Hey CC,
Oh Ya Iggy sure wailed on Ohlund? If Ohlund really wanted to he could have killed Iggy. Just compare reach and size on the two. All Iggy could do was land a couple of body shots to Ohlund's equipment and helmet. You must not play hockey CC cause to call Ohlund a chicken shit is bull. Those so called midsection punches were a joke, it made Iggy look like a little kid trying to fight a man. If you call that a win then I'm 12 and 2 in my rec league, which my team mates would laugh at. Actually I'm 3-2-9 with one nearly broken nose this season. Ohlund is TOUGH, he isn't afraid to get in the corners and lay the body or drop the gloves. He did with Iggy. Iggy is lucky Burt wasn't there to sucker him.
You want to talk about hitting posts, Have a look at game two. The NUCKS hit the post twice and the crossbar once. Gee I wonder if that would have been a different game had those gone in. NUCKS would be up three games to none right now.
I think you mean if it wasn't for the NUCKS fantastic powerplay they might be down in the series, cause ya the flames stink.
Without Kipper it would have been a sweep with two shutouts!
Everyone that hates the name NUCKS is either jealous or has too much time to waste on what teams should be called. They will always be my NUCKS! I suppose Canuckleheads is no good either?

The full blows from Iggy. Ha Ha! Come on. The size difference is huge. Iggy looked like a midget next to Ohlund. It was like Ohlund was holding back a child. No one wants to hit a kid. Ohlund is not a fighter and obviously neither is Iggy. It's a joke to even call this a fight.
The hit on Iggy was clean. The ref was standing right beside them when the so called boarding happened. I really don't like to see hits from behind but having said that, when you turn your back to the defenseman you are fair game. If you didn't notice the pros don't have a little stop sign on their backs. If you have the puck and are against the boards just because you turn your back to the play doesn't mean you're home free. If iggy didn't touch the puck it would have definitely been a penalty for hitting from behind. A boarding penalty requires at least a two stride charge into the hit. Was Ohlund supposed to drop em with Iggy for delivering a clean hit? Iggy should have gotten an instigator penalty for chasing after Ohlund.
The Burt sucker was meant as a joke. Although Big Burt would destroy Iggy in a second. In a real hockey fight that is.
Iggy best keep his head up in front o the net tonight.
Oh ya, I've been watching the games they show on CBC. Ya some have been tight like the first game in Vancouver. That was a close one.
Go NUCKS Go
Nucks in five now!

Another Hipbaser just sent me this. It's from last year's playoffs but I thought it was pretty darn funny.

There was no way that hit was clean. Hockey players know when they hit a guy from behind it's never clean, especially when buddy's got his head down near the boards. A cheap shot, definitely a 2 minute penalty if it had been seen.

Do any of you guys even play contact hockey? Ohlund's hit was clean. I think had Ohlund wanted to give Iggy a dirty one he could have pushed Iggy's face through the boards. You can't turn your back when you got the puck. It's not like Ohlund ran him or something. The ref probably told Iggy to take care of it himself or quit faking. Iggy sure didn't look shook up as he went after Ohlund in fact he looked a little like Burt chasing Moore. This is hockey after all, not women's hockey. At least the refs realize these are men out there. I wonder where people got the idea that hockey should be all finess. The ice is hard, the puck is hard, the equipment is hard and the players are hard. I love rough full contact hockey and this series is full of it. Some of the best hockey so far.
Also I think Iggy's weight and height stats you found are a bit padded.
Hey bean, it must be hard for you to watch all this great hockey with no OIL in the picture.
I agree with ya sherp who ever does win is going to be sore.

Ouch... anybody just see the ending of the Canadiens game? Who wants to go down to Rue Ste. Cathrines and turn stuff over whilst lighting things on fire. Sounds like a good time, no?

Ya that was brutal..........
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

I hope Kovalev's wrist was broken , because if it wasn't, i'm pretty sure Souray would like to break it .
