So what did I miss?

Colin Cambell resigns as NHL disciplinarian and is replaced by Brendan Shanahan.  Aaron Rome of the Vancouver Canucks felt the fire after Mike Murphy ruled (with Brian Burke's help) for his questionable hit on Nathan Horton of the Bruins.  Brian Burke has a history with the Canucks franchise when they said he was guilty of tampering with the Sedins in 2009.  Burke was consulted because of his involvement with a disciplinary ruling of a similar suspension in 1996 involving Claude Lemieux.  While Rome was suspended 4 games much to Vancouver’s public displeasure, Horton is said to be doing well, but is out for the remainder of the playoffs for Boston.
