GDT: CAR/NSH: No Need to Knock on Wood This Time

[MrazeksVengeance]

One of these days Svech is going to get suspended for steamrolling one of these guys that cheap shots him. It’s probably coming soon since he’s already frustrated with his lack of goals recently.

HONESTLY, I WANNA SEE SVECH FIGHT ANOTHER STAR PLAYER. SHOULD BE DIFFERENT THAN THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED.

The 02 team weren't exactly bruisers but they weren't afraid to play the body either. The league was so different back then almost everybody had to have some tough guy element to their game

Wait... no... Chris Dingman

An ineffective overreaction to the Scott Stevens devastation of the lineup in the 2001 playoffs: having Dingman, Langdon, and Boulerice in the 2002 org and not one suiting up for a playoff game, even though that same Scott Stevens was the Round 1 opponent. We didn't question it then, but how ridiculous does that seem now?

Reading this post and thinking “I didn’t think Jesse Boulerice was in the organization during the Finals run” (he was) led to a Google searching spiral that ended with me on his LinkedIn page. VP of Wealth Management at Merrill Lynch in Raleigh. Got into it to help people with money having seen teammates handle things poorly. Good for him, didn’t know he stayed in the area.

Still occasionally plays in pickup games in the area even. I've seen a few too many idiots try to goad him and Bates into stuff in meaningless games.

How does anyone think that is a good idea? Fighting on skates isn't exactly easy and you are trying to do it against a guy who did that for living.

AH YES, THE TESTAMENT OF MORONS. POINTLESS, YET VERY VALIANT EFFORT.

Honestly, I'd rather see him cultivate the "I'm not gonna waste my hands on you but I might slap you in the balls" approach that Ovi has recently adopted.

If you haven't seen the footage, find it. It's awesome and hilarious.

Otherwise known as the "That's my puck, I don't know you!" approach. A classic.

I RESPECT THE FIRST PART, NOT THE STICK IN THE BALLS THOUGH. NEXT TIME WE MIGHT HAVE PLAYERS FART ON EACH OTHER'S BALLS.

RULES OF ENGAGEMENT HAVE A PURPOSE.

Oh, the rules of engagement were most definitely followed. Ovi did the crime and he did the time.

"$5000 to the NHL slush fund to hit this punk in the huevos? Okey-doke!" *WHAM*

Maybe you have to be Ovi-level to get away with it, but still. I lold hard. Instant karma, and better than a concussion for the idiot kid.

Reporter:Why did you do it?

O: (*thick Russian accent*) He's too stupid to procreate, I made sure it wouldn't happen.

Counter-point: this is possibly what the kid does his decisions with.

I think even the Bruins players would admit that something like that was going to happen with Frederic eventually. It happens to all pests that run their mouth at some point. The refs read the room in that situation too. Yeah OV deserves a major, but this rookie piss any is egging him on so it’s 2 for roughing or whatever dumb shit call they made.
