How do you say goodbye to someone who touched your life and helped shape it?I play music because of Rush. Neil Peart taught me so much as a songwriter and musician. Im happy this news was kept low key, just how Im sure he wanted. Rest now Professor, your lessons will always teach
A critical element that the "rulebook purists" arguing Balogun deserved a red card are conveniently overlooking:
BALOGUN was the one who was challenged from behind.
The Bosnian player played *through* Balogun from behind and placed himself in the path of Balogun's natural step.
When he begins taking that step, Balogun has no idea the Bosnian player would even be in front of him. In that sense, you can't really even consider his move a "challenge." It was simply a step that incidentally landed in the same place the opponent's foot did.
In fact, the reason Balogun's step came down so hard is *because* the Bosnian player challenged into him and knocked him off balance.
This is not "reckless" or "excessive force" by any stretch of the imagination.
The red card was *obviously* unjustified from the outset. The only thing FIFA got wrong here is not immediately suspending the red card after the match.

@BizNasty2point0 deserves the Order of Honour asap for exposing this bully before he could abuse his power again. Get Justin Trudeau on the phone. Chiclets fans need to rally together and make this happen. @ryanwhitney6@RearAdBsBlog@MikeGrinnell_
Drafting Michkov is the exact move previous GM’s have passed on. A great first step of many, and a little hope restored in the Flyers management group.
