GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted January 13, 2010 Rick Nash isn't much of a fighter, but I like how he started whooping up on Backes last night after the spotpicker decided to pick a fight with him. Too bad the refs got in there to bail Backes out. Team USA has more to worry about than just Team Canada in the Olympics. There are a handful of teams better than the U.S. I wonder if he'll fight Sidney Crosby next? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are a handful of teams better than the U.S. I wonder if he'll fight Sidney Crosby next? Wow, GMR you hard on for Backes is clouding your vision. Whooped up on him? The best punch of the fight was a right hand to the side of the face/visor that sent Nash's head whipping back and caused him to duck for fear of getting tagged again. All Nash did was throw wild punches that connected with nothing, cept maybe Backes helmet, all while the refs were trying to break it up. I'd hardly even call it a fight let alone say somebody whooped up on the other. I'm starting to wonder about you man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest GordieSid&Ted Report post Posted January 13, 2010 Isn't it funny that some who don't know what they are talking about think Backes is a spot picker when all he does is fight guys his size and that are talented. s***, you would think Backes is supposed to be ******* Joey Kocur or something the way he gets razzed. FOR THOSE NOT IN THE KNOW-----_BACKES IS SUCH A GOOD PLAYER HE MADE THE ******* USA OLYMPIC TEAM! He's not a heavyweight and doesn't pretend to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whatever Backes envisioned from Nash, it didn't look like that's what he got. Nash looked pissed off there. Besides, with that visor on, what else could Nash's punches have connected with. Yeah, I know Nash also had one on, but you can't blame him for anything he did there. Backes is the one who started s*** for no reason, and once again with a superstar player like Toews. I have no hard-on for him, I hate the guy. You're the one who likes him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wings_Fan_In_Exile 3 Report post Posted January 13, 2010 I think it's kinda funny how he's been doing that- although I do wish he was at least a better fighter. If it fires up Team USA even a little then good, as they need allllll the help they can get next month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted January 13, 2010 Anyone recall his bout with Salmela? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKgesqKw9aA I'd venture to guess that was Salmela's first, and probably last fight. was that Backes stick? why didn't he drop it earlier? it looked like they both took some shots to the face from the stick alone.

They may have a few more stars and have a few more players to choose from but the American talent pool isn't especially deep. I hope his fighting comes in handing for you guys at the Olympics.
