People are just looking at the whole "turtle" thing with the Cleary situation. But yeah, I totally agree with you, it's really hard to tell who wins a fight when both players land good hits but one ends up falling first. Getting someone to fall down to me is just kind of getting the las t"screw you" in.

I agree. I view the takedown as a tie breaker. If 2 guys swing and connect and you can't tell who won the fight, then who ever ends up on top wins. But if you get pummeled and then end up on top, you don't really win.

IMO, no one won that fight. Cleary was cut and turtled, but he was already on the ice. Why risk the cut being torn WIDE open when the fight is over and the ref is already upon you?

what did he say!?!?=)

he was like "I dont want to jinx you guys, but you havent given up a goal in 5 periods....how do you manage that?"

and the Raf was like "your just trying to jinx us"

it was funny, but seriously, if he didnt want to jinx them, dont say it. a simple, "your defense is playing well" would have done

lol, the ducks guy tried to jinx the wings in front of Rafalski, and Raf called him on it. I would have been like.."inteview over *****"

I loved that, the announcer dude tried to backpedal, and apologize, and Rafalski was like, yeah, whatever... <_< Raffi was a gentleman, though.

I hope Raffi get a couple more goals in the 4rd. It seems right and fitting.

I have that pic as my wallpaper at work. I think it scared my boss this morning, the look in Nick's eyes.

Do you have the link for where you found the image you're referring to?

Yeah, you can only watch the same three commercials so many times.

Yeah, I guess it gives me time to do my Financial Math homework though. Can't even blink during this game, besides the breaks from the penalty parade.

Yeah, but I always look at fights from the other stand point. If it was the same fight but the other way around player wise I konw everyone on this thread would be all "PRONGER TURTLED! Yeah Cleary won!" Nonethless I'm am very proud of Cleary and his efforts, I thought it was definatly very equal.
