BeeRYCE 2 Report post Posted July 7, 2008 Great replacement for Ruutu. Ruutu's more of a pest and a better player than Cooke, but they took the best possible replacement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueMonk 102 Report post Posted July 7, 2008 Matt Cooke is my least favorite NHL player. I'm just sayin'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dump-N-Thump Report post Posted July 7, 2008 Cooke > Ruutu Cooke is the ultimate pest.. The best part about it, is that he is like Maltby, wont back up his bark.. and Cooke barks ALOT . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeeRYCE 2 Report post Posted July 7, 2008 Cooke > Ruutu Cooke is the ultimate pest.. The best part about it, is that he is like Maltby, wont back up his bark.. and Cooke barks ALOT . No way... A bunch of NHLers were asked who they hate the most in the NHL... It was probably 40% Avery and 60% Ruutu. Ruutu is the ultimate pest and his skill level is higher than Cooke's. I always thought that was unanimous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edicius 3,269 Report post Posted July 7, 2008 I love how Shero says he's "capable of providing offense for (their) hockey club." Yep, all 23 points he had in 78 games last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superman54 91 Report post Posted July 7, 2008 As someone mentioned, he is exactly like Maltby. I ask myself everyday how the hell Maltby never ever drops the gloves, and yet, gets away with his comments scratch/bruise free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
