KronwallCRUNCH 5 Report post Posted March 6, 2008 If he would have gotten an assist, I would have credited him with the Gordie Howe Hat Trick...he dropped one glove, and performed one of the greatest body slams in Red Wings history. RAFI=God. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RAFI=God. Wow. My Sopcast feed bailed out 1st intermission and I ended up takin off, so I missed the huge Raffi bodyslam. I watched NHL.com highlihgts and it wasn't on there, so if that ends up on Youtube or wutever, and somebody wants to post it, that would kick ass! Also, I just caught his interview in the first intermission. I think he should just shave his head bald. I mean, if I ever get that old dude balding thing goin on on the top of my head, I'd just shave it off. He looks like he's 31 goin on 55. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Zion 93 Report post Posted March 6, 2008 Hockey players are men. Men, by definition, don't have the self-awareness to groom themselves effectively... making them "pretty". That's what wives are for. Now if I could get mine to lose the tweezers and clippers when hockey's on... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green Wing 26 Report post Posted March 6, 2008 He's doing the bald community proud. Great to see him back. Puzzles me why he drew criticism earlier in the season, sure he occasionally turns it over but his offensive game more than makes up for it, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

awingsincebirth 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2008 Ya, I'm gonna go ahead and apologize to all the balding people I may have offended with my last post. I'm just sayin, I've straight up shaved my head a couple of times, and it feels FANTASTIC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylee 727 Report post Posted March 6, 2008 im not just saying this because Rafalski scored a goal and had a take down last night: im extremely pleased with Kenny Holland going after this guy and signing him to a big contract. He is such an adqute and in some cases, better replacement than Schneider. I can't get enough of this guy, for some reason, he just seems to have that demeanor on ice that just looks like he isnt the type to get jarred in a high pressure sitation or a game 7 esque game.

esteef 2,679 Report post Posted March 6, 2008 Rafalski did exactly what all the other Wings need to do on a regular basis...STICK UP FOR YOURSELF! Don't always be looking around for Downey to come do it for you. Team Toughness baby! TEAM TOUGHNESS!!! Cheers to Raffy! esteef Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ya, I'm gonna go ahead and apologize to all the balding people I may have offended with my last post. I'm just sayin, I've straight up shaved my head a couple of times, and it feels FANTASTIC. Yeah, I'm 27 and the writing is on the wall as far as the hair is concerned. I was gonna shave it (probably still will) but it's almost become too popular. Everyone the least bit balding shaves it nowadays. So I say kudos to Rafalski - he's keeping it real, baby! And there's nothing better than seeing a small bald guy taking out some Blue trash!

Opie 308 Report post Posted March 6, 2008 I love the announcer in that highlight, he points out that Legace obviously has no clue where the puck is on Ralf's goal. But when Ralf drops his glove, and he says, what is Rafalski doing, I almost peed, then when Ralf dropped the guy I almost spit red bull all over my screen!!

I missed the second half of the game, and I hadn't seem the Kopecky cheap shot, but with that video it is clear that was a huge cheapshot! BUt nice body slam by Rafalski eh?
