OT: Let's Remember Some Guys

[True Blue]

Barnaby is my favorite. I was at this game that I'm posting and it might have been the most amazing thing I ever saw at a hockey game.

The Barnaby - Lyle Odeline moment remains one of the funniest things I have ever seen or read about in hockey.

At the time I really thought it would be more important for the Rangers to try to develop him rather than play McQuaid or Smith, I kind of still do.

What did he say to Yawney before he went to the locker room?

How do you develop perfection?

I'm not the biggest fan of fighting but that was a lot of fun. I feel like a lot of people that romanticize fighting, think about fights like this, but they're pretty rare. At least in the last 20 years. That was fun to watch. Watch two goons give each other noogies not so much.

Trent Yawney? The steroid thing?

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Trent Yawney? The steroid thing?

Yeah when he was coach.

I meant after the fight.

The fights were pretty good until the NHL neutered them. By Y2k, the fights were basically side shows, which consisted of bear hugging until they got tired or somone tripped.

I give Garth Snow credit, he’s been a POS at most things he’s done in his adult life.

If nothing else, he’s consistent.

Well, maybe that's the issue. I didn't really watch hockey before Y2k.

That I cannot recall. But Odeline going crazy after the Cornelius comment is classic.

Sabres were also rebuilding around that time and had Hughes , May , Ray , Boogey Man Boughner and Barnaby...you did not take any liberties with Hasek or any of the kids . Those games were a lot of fun to watch . I forget the game but I recall Ruff sending out 5 goons one per shift and they all fought off the FO ....pretty sure it was Ottawa or Flyers...was a wild game .

@Edge Oh you...

You became a fan during the dark ages?

No wonder you are so salty...

Haha, started watching 00-01. Probably later than 75% of this board at this point though.

I haven't seen that brawl in years. I remember that happening and talking about it on an AOL Hockey chat room. If that was in the 70's both benches and the stands would have emptied on to the ice.

 

[Voodoozz]

I've just come across this on Youtube. This line was so nasty.

My first year of watching hockey, and I had no idea how rare this was, especially Jagr's MVP season.

 

[RangerBoy]

The good old days.

This year was John Davidson's first year in the booth with Jim Gordon and Phil Esposito. His voice was so different. JD went to HNIC in Canada the following season.

Dave Maloney got smoked.

Look at Steve Larmer starting trouble. The Hawks had a few guys who became GM's. Doug Wilson and Darryl Sutter. Bob Murray too. Wilson could really shoot the puck.

I remember watching this that night and going crazy. Christmas vacation from grammar school.

Jason Doig, anyone?

Jason Doig, anyone?

You mean the guy that gave Lindros his last concussion?

Recall Cloutier challenging the entire Isles team?

Langdon giving the licking to Chara and Brett Lindros . That was kind of fun to watch . I watched a lot of Langdon in junior...always a crowd favorite.
