Rangers & Devils Bloody Brawl Starts Game

[FirstTimer]

Hey guys, I am just coming in this thread to call timeout and have wr50l and KG come over to the bench and lets fire you guys up with a good speech. Now you get back out there and you show them!



Carry on.

Seemed to work ok for the Leafs during intermission.

Flag football belts can make tackles just like real tackling, but it's safer.

They should do that in the NFL.

[ZoneBlitz]

Im guessing James Harrison is hockeyfan's case that suspensions/fines arent enough of a deterrant to dirty hits.

That would be incorrect. James Harrison has changed his hitting style and many times has pulled up on hits he woulda normally delivered with reckless abandon.

So that example sucks.

Furthermore, even if Harrison said fuck the rules ima hit how i want...his suspensions would increase to the point he wouldnt be in the league anymore.

Suspensions is the best & most effective deterrant to stopping dirty play.

Hockeyfan is still stuck in the barbaric stone age and doesnt realize in civilized sports we have rules to keep the game safe.

What do the two fights specifically mentioned in this thread (line brawl and Grabovski) have to do with injuries anyway? Both fights happened because players were trying to get their team playing better.

I guess what I'm saying is GTFO Zoneblitz because we had this discussion about concussions, injuries, fines and suspensions 3 months ago.

Every time this topic comes up, I just want to beat my head into the wall and hope for a concussion so bad I forgot how to get on here.

It is amazing how you guys only come in here when its about the same fucking pointless shit. I don't see one fucking post from any of you useless twats in any of the other hockey threads, yet up pops a fighting thread and you are here. I don't even think you guys combined could name 5 guys from either team, who the leading scoring is in the NHL, who has the most goals, who is the best goalie, etc. You guys care so much about the other stuff in the game, you should be involved in other topics in this forum, rolling out stats. Of course you are not, and even fucktard Zoneblitz is in this thread and he has never been involved in a hockey thread.

[ZoneBlitz]

and even fucktard Zoneblitz is in this thread and he has never been involved in a hockey thread.

Incorrect, i was involved in a previous hockey fighting thread.

[1ke]

I would not be please if fighting went away. I like it. And more importantly, the players still dont mind it. And I say still dont mind it because they are still doing it.

As for this brawl. I lold. I ate that shit up. They're not punching me....

I dont understand why people care so much?

What does punching eachother in the face have to do with head injuries?

Hmm.

Good question.

Kind of funny any time a hockey guy asks a non-hockey guy a question, they reply with a question. Yet when hockey guy is asked a question, he gives an answer and then is told he is wrong.

Because it's a stupid question.

Does it seriously need to be explained what punching people in the face has to do with injuries?

Really?

If so, I somehow overestimated the intelligence in this subforum.

Pretty sure we're talking about two fights which allegedly sparked their team, and certainly did not cause any head injuries. Zoneblitz comes in with the concussion shit, which we discussed three months ago when we concluded that non-hockey fans are retarded.

You don't know that seeing as long term, as NAHSTE pointed out in the other thread, thigns like CTE occur even when there is repeated sub-concussive contact..like say..oh I don't know......punches to the face.

Perhaps OL/DL should be banned from repeatedly smashing their heads into each other.

[FirstTimer]

Perhaps OL/DL should be banned from repeatedly smashing their heads into each other.

Again, covered in other thread.

NFL had discussed getting rid of helmet years ago...or it had at least been some odd talking point by someone. Then again OL blocking=needed for football to function as the fundamental level we understand/play the game.

Fighting in hockey is not needed. If it were people would be freaking ou tbecause fighting is falling off(according to Ravin or leaf forgot which one). But there is no outcry that the game will fall apart or be so fundamentally different it will be unrecognizble...as would be the case with OL/DL not wearing helmets in order to reduce head impacts.

Apples and oranges

[killgod]

You don't need to bash heads to block. Sorry, need to be banned.
