And the guy is Russian, how can you not expect some dirty hits from him :-)
And, we could have continued hating Chelios until he retired. But alas, we had to take him in as one of our own.

Really disappointed with mannys comments. The boy clearly did nothing but clap. Was Rypien protecting himself from the excessive air from the fans clapping. Unlike Dominic squirting a Guy with a water bottle this is very different. Rypien was in a state of rage pushing the ref and had bad intentions with a 14-16 year old. I really think the league needs to smack him hard on this one. That dude was in a bad place mentally with some serious tunnel vision. Would like to see a minimum of 5 games hoping for more. He's getting paid to play and if he can't take a fan clapping at him he needs to gtfo of the league. Who knows he may try to kill a Philly fan for heckling him.
Got to imagine knowing Vancouver fans love of Americans the kid deserved it for looking at him and being American. So much for that good Alberta boy.

As big as he was (6'5") and as much as I liked his game, Jiri Fisher was not much of a fighter. He usually ended up on the losing end when the gloves dropped.
Laraque really knew how to fight. Don't know much about him other than he's not the guy you want to square off against.

Not saying he was a fighter. He definitely got 5 for receiving a beating. Just posted it because we were right there when it happened. Didn't show him turtled and the ocean of blood he left.
Georges was one of the last great fighters I think. Game changed and teams don't really want just fighters anymore

Always good to see a fight live, especially when you're team is winning.
Yeah, you can't just be a boxer on skates. I think that's why Detroit fell in love with Proby & McCarty. Although not prolific scorers, each had a few good years and McCarty scored some huge playoff goals. Plus, they were rarely on the recieving end of a beating.

Jumbo apparently resigned for 3 years. The Sharks D and goalies have looked very bad in the first few games. At work listening to the. Sharks Avs game. Looks like Foote suffered a head injury unknown how. If the Sharks D does not gel and a goalie establish himself this will be a long season for SJ.

6 games. Think he could have used more.
