A league which uses its violence as a selling point and does not even try to control fighting is bent out of shape about a juvenile suggestive term? He should have just tried to maim the guy who is dating his ex. He maybe would have gotten two minutes. Would a more popular player have been suspended?
And I remember the "sloppy seconds" topic on WWTBAM. I thought the question was going to be about Paris Hilton.

Many think that the controls, considerably effective, on fighting are why someone like Avery with a predilection on and off the ice for the cheap shot has survived, so far. Partly true, partly illusory. I am not really surprised what gets the league PTB in a knot.
I was surprised to see the phrase on the category list, though.

I thought he was referring to his exes in the plural. What a guy! And delusional to boot, since he thinks he was all of their "first"!

I heard this story on talk radio in the car yesterday. I didn't get it. Like, what really happened, as what they said happened didn't seem to warrant the punishment in my head.
so... in sport related things, I always call 'some'one to explain it to me.
"some'one said exactly what you said.
Didn't help me understand the problem this guy got himself into, but it was funny.

The classic meaning of the phrase would probably refer to what might be now be called elsewhere on the Net 2M-1F
hey, I haven't put any more details. This is just if someone from the FCC is reading. Well, I think I can say as the cancer docs do, "synchronous, instead of metachronous". Always sounds better in Greek.
