[Webster]

Lilleberg suspended 2 games.

-Late illegal hit on a player without the puck, head main point of contact
-Was suspended one game in the World Championships after a check to the head
-Two players are out with a concussion after his actions

Will he change his game? Doubt that. Try to keep it clean though.

Seems just, the hit was unnecessary.

He got away with one earlier in the season and Engblom lost his marbles at the hit...

There must be a fiery short fuse beneath that choirboy exterior. But there's no need to prove anything. He's shown he can handle the tough side of the NHL. Just settle down and keep it under control.

He said Cooper asked him to play a physical game, that's what they want from him. Those hits and fights create energy on the bench, he just needs to make some adjustments to make sure he follows the rules.

I believe this enforcer role actually works. Team won't get pushed around a lot, and key players will more or less be left alone if you have a "policeman" in the lineup who's being respected by those tough guys.

I do appreciate the physical part of the game; he needs to improve his timing and reading of the play/when to hit.
I hope he continues to hit and that the team gets someone who can drop the gloves on regular basis and with some success. It’s commendable that Lil obliges when opponents invite him to fight, but he is not someone that’s going to intimidate anyone via fighting.

Reminded me of Aaron Rome's hit on Horton.
