He definitely targeted the head. I agree with the refs here.

I can't believe I didn't notice how funny the title of this thread is when I first clicked on it.

Yeah, I think the refs got this one right.

Isn't that exactly what they are trying to stop?, looked like a blind side head shot to me, at first i thought the guy who potentially charged/boarded, was getting ejected and i thought that was BS, but the hit by brown is definately ejection worthy

Careful, pengo, or we'll have our goalie beat up your cheap-shot artist "Cindy" again!

Crosby Sucks!

I can't wait for this "piece of s***" to join our team.

Come on, bro. We all want our future franchise dmen to have a bit of a mean streak in them, if smith add 20-25lbs of muscle and learn how to defend properly at pro level he will be great, and i'm saying this even though i love nylander and everything he had done for the swedish national team through out the years...

Todd Bertuzzi. 2 goals, 7 assists in 7 games. Read more I've always liked the guy, and he's seriously becoming one of my favourite Wings. Like Mike said, his work defensively, his willingness to back check has been superb so far this season, the best I've ever seen in that regard. Loving the second line.

Hey, I remember him from his Spirit days!

I don't like the sound of that, but if that's what he's thinking I'm guessing Flip is gonna be moved to the third line. He can act as a defensive stop gap for them, while maybe Bert can bank a couple in off Modano's shinpads.

In the end, this is sort of like asking if you would rather someone: 1. hit you a couple times a minute with a sledgehammer over the course of 10 minutes (typical football hits), or 2. continuously strike you with a roofer's hammer (normal sustained hockey hits, along the boards etc), and also drop an anvil on you once (lesser occuring open ice hockey hit) over the course of the same 10 minutes. Either way, it's going to suck and do a lot of damage.

yeah i really don't want what happened to Bertuzzi's game mentally happening to Smith's i know it obviously isn't on the same level both in severity and intent but yeah just an example

How many goals have you scored at the NHL level?

I was kind of thinking it must be a cardboard cutout of Babs, because why would he be up in the stands during warmups? But then, this leads to the question of why on earth someone would make or obtain a lifesize cardboard cutout of Mike Babcock and bring it to a game.

Heh? Those exist? Invictus, what are you on?

Is that what I said?

No sock puppet here. Just a reasonable Wings fan who thinks you're very very stupid. LOL at you.

It is irrelevant considering the fact that I could say that about any poster on this board when they give another player s***. More like irony. You are critiquing players for exactly what I could critique you for. Ergo, ironic. Invictus is no sock of mine. Go ask a mod for our IPs and I will guarantee that they aren't the same. But if you would please like to start some more theories as to why someone may agree with such a "silly" statement of mine, go ahead. Doesn't help your argument any. And go ahead and neg me all you want. I have 230 meaningless points anyway so I have plenty to spend on posts that apparently LGW doesn't like, which in itself is pretty meaningless as well.

You have no idea what my point is. I didn't say once that people can't critique or give players who are better than them grief.

You act like Burish can't call out Pronger because he is so terrible in comparison, which was the whole point. If he can be berated for it, why can't you?

You are acting like he is a scrub in comparison to Pronger, which is ironic because you are a scrub in comparison to Burish. So he called Pronger an idiot? Boo hoo. He said he would punch him? Boo hoo. He said he played terrible? Well I didn't see Pronger as much of a gamebreaker out there except for that wonderful high sticking penalty that caused the first Chicago goal. Big ******* deal.

What NHL team do you play for again?
