There was a fight a few weeks ago, I can't remember between who but one guy is off balance and his opponent wrapped his arm around his head to keep his head from hitting the ice.

Fighting gives hockey a bad rep, especially among people that don't understand hockey but I've always thought that a lot of the goons play and fight in a mostly respectful and sportsmanlike way. Yes, everyone gets angry and shit but I remember listening to George Laraque mic'ed up, wishing his opponent good luck before whupping his ass.

I understand what you're saying, but i think in this situation everything happened too fast. I imagine its pretty hard to handle 230lbs of dead weight with only one arm thats fully extended. All that weight just falls like a tonne of bricks once hes out cold.

That being said... I think it's alright. Kind of bold, but I'll appreciate the change up from the typical red and blue.

Engelland Vs dorsett. Cradled Dorsetts head from the ice when he fell on top of him.

I don't mind the all-star uniforms. Beats the teal vs purple crap from the late 90's.

DanHibiki 01-09-2015 10:51 PM

I wish the all star game didn't exist.

When you're throwing down like that, you're pretty off balance. I don't think it was Pedan's intention to just drop Tinordi like that. Both were off balance and Pedan didn't want to lose his balance by hanging onto Tinordi.

I'm not sure how you can reasonably expect two guys that are fighting to make sure neither gets injured when in reality that is the very reason why they are fighting.

Reminds me of the NFL pro bowl uniforms, which are subsequently influenced by college uniforms (so I'm told)

IMO they look great in pictures, but looked horrible on the field. I assume these will be even worse with the white ice.

Ronin 01-09-2015 11:44 PM

You're right. It happens quick and decisions can't be made but still, I think especially amongst the enforcers there's a code. I know it seems counter-intuitive to want to look out for a guy that you're trying to punch in the face but I like good, clean fights.


I love shit like this...drop the helmets, let's have a fair fight. Iggy knocks Willie good after a spirited bout but hangs on. I'm sure it's on all their minds when they fight. No one wants to see someone seriously injured unless your name is Chris Simon.

Sure he hung on but he also gave in two other punches! Let's not pretend that he hung on there to keep Mitchell from injuring himself. He held on in the heat of the moment.

Lol Wut? Strong connection between words and video.

Congrats to vrbadass for being selected as an NHL all star for the first time!

SumAznGuy 01-10-2015 06:20 PM

Nice to see Corrado is playing tonight, but Weber sits.
We'll see how well he plays tonight.

Bieska and Stanton -1 already.

When will they turn off the blinders and sit Bieska or Sbisa.

fliptuner 01-10-2015 07:35 PM
