hey, hockey's on

[esls79]

Am I the only one here who thinks Kessel could take Scott? Sure, Scott has the reach, but as far as fighters go, he's a teddy bear. Kessel is like a cornered badger or rabid wolverine - fierce and unpredictable.

zomg! Kessel's jersey! get Shanaban on the phone!

Kessel doesnt have the ball to take on scott

Yep. Normally I would think Kessel's a bitch, but if somebody way out of your weight class tries to jump you over something you had nothing to do with, you deserve some leeway. Self-defence IMO.

If both guys were fighters, or Kessel had done something to deserve getting beat up, maybe a different story. But he has no responsibility to 'man up' against Scott in that situation, and honestly, if he doesn't back up and slash, he's probably getting KO'd.

What the hell was Scott thinking? Handle the Lucics of this world, not the Kessels.

That being said Kessel is a bitchboy for going in for a spear once the linesman has Scott tied up.

Just lame all around. Should make for an interesting next game between the two teams though.

You would think a team called Sabres would, you know, have the sabers...

 

[AceKeptic]

Am I the only one here who thinks Kessel could take Scott?

If Kessel could have taken Scott, why didn't he just DO IT, instead of swinging his stick at him like a poor man's McSorley?

Barbara Ann Scott maybe...

Youtube goodness:

I added to the goodness while watching it by adding some ass-kicking music from our Media Player.

For great brawl music, may I recommend any of the following:

"Chainsaw Charlie (Murders in the New Morgue)" - W.A.S.P.
"Freewheel Burning" - Judas Priest

Feel free to add anything else that's long and loud!

so him spearing him after makes him what?

By poor man's, I assume you mean African poor man's as he didn't target the head with the slash.

Not really condoning what Phil did, but Scott really did have it coming

And Clarkson went full retard with that maneuver

Hell, I think Amanda gives Snott a run for his money.

 

[blindbaby]

And on a personal note -- meh. That's hockey. I hold no malice against Buffalo; that's just the way hockey plays out sometimes. Fucking drama queens around here....lol

 

[awaz]

I wouldn't give Kessel any for the initial lumberjacking, but he deserves a couple for poking a caged bear.

 

[sabresfaninthesouth]

I don't think Kessel deserved anything for the first swing because Scott was coming at him unprovoked.

However, once Scott is engaged with one of the Leafs (didn't get a good look who), Kessel takes another two-hander at Scott's ankles. Then the spear later on. I doubt he gets any suspension though, despite the match penalty.

For Scott...please suspend him. Please!?!

 

[Rossinole]

I don't see what the big deal was about Kessel's "spear." It looked more like a light swipe with the blade. It's not like he two-handed it with the butt of the stick into Scott's gut and Scott went down injured.

I think it's mostly because it's a total bitch move. Scott is tied up by Clarkson (I think) and a lineman and then Kessel has the balls to come up to him and jab him with his stick.

That's part of why I don't think Kessel gets anything for the match penalty. Had he really hit him hard with the spear I'd be of a different mind.

That's exactly why we got him (The Miller incident) The Bruins announcer mentions it at the end of this video. I'm not a big Scott fan but I will say since we picked him up we have a winning record against the Bruins and Lucic plays the game like a choir boy. He saw what happened to Thornton.

hey boss ... i briefly saw the goalie fight footage from last night but saw people saying that Bernier was tuning Miller (btw, isnt that a mortal sin?) and no sabre stepped in to stop it

is this a reflection of what his sabre teammates now think of him or did they just back off and let him fight?
