them back at all 
2 words: Marc Savard.
Actually the best/funniest quote I've heard all day on this biting non-issue is from a former NFL linebacker (forget his name off the top of my head):
""the space outside of my helmet is all his, the space inside my helmet is all mine"
This you're right about. From the horses mouth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pxu2-Ts4AWM (possibly NSFW due to language) |
I see him chomp down, Geoff. Apparently we see different things, and I guess there is no point in debating it.
No defense of Marc Savard's bite will come from my lips, I think it is a b*tch move from any player. Even my all-time favorite D-man, Dave Manson, had a biting incident with Scott Stevens, and there is no defending it.
I believe the quote actually came from HOF running back Jim Brown.
