What, me bite?

While Brandon Dubinsky showed off what looked to either be bite marks or deep scratches on his right wrist today, and added in addition to a tetanus shot he had taken antibiotics to ward off infection, an incredulous Shaone Morrisonn, the accused biter, swore he sank no teeth marks in Dubinsky.

"I have no idea," Morrisonn said. "I heard that and I don't know what he's talking about. I don't know that is all about, actually. It's weird that he said that. (GM George McPhee) is handling it. It was news to me when we landed last night. I didn't really understand what he is saying. I don't know what to say. That's not what happened. I didn't do that or anything like that...I was kind of shocked that they would say that but, you know, this is what they do."

Added coach Bruce Boudreau, "I get so ticked off when I hear that. Shaone doesn't know what the heck they're talking about and I don't either and I looked at it from every different angle. I didn't see a thing...He steadfastly denied doing anything and he was angry, like, 'What are you talking about?' I said, 'I'm just asking.'"

Doesn't take a great reporter here to realize somebody is lying. Objectively, I can report I saw a wound on Dubinsky's right wrist. But there's no way I can confirm that it was from being bitten.

Still awaiting word from the league office as to what Donald Brashear's punishment will be for his high hit to Blair Betts, who is out indefinitely with a broken orbital bone and concussion. Frankly, the Rangers don't care what the punishment is because they've already lost in this trade. Brashear, a marginal enforcer for the Capitals, had nothing to do in the series while Betts, arguably, was one of the Rangers top three or four players all series with his penalty killing.

"It means nothing to us," Aaron Voros said of a possible suspension. "It's not going to affect the way we play the game."

And I think I can speak for most Ranger fans when I say....

"You mean nothing to us" ... You meaning Aaron Voros.

Call me crazy and nuts but I think Rangers can pull an upset tomorrow night. But obviously Hank needs to be god-like again. It's just one game now... and now the Caps are expected to win again. Maybe the underdog role suits us better.

again the league can figure this out real quick on Dubinsky. Either he is lieing or someone else is.. no need for tape, interview them look at his arm and making a ruling...

have them take lie detector tests and we will see who is lieing or not...there were 12 guys on the ice at the time, how hard is it to figure out??

send the crack NHL crew out there, maybe get the guys that missed the brashear hit to investigate this!!!They are obviously competent...........

Morrison is ignorant of it all probably because Mike Green bit him.

Honestly, it's pretty easy to tell if it's a bite or a scratch. Any doctor should esily be able to tell you. I doubt he would have been given a tetanus shot and antibiotics if it wasn't pretty clearly a bite.

Why on earth would Brandon make something up like that?

Oh, check out BB+ for evidence on the bite that, according to the Caps, didn't happen.

Brashear suspended 6 games.

seriously...are you telling me that you can't tell if it was a bite or scratch? a bite has teeth marks, a scratch doesn't. if it didn't have teeth marks, it wasn't a bite. also, tetanus and antibiotics? seriously? watch out for the swine flu...

Stuart - a lie detector test? Give us a break already! This is the NHL Playoffs, not CSI! If they have video evidence then suspend him. If not, move on. (I have no doubt that he was bitten, but it's a he said/ she said situation). There's nothing else that they can do. The perfect revenge would be a win tonight.

I'm interested in such offer,The sound quality in these podcasts is really poor. I feel bad about complaining about something that is free, but I think it is important.
