If Pronger had done this the suspension would not of been as severe, because the media would not of jumped on the story with the same gusto, it's just not the same story when you replace all-star with 4th liner

He didn't drive his head into the ice, but he did drive him into the ice. He was on top of him the entire way down. He was half bent over before he started falling, there is no way he would have broken vertebre if he didnt have someone on top of him. He fell on top of him, and went to keep hitting him. Draper got checked into the boards anyway, he didnt get punched, so its not comparable.
As for Pronger doing it, you don't know what would have happened, so don't pretend like you do. Who's the psychic now?
