Doggy 130 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 We're on track for 7 fights this year the way we're going. 16 games without a fight is it now? McCarty will never see another wings game unless we have a few injuries. What about the GMR's God, Lilja?? I thought he was a legitimate heavyweight? You boxing fans confuse me. Why do you say Mac won't play again? I think you've just said that because it supports your argument. Sadly, there's no truth nor insight into it whatsoever. Firstly, if our fourth liners are as pathetic as you say, surely he could get himself a game or two. Second, do you seriously think we won't get another injury up front all year? You never used to post this much crap UK. What gives? You're better than that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You never used to post this much crap UK. What gives? You're better than that. Maybe when is said Mac wont play again I meant to say hardly play due to his mysterious on-going "groin" injury and the fact Meech can play on the 4th. I just couldnt be bothered to type it out. He wont play much is more accurate...and yes the 4th line is pathetic. But Kopecky just needs games before he hatches out of his whatever-he-is shell and takes the form of a Dallas Drake. And no we wont get another injury this year. Lilja will see to that, like he saw to Patrick Sharp, Bredan Souray and Jared Boll. And I always post crap whenever anything that could slightly relate to Downey is brought up. He is God. And until everyone see's without his manlyness and general amazingness we will fail just like we did in the playoffs last season I wont stop (and yes I am acknowledging Downey had no role in us winning the playoffs) Edited January 5, 2009 by uk_redwing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drake_Marcus 890 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 Looks like Brashear needs to show Semin how to box. Reminds me of a joke Semin once told me of his future wife, Malkin. "My wife is terrible at karate, but man oh man, you should see her box!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dekeyuk Report post Posted January 5, 2009 I'd die of embarrassment if I saw any of our guys slapping someone on the ice. Or punching them in the balls from behind. I don't think we have to worry about this thank God! Neither Z or D act like spoiled punks out there and can handle themselves in other ways. The more I see this clip the more it reminds me of Blades of Glory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BAFGA 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 I think he's lacking Semin. He seems like he's got more estrogen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Secret 304 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 Rumour has it that Semin just had his nails done and was angry at Staal for chipping his new acrylic finish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 And to think we were all impressed with Semin after giving Crosby the business in the media and then proving it with his stats on the ice earlier this year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadow47 1 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 He did fine for a guy who is a sniper. I'm not seeing the slapping. The "bongos" are just rapid punches that aren't necessarily connecting--if you're not used to fighting it's easy for your hands to open when you're hitting someone. Get a reality check peeps.

While I understand defending a finesse player when it comes to dropping the gloves, you gotta admit that looked like watching a 4 year old turtling from his 5 year old sister's temper tantrum attack....

P. Marlowe 748 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 Conclusion: - Semin isn't fighting manly - He should be more manly - It's important to hit properly - It's nicer to watch manly men hitting properly than unmanly men slapping Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kira 451 Report post Posted January 6, 2009 (edited) Hell, even I can throw a punch better than that. That was embarrassing. By the way, anyone care to join me in a rousing chorus of the "Meow Mix" theme??? Edited January 6, 2009 by Kira Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lomekian 201 Report post Posted January 6, 2009 Aaah s***, i shouldn't have watched that in the office! I'm only lucky that my boss had leaft early, otherewise I'd have had to explained what Iwas laughing so hard I couldn't see at. I think Semin should get an award for best comedy performance...brilliant Not that staal was so much better for a much bigger guy. I think our entire lineup would do a better job than that...as we say last year, dats can throw a punch. 2 guys even the 2009 version of mac could beat the crap out of! Though fair play to Semin for at least standing up for himself in some way.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernWingsFan 854 Report post Posted January 7, 2009 Well, the thought was there for Semin, the effort was there as well, the technique, not so much. I kinda compare it to this. Ah well, we all have our goof ups every now and then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted January 7, 2009 Semin should take some pointers from Fedotenko, who TKO'd Colby Armstrong with one punch tonight. Who said euros can't fight in hockey? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
