TSN: VIDEO Mike Richards 'colorfully' chirping Hossa

[deeshamrock]

A friend of mine emailed this to me , it's from the TSN Feed with a post whistle comment by Richards behind the net after he shoves Hossa against the boards:

'You're f'ng diving all over the place, it's f'ng embarrassing.
I know from what his teammate (and opponents say) he chirps and gets into their face all the time. Annoying as hell.

That's a large part of what is missed when he's out. That intensity , the swagger, all of that.

And the fact (per the NHL tonight) his 55 playoff points since 2010 leads the NHL , that hurts too.
Hopefully he's okay enough (even sub 100%) to be back Tuesday. He's really missed out there, just not the same without him.

I wish there was a way to get the uncensored comments, I bet there are players (like Mike) who are great at chirping.
I would love to have heard what he said to Kessler and Burrows last year....

From Scuds post game comment that Richards seemed fine right up until game time. So hopefully, whatever it was (something during warmups maybe) is minor.

Richie

Maybe part of it was the back to back games thing. That was a really nasty hit. I don't want to give up on him playing until they officially tell us he's done. They wouldn't send him out there with a concussion so I don't worry about them playing him with a head injury.

It may be denial, but I don't care. They need this guy.

His passion and willingness to lay everything on the line for his teammates is unrivaled by anyone.

Richie is my boy! He needs to come back, he's been our best center.

He shoves Hossa who says "what are you doing""
to which Richards replied 'You're f'ng diving all over the place, it's f'ng embarrassing.

Maybe it's just me, but it looks like he's talking to the ref, not Hossa. The ref is the one who said "Richie, what are you doing", then Richards says what he says, then the refs said, "didn't you see the hook?".

Hossa is a little *****, just like most of the Hawks. Lol Crawford standing up for toews what a joke lol.

and of ALL the games for Quick to get pulled, it had to be the one where there was a legit chance for a goalie fight

...man I miss Richards already two series' in a row now where a worthless plug gets to take out a key center.

Still wishing Bernier went down and threw him on his ass.

Is there a video of the whole goalie incident? I missed the game last night.

That's correct, MacCauley did say that to him. He was referring to Robyn Regehr's hook on Hossa.

Really interesting. MacCauley let the hook go, but he used it as leverage against Richard's argument that Hossa was diving.

Give and take.

10,000 times more preferable than "Beat L.A."

At least its more original.
