Doesn't change the fact that GIguere is a whiney little bitch. Fight your on battles. If Neidermeyer had an issue let him take him, or have pronger come over and handle it, or Moen...I think Moen was in the right...but Giguere coming out from behind stabbing Ott in the legs and then getting him in a headlock is a little bitch move.
It's like some of you have never even watched a hockey game in your lives.Quote:

I got the same impression.Quote:

You hit a guy on top of the shoulder with both hands on the stick and you could put him out for a while. You hit a guy on the back of the neck with hands on the stick and you could put him out for good.Quote:

What Giggy did, wasn't a two handed tomahawk slash. What he did, is the same thing players on every team in every league do at times during the game. And no one says a ****ing thing about it. If Gauthier didn't get a penalty for his elbow, you wouldn't have given a ****. It's actually disgusting how much rope you'll give a guy in a Kings sweater but want to hang someone on a team you don't like.
Maybe it's time for you and your cohorts to back of the purple haze and try a dose of reality.
And just in case you missed it, with your judgement and comprehension being suspect:
NO THEY'RE NOT THE SAME THING, THE RAMIFICATIONS OF CROSSCHECKING SOMEONE UP HIGH IN THE BACK/SHOULDER/NECK COUD BE FAR WORSE.
You twit.
I don't want me to be a smart ***. You are. It's in your nature. You embrace it. That's fine. Just don't get all uppity when I assume you're NOT being one, and take your words for what they mean. That's just silly.Quote:

I hate what Granato did. I think it's a terrible mark on his career. Same with MCSorley.
However, you're free to make inaccurate, asinine assumptions. You seem to be good at it. Might as well stick to what you're good at.
If you think chopping a guy in the nuts is ever anything but intent to injure, you,sir, are a fool. This has nothing to do with Goat. You're bringing in all this to fog the issue.Quote:

I really don't like Ott. I think he's a huge hack. However, if you think that what he was doing, which was basically just stuff done around the net all the time (even in beer league, I mean, come on. If Scotty can't take that, he shouldn't be playing this game) justifies what Giggy did, then I can only think of 2 possible conclusions:
1) You've never played, so you don't understand what it means to go after someone, or to have someone go after you in that manner. Fine. It's not your fault you never took up to sport, but as a man, you should still know what that means. Which leads me to possible conclusion...
2) You're a woman, so you can't understand what going after a guy's groin means.
If that's the case, cool. I love me some women, and you got some fire. We should grab a cup of tea (I hate coffee).
This wasn't Ott going Todd Bertuzzi on anyone, this was hard shoving. If you can't take that in hockey, you really should neither play, nor watch.Quote:

Fish, good work on the wit, but you're wrong... about pretty much all of it.
I've played (mostly as a keeper but as a dman too) since I was 7 years old. And I'm a guy, who has indeed seen many people give a shot to the boys and many people take them. It's called a cup... ever hear of one? Maybe you're the woman, which is cool.
Further evidence to my theories...Quote:

Thanks again for ignoring all the points in my post, though. I do, however, admire the comeback "nu-uh, you are."
Way to bring it back old school.
Offer to buy you tea is rescinded, btw. Just so there's no confusion.
I was going to reply in accordance with Mr. P.I.T.A., but then thought I should just point out that Giguere did not, in fact, go after Ott's "family jewels" from behind. If you watch the video (especially the replay from the center ice view) it's clear that Giguere's goal stick catches Ott's right foot from the front, effectively tripping him, which means this whole argument is based on an entirely false observation by Mr. Monger. Ooops.
First off, if you're not that gifted, then I feel sorry for you.Quote:

Plus hacking someone's ankle is even more likely to cause injury to put someone out games, because according to PITA, cups are bulletproof. He has yet to make that statement about skates, though we'll see. Only time will tell.
Taking a puck off the cup hurts, you're right. A stick does not. Taking a shot off the skates hurts as well.
My curiousity stems from your stance that a stick in the back does not.
Purple colored glasses. That's all it is.
