Byfuglien has already taken his fair share of cheap shots at Luongo in last year's playoffs. Its about time someone lays out one of their stars, clean hit to boot :thumbsup:

I don't remember Moore's hit being dirty. If there was any elbow at all, it's because most bodychecks are thrown sideways. To the best of my recollection, I don't remember Moore going into the hit with an elbow out.

Byfuglien is just doing his job, and doing it right might I add. It's our D's job to clear the front of the net or make people pay if they want to establish territory. That's why you see Salo slew footing centres. That area is no man's land unless it's Bieksa.

I'm actually glad one of the commentators finally caught on our weak hits. It seems like most of hits are just done in an effort to finish their checks but really, all their just doing is brushing up against the other players. Good on Willie to step it up. But it speaks on the effort of others.

I think people think it's like the Moore hit on Naslund because it involves the captain. Don Taylor was saying last night - he thinks someone will now go after Mitchell kinda like the Bertuzzi incident. I don't think that will happen. Someone may ask Mitchell to drop the gloves - he will and its all done.

As much as I hate the Hawks - especially Kane. I know I will be cheering for Toews to make team Canada. Good Canadian kid. You see how quick he got up from that hit. Granted he was seeing little birds and wasn't balanced - he got up right away and skated to the bench. He even said - "I had my fucking head down"...

That FAIL buttin is awesome!..lol

You might want to go and watch that hit again. Moore left his feet, hit Naslund in the head and Nassy was leaning forward for the puck.

Not too sure what you mean most body checks are thrown sideways. I know they aren't thrown in reverse.

Hey guys my friend just sent me an email for some charity thing where Trever Linden will be a host - thought you may be interested

A borderline NHL player in Steve Moore - saw Naslund in a very uncompromising position. With Naslund's head so low he took the opporrunity to nail him. It's not outright a cheap hit. The fact that it was a 4th liner hitting our captain is what makes it not sit right with me.

just got sent this!

ovie is NOT no1. Top 10 goals while falling

How is Ovie's not #1?? Maybe Fishers was as good..but come on..

I hope Steve Moore burns in hell.

LOL Pierre Turgeon's goal is awesome.

I'm a Canuck fan and even I think its clean. He didn't lead the hit with his elbow nor did he leave his feet until after impact. Albeit it, he got his head but I'm thinking he was going for the body but got the head inadvertently. Kind of like how OV was aiming for Gonchar's body but managed to get his knee instead.

I feel for you there, seriously. But in all fairness, is it fair to have an in-game social heirarchy? Like should there be an unwritten code that team superstars or captans should be exempt from physical contact.

I respect your opinion otherwise but in my own personal opinion, it seems so unhockeylike to me.

#3 and #2 were better than OV's #4 but #1?? no way

i called 3-2 on the game last night :) shouldof betted LOL

Anyone see the goal Pavelec let in tonight?

It was from the WSH defensive zone lol!

enough about the moore hit please..

Mitchel rocked toews, he's on our side, end of story :D

OT: Yankees were down 4-0 but just scored 6 runs in the 7th to take the lead, take that redsuck fanzzz.

fucking east TSN..

they just had a "top 10 glass moments" and didnt even have Trevor lindens hit, which was wayyy bigger than Lucic's at #4

since where on the topic of hits/cheap shots...

^ yeah, that was fucked up too. mcsorely never saw another nhl game after that if i remember correctly.

After watching that Mitchell on Toews hit I youtubed the hit that Stevens pretty much ended Eric Lindros' career with and it isn't even close. The Mitchell hit is way more violent, I'm surprised Toews got up at all.

its funny how Fin is there too... protecting the hood ..lol

Nope, and deservedly so. The NHL isn't hard enough on intent to injure these days.

Man, that video still makes me sick. It was a good thing the entire team went and defended Brashear.
