Yeah, but when Miller was putting his hand in his face, he didn't really show that inner calm, now did he?

Now, how is this a just decision? Yes, Peeler aimed for the head, and he should have gotten a "punishment". However, Garnett, with his "inner calm" should have let the incident go (the elbowing in the gut 20 seconds earlier) rather than instigate the blow to the head with his elbow to the chest.
Many other players do similar (if not more damaging) blows to one another and are not fined, never mind suspended.
Kings are going to come out pissed off....and you can bet BJ will do everything he can to be back in the lineup for Wednesday's game.
