titanium2 867 Report post Posted April 21, 2010 Yes, but was there a distinct kicking motion? Did the kick "propel" the octopus? We might need video review on this one. Plus the refs said he had intent to kick. 1 55fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hak 21 Report post Posted April 21, 2010 All that bravado from the Hawks players back then and it resulted in a 5 game exit against us. What about this year? They went a step further with the mural and postings with the cup etc and now they are down 1-2 vs the predators in round 1. When will they learn!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T.Low 1,011 Report post Posted April 21, 2010 Chicago learned last playoffs. DO NOT TOUCH THE OCTOPI! I don't think they did actully learn. Haven't you seen the pic of the mural with Toews and the Stanley Cup? Where have they been all these years, how do they not know these things? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Louisville 112 Report post Posted April 21, 2010 Fiddler threw the octopus that hit the ice after the anthems down the hallway before game 1 and the Wings lost game 1, so... True, but it I think it means overall series bad luck. I mean the freak injuries aren't helping them are they? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That in and of itself should assure the Wings a victory for having the coolest fans. The Fiddler and Bryz incidents are only icing on the cake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titanium2 867 Report post Posted April 21, 2010 Anyone remember similar moments to this one? Of course, Burish's commercial. Cody's shameless throwing of the octopus into his own bench... . Don't know what he was thinking then. Last year, against Anaheim, Pronger touch the octopus when on the ice. That's just off the top of my head. Any others?

I don't really think this trend of a player on the opposing team touching the octopus has started until recently.I don't really remember anyone before Cody McLeod in 2008.
