As I mentioned earlier, what a skilled hockey play!

 

[elocomotive]

Nice play Mike Green, knocking that out of there.

 

[SLY]

You sure he wasn't diving, Jeff?

He almost dove head first into the ice, not on his own will though.

Where have you gone Sergei Gonchar? *sigh* He was a horrible dman by the end, but a great PP specialist.

Bealge cheap shotted Letang.

Letang gave Beagle an extra shot for a clean hit, Beagle hit him back and got the penalty.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

At least Asham is an actual good hockey player. The crap as he went to the box was a bit bush league but if he knew how bad Beagle was hurt, I doubt he would have done it. I have never had any issues with Asham.

The powerplay looks fine, the puck's just not going in tonight. Plenty of rubber toward the net from good scoring areas. They just need to stop hitting Vokoun with it.

 

[elocomotive]

Little shoving match, but he kinda sorta punched him in the head. Sorta.

My point is just they are both in a pushing match off balance. Could have just as easily been Letang getting the other in the face. Understand the penalty - never be the last or most obvious hit! But seems awfully ticky tacky for a fight, that's all.

He gave Beagle some stick tap applause as Beagle was making his way off the ice.

ok, im playing geetar while watching this, I didnt catch the whole thing. Just going by what the commentators are saying.

I don't like fighting. I have played in leagues where it happens. I have been on both ends of those. I have a bit of perspective.

Stick tapping as Beagle got up and didn't play up the fight win for the crowd either. Big ups to Asham.

Jeesus Vokoun is struggling with those below the goal line shots...

Lol. Yeah, hope he's okay. I don't know if the punch was that bad or if he hit the ice hard.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion. you are not the only one who has played hockey and fought brotha.

Like I said before, Asham def held him up a little on the way down. Had that just been a punch without him holding the jersey. Beagle would have been FUCKED.

Are you joking? You may have the Washington feed but He did the knockout, he's asleep crap on the way to the box. Ovie was very pissed and yelling at him in the box. I forsee an Ovie obliteration in the near future.

Lol. Thought the same thing - no, not his weak spot!!!

Our Dmen can't get pucks on net. Missing badly, then the puck gets cleared because of it.

That's been mostly Niskanen. As long as they keep throwing it on net with a presence in front, they'll score soon.
