Jarkko Ruutu's bite costs two games, chunk of salary - ESPN

During a fight with the Sabres' Andrew Peters, Ottawa's Jarkko Ruutu tried to take a piece out of his opponent with his teeth. As of Wednesday, Peters was wearing a bandage around his bitten right thumb.

The NHL suspended Ruutu two games without pay for the incident. That comes to a total of $37,707.

So what do you think? Are they making a big deal over nothing, or should his fine have been tougher?

Peters needs to grow a pair. It was just a little bite on the hand.

If you're gonna fight...fight. Don't be a pus*y about it when someone starts fighting dirty.

I thought hokey used prison rules.. no blood, no foul. I saw no blood.
