robat 13 Report post Posted October 14, 2011 I don't think he really pounded him. He got all helmet and missed when the helmet was off. 2 Cheveldae32 and Uncle Danny reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not so much the punches landed, it's the fact that one guy fed the other some lefts and the other guy turtled until mommy came to break it up. 4 hooon, Hockeymom1960, esteef and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's better if the punches land but the fight was a nice sentiment since it happened to a guy like Lapierre. Get him next time Abby. McCarty-Lemieux his ass.

newfy 695 Report post Posted October 14, 2011 Abdelkader on the Lapierre fight: "He asked me to go and I said yes. It was good to give our team a spark, especially after being off." The team was playing like s***, and he realized it and went out there to spark them. Needless to say it worked and the difference was noticeable,anyone who wants to say fighting has no effect whatsoever on a game is clueless. I think Abdelkader has really cemented himself as a solid middleweight his last 3 fights or so and has looked feistier this year than he did last year. When hes on the wings with Bert backing him up hes a real bruiser. Look forward to a lot more of this from him and Bert, that third line has been sick 5 Hockeymom1960, T.Low, Detroit \# 1 Fan and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T.Low 1,011 Report post Posted October 14, 2011 Nice thread, Esteef. Too bad nobody got the beginning of the fight. I'm not that familiar with Lapierre, even though I live in Greater Canuckistan. How does he rate comapred to (Door)Matt Cooke? For example, if Cooke is the Benchmark of Douchedom at a 10 rating, would Lapierre be an 8? 7? 1 55fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hooon 1,089 Report post Posted October 14, 2011 I wish I coulda seen the fight. The Abby quote is awesome too. Even more pathetic that Lappy was the one who challenged him, then turtled and only tried to hit Abby when there was 3 refs in between them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even more pathetic that Lappy was the one who challenged him, then turtled and only tried to hit Abby when there was 3 refs in between them. From someone there, apparently they dropped the gloves, each landed a few but than Abby landed one that kinda dropped him and thats where the cameras come in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

esteef 2,679 Report post Posted October 14, 2011 It sounded like Lappy was trying to bait Abby into fighting so he would get the extra 2. Even after the fight he was pointing up at the replay like "What did I do?" esteef Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newfy 695 Report post Posted October 14, 2011 Get off your podium, already. Was there a noticable difference before and after? Yup Are you the type of person who would deny this effect of a hockey fight to all ends? Yup Does it feel great to have proof that the wings players also agree it can have a spark, contrary to some people's ridiculous thoughts on here? Definitely 8 Tman77, wings1110, redwingfan19 and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
