TSN: Feature on Kronwall

[Sameheda]

Was at the Game where Pronger got hit by the slap shot that stopped his heart. There was an initial cheer to see Pronger went down, then it got very quiet. I would not put it past people to chant you got Kronwalled if he connects with a guy in the Joe injury or not. It is the mob mentality unfortunately, until they realize the injury is serious some people are going to probably do it.

There are several fans that find it classless that we already chant Todd Bertuzzi given his history in the league. Can't please everyone. None of the Kronwall hits have really shelved people for a real long time despite how fired up everyone gets over them, so I could see them chanting while the guy tries to get his bearings. But rest assured if this becomes something they chant every time he does it one of these times we are going to probably be doing it while a guy isn't feeling too good, if it becomes clear something really continues to not be right, they will hopefully get quiet like the Pronger case.

Was that before or after Pronger destoryed Holmstrom with a hit from behind to the back of his head? If it was after, I can almost understand it a little bit.

No he was still a St. Louis Blue.



He was roughing up Lapointe. It was only a brief cheer but everyone, get up you faker, once Brett Hull (yeah still on St. Louis) started losing his mind and the Wings players also started to freak out the building got pretty quiet. They did cheer him off the ice as you heard. But my point was in the instant after I have a feeling the you got Kronwalled chant will erupt and until it seems the guy is in dire straights I don't think the fans are going to care.

It is Pronger though, I mean after all on the youtube video even the title has Karma in it, like the dudes heart stopping is some kind of karma... um what?
