w00t! well done Jimmy

[stevkrause]

He wouldnt have pulled that s*** if we had someone that would kick his ass on the ice.....oh wait.......HOWARD

I just really wish Bertuzzi would have just come over and layed him out...

This thread or the topic at hand has nothing to do with Ovechkin.

Oddly enough, he's one of the people that complains about the constant comparisons... except when he makes irrelevant comparisons.

I don't know if anyone else posted this, but I love this quote by Z:

Crosby’s frustration level seemed to reach a boiling point in the final seconds, leading to him cross-checking Zetterberg in the back in front of Detroit goaltender Jimmy Howard(notes).

“I knew it was him without turning around,” Zetterberg said.

LOL

I saw Jimmy come in with his glove," Zetterberg said with a smile, "and Crosby wasn't there anymore."

That didn't sit well with Crosby.

"I don't know what he was doing over there," Crosby said of Howard. "There are a couple of players battling at the end. ... I don't think that's where he should be."

Does this count as instigating a fight within the closing minutes of a game, because it sure as hell looked like that's what Crosby was trying to do.

Anyway, totally badass to see Jimmy not put up with Crosby's s***.

There was no fight, thus no instigating of a fight. Crosby *could* have gotten called for it had Zetterberg decided to do something aboutit, but he didn't.

Also, nice job Howard! Way to jump in and yet another great game.

[Hockeymom1960]

You've got to be just completely whacked out on heroine...
How can you say Howard was "losing it" when he was pulling an opponent off of one of his team's star players when the opponent was on his fifth and sixth cheap-shots to your star's back and head??!!? I'm impressed both by his save percentage and by the fact that he didn't hesitate to help Bert go after a known prima-donna who was trying to injure a teammate.

If any player in the league did the exact, identical thing to Cindy after losing the game and the time had expired that the little Pengo-***** did to Z, they would have gotten a suspension.

End of discussion.

Don't waste your breath. I think Carman is sid's boyfriend.

No doubt.

BUT HEY, it was a team effort! Kronner was the first one in with a cross check of his own on Crosbee, but that was'nt good enough for Bertuzzi, so he had to get right in the CrozGrill and gave him a little gloved-knuckle sandwich up his nose, then Jimmy just wanted him more as Kronner and Bert got distracted with Pittsminucia.

I can't believe it took 6 pages for some Bert and Kronner love! Way to go Todd Bertuzzi.

My name is Andrew and I love Jimmy Howard.

Hello Andrew. My name is Darryl and I aslo love Jimmy Howard!

[Barrie]

Great comment from Z about Crosby's actions in the last seconds of the game.
``I knew it was him without turning around,''

[13dangledangle]

s*** i just watched it again on youtube and wow sid the skid went crazy on him for what reason now?? holy moly! However I thought he was freakin' dead when Big Bert quickly glided through my screen lol sids lucky!

[NvrFrgtRussian5]

yet another topic?

[kylee]

I just really wish Bertuzzi would have just come over and layed him out...

i agree with this. bertuzzi should have plowed crosby over but that probably would've started a brawl, but who ever said that would be a bad thing?

[Kira]

Well, at least Henrik has a little more class than Cindy. He said he didn't think Howie belonged there. Suck it up, you whiny ass fool...you got just what you deserved. Shut up and take the punishment.

[T.Low]

Where did see say that? I watched the post game interview with Z waiting to here that and I never did. He simply took the high road of respect.


And Bert reacted perfectly with a gloved fist face wash and backed Crosby up toward the boards, its just that Jimmy wanted him more. Anything more from Bert would have been an over reaction. Props to Bertuzzi.

[Hockeytown0001]

Loved his comments.

If you watch the replay again, i think the thought past bertuzzi's mind cause he was the first one to come to Z's defense, but he was met by Guerin so he didnt have a great chance. A face wash seemed fitting for a guy like Crosby though. I think Bert did the right thing, even though it wasnt what we all wanted to see (Crosby getting beat down). No worries though, because we have Howard to take care of the dirty work these days haha

[13dangledangle]

That was great, but I do really wish Hank would of punched him right in the face though! Gino your next.
