Cash wasnt big on 'the Code'. When he snapped, he snapped. He'd throw 'em even if you were down and out.
I cant find the story but Terry O'reilly does tell a beauty about when he went at it with somebody. At end of the fight they both went down but out of the corner of his eye he saw Cash coming in and Terry basically laid on top of the guy to protect him from Cash giving him another pounding.
There were guys who fought as the 'norm' and when it was over it was over. There were guys who fought to put you in the hospital. Cash was the latter.
That was Dave Tiger Williams who Cash had already kicked in the face and was trying for another.
Tiger Williams on Cashman: "During one scrap, O'Reilly had me down on the ice and Wayne Cashman was trying to kick me in the head with his skates. He got one in through my helmet, leaving a deep cut which required six stitches. But it was obvious he wasn't going to leave it at that. It was then that O'Reilly said, low enough to escape Cashman's hearing, 'Put your head under my body, I'll shield you.' I guess he believed that Cashman was capable of kicking my eyes out."
