I need some Ketchup for my kosher ham. Does Danny Mac have a ketchup belt?

I think fighting has diminished (since the Ducks entered the league), and I enjoy the faster game.
The cry for a two-line pass was an attempt to eliminate the regular season sludge fests of neutral traps and board scraping. Think about how many goalies got to extend their careers while the puck stayed between the dots for so many seasons.

The Broad Street Bullies:
Part of Ned “Satan’s” Jury of the damd against Homer and his soul for a doughnut contract.

That hit on Havlat was so filthy, I can’t say we would have won any more games with him in but it sure would have helped. I guess they knew what clutch player to take out to make sure the Hawks didn’t start a come back. Funny that it happened in the only game the Wings lost too. Now what? Burish and Eager are gone and those snipers we have are in the crosshairs of a lot of hard hitting mofo’s. Hope for the best I guess.

Why does a caller need to be able to name which player they want to be able to identify the Bulls have a weakness at power forward?
I have known for 20 years the Bears needed a quarterback. I was not aware Jay Cutler was available until they got him. What I did know is that I wanted the best available quarterback. The Score itself is running a poll on what is the Bears biggest weakness. It doesn’t list a bunch of offensive lineman, and ask which one do you want. The caller clearly stated he wanted a big man. What the caller was pointing out was he felt that need was more important than getting guard help.
You tried to make him look like a complete ***, but you came off sounding like the ***. Talking over someone because you can does not mean you proved your point.
You sounded like a fool.

In the 1980s the Gretzky Era hit its stride, and so did fisticuffs. We all know “The Great One” was immensely talented, but at 6′0″ and 185 pounds, was also an easy target for bigger, stronger players. His numbers with Edmonton in the 1980s would have been unlikely if not for the protection of tough guys like Dave Semenko and Marty McSorley.

This is the reason for the fighting, without it “The Great One” might have been just okay…ha ha.

Kronwall’s hit was filthy. Even if Havlat had the puck, Kronwall left his skates, and had no intention of playing the puck.
How would game six had played out if Havlat was on the ice? (Huet had to stop Chelios from winning it in regulation!)

The Simpson’s spoof on U.F.C. was pretty sharp:
“at least, in football and hockey, someone is trying to put something in a goal or some kind of a zone.
Football is, inherently, brutal. There will be, at least, eight guys on every play that are going to knocked around on every down. How much gouging is going on for those “loose balls?”
I like football. but the players police themselves, because the refs rarely see the first after the whistle foul.
Theoretically, you can play an NHL game without anyone taking a hard hit (probably not a ride against the boards), but you can’t play a modern NBA game without contact.
The purpose of an NHL goon is not to start fights, his purpose is to try to take some guys head off or knees out without the refs blowing the whistle. If one team has a goon or two their opponent has to have a reason to make that guy think twice about his role on the team.
If hockey were truely neanderthalic, more goalies would be getting scraped off the ice.

Dude, the level of hockey stupidity around here is crazy. I can’t say amazing because it is more of a niche sport so I’m not suprised. What is amazing is that Gas Can even mentioned shields. Pay attention to who wears shields and who is fighting.

Why do these morons comment on things they have no knowledge of? YOU MAKE YOURSELF LOOK STOOOOOPID!

One more reason not to mention Detriot again, I guess that hit on Havlat by Kronwall in the playoffs last year was because the Red Wings are such nice guys? Because they dont have big bodies to knock skill guys around right? Sorry I have to keep using only Hawks references but I dont think any of these tree huggers even know who Thornton or Boogaard are…which in itself is sad.

Good lookin out 800hp.
