You laugh?

So, if Backes is crouched and Ritchie’s coming upward on the hit, it’s not physically possible for Ritchie to miss the shoulder and hit the head?

Because that’s exactly what the video shows.

You must also think denial is a river in Egypt?

Well if there is a river named denial you're swimming in it if you can't see that Backes' body is subjected to impact and starts to move before Ritchie's shoulder even comes near his head.

Your response here can be summed up as: I don't like what you're saying, so I'm going to assume you don't know what you're talking about.

Which kind of says it all. You aren't willing to address my point, so you'll go after me.

I felt my point still stood despite your totally outlandish criticism - which is to say there was nothing meaningful for me to engage with there. It's on you to put forth something reasonable. In the height of irony though, you are guilty of all things you criticized me of.

So what is your basis for saying Getzlaf wouldn't use his strength in a fight? Where's your evidence? You're just spouting off a statement with nothing to back it up.

Hey friend did I mention that I invented bitcoin? I said so on the internet so that mean's it's true!

My evidence is his usually desperate flights from potential fights, says a lot. I am not sure where you are going with this bitcoin business, maybe get some sleep.

So...you have no experience watching him fight, you merely conjecture on how he'd do if he got in one.

Could a potential alternative to your theory be that Getzlaf is a superstar player that would rather not risk a hand injury fighting a fourth line scrub? Hmm.

Either way, be it science, or law, or whatever, hard evidence and inference are not one and the same but you are trying to pass it off as such. Maybe I'm not the one who needs a nap.

My reasonable response is that you seem to think Getzlaf is trying to engage in a slap fight, and it's absolutely absurd to suggest he is unable to use his size and his strength.

Especially because this isn't actually a boxing match, where you can break down fights to those kind of minutiae with accuracy. They last a handful of seconds, and often don't even involve players getting a lot of clean hits in.

And the fact you're admitting you have no experience watching Getzlaf fight further reinforces the absurdity of your claims. You're admitting you don't know much about him, but you're suggesting you're somehow an expert on the matter at the same time and can reach these conclusions.

So no, it isn't on me to put forth something reasonable, because you're the one who holds the burden of proof here. You need to prove your statement.

The refs got in the way. Nice try. Getzlaf backs up because he was taking potshots to the face AFTER the refs intervened. What's he supposed to do with his arms restrained? Present his cheek to Chara to continue to pound his face in? Give me a break.

I was referring back to Edmonton's players from last year's playoffs. Not Chara. Whether Getzlaf would've fought Chara or not we'll never know but you've made up your mind and spun the events to spin the narrative you came into this thread with.

He fights guys bigger than him. That is spot picking? what a dumb argument .

It's not, though. Just because a guy is bigger doesn't make them competent with the gloves off. Example: Brian Boyle, he's one of the worst fighters i have ever seen.

Let say Michael Haley a top tier fighter goes up and fights Cam Fowler, that's not spot picking? I mean Fowler is bigger, right?
 
Sojourn said:
Yeah. When you continually reiterate that it's late, without any actual evidence to back it up, that's a metaphorical screaming. You're upset no one is listening to you, so you keep repeating yourself and hope you actually get the response you want.

It's not too different from when a baby wants attention. They cry. This is you. Crying.

"metaphorical screaming"... "you are upset"..."baby wants attention"... "crying"... Ahahahah
Oh boy... And you have 44k posts... Haven't you learned that writing this kind of stuff instantly shows that you are losing it? Pull yourself together. :biglaugh:

That's a bit of an exaggeration, fowler is on semin level of fighting... most the guys bieska fights nowadays are either legit fighters, or players that do fight occasionally hes not jumping johnny hockey or something, tho everytime little johnny waves his hands at the refs I wish he would.

his 17-18 fight card so far
Gudas- pretty tough customer
Andreof x2 - don't know much about him but he fights everytime ducks play kings
Wilson- another tough guy in the smaller weight class

You may want to go over your history in this thread before you try making claims like this.

All you've done in this thread is attempt to mock other posters, and insist that it was a late hit. And no amount of laughing emoticons is going to make it any less embarrassing that you can't actually put forth a good argument, despite many posts in this thread.

You got all of that from a video that most ANA fans say is too unclear to show much of anything? :laugh:

No point in discussing further as we are seeing two different things.

Boston is one of the top teams in the league right now even without tough guys on the team. Chara is old, McQuaid is injury plagued and Miller hasn't really become THAT guy who steps in for team mates.

Tougher? No......better? At this moment one of the best in the league.

If you don't want to get whacked in the back of the leg, don't take runs at star players on the other team.

So, you mean to say that Ducks players, to "avenge" their "honor" - so to speak - whack players in the back of the leg? Ahahahah so honorable!

And please... If Henrique and his 51 points career high qualifies as a "star player", there's probably 100 Gretzky's in the league now. Seriously.

He's right, actually. It's just impossible to tell whether it's a parallax issue, or it's a result of the hit.

There could be a point in discussing this if you'd offer up a video that looks like it was filmed this decade. But come on, man. If this situation were reversed, you'd scoff at the idea that the video you posted is incriminating evidence, and you'd be right to. That's garbage quality. You can barely see where one player begins and the other ends, and you certainly can't see it in enough detail to know when and where Ritchie's shoulder first made contact.

It's a two way street there, bud. Ask questions, get answers. Funny how that works considering you're just blabbering on about 90 yards from making any sort of sense.
