uk_redwing 495 Report post Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) Last night was the first time Detroit had 3 fighting majors in a regular season game since October 30th 2003 against Nashville when they had 9 majors, including one against Tootoo. If anyone wants to re-live that glorious game and the ass kickings by McCarty, Fischer and co. here you go: http://www.dropyourgloves.com/Fights/GameEvents.aspx?Game=25149 I'm gonna post this one because it was an all time fight classic: Edit: best post this one as well...

GMRwings1983 8,789 Report post Posted March 23, 2013 I remember that game and still can't believe how shocked I was that it happened. All the fights were individual from what I remember. Meaning, they occured at different times in the game (no multiple fight scrums) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,458 Report post Posted March 23, 2013 I don't think I enjoy anything more than watching Scott Hartnell get punched in the face. What a clown. 2 Detroit \# 1 Fan and F.Michael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 4,914 Report post Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) sadly I do believe we lost that game...didn't Shanny fight Tootoo? edit: Nope it was Hall.... Hey BTW, listen to the guy commentating with Ken Daniels, I think its Ray Ferraro! You can really hear him well on the first McCarty fight...how ironic, I mention him in the Murph thread and then one of his broadcasts appears in a different thread....nice!

rrasco 1,312 Report post Posted March 24, 2013 My stat was so interesting it found it's way into an article on MLive. That's funny, I wonder if Khaaaaan! lurks the boards. It is believed to be the first time the Red Wings have had three fighting majors in a regular season game since Oct. 30, 2003, at Nashville, when they had nine. http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/2013/03/red_wings_braced_to_face_bunch.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FireCaptain 563 Report post Posted March 24, 2013 (edited) There's several topics that we have discussed here and then I have seen them on Red Wings Live pregame, Wingspan or MLive.. I do believe we have admirers. Edited March 24, 2013 by FireCaptain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted March 24, 2013 I wouldn't be surprised if Khan or some other media folks lurk or post here. It seems like a lot of stuff we discuss is cleared up even by Ken and Mickey during games (ie LGW hating on Abby on a line with Datsyuk, then all of a sudden we hear Ken Daniels implying that Datsyuk wants Abdelkader on his line).

I sure as hell wouldn't be surprised...afterall, this forum is one of the most popular on the internet, someone famous, somewhere HAS to know about us...or, like me, knows some people here and there, or knows someone who knows someone...if they aren't lurking on here personally, you are guaranteed to have the Kevin Bacon effect...six degrees of separation...

Nev 1,085 Report post Posted March 24, 2013 I miss Jiri As for media frequenting LGW, I doubt that the big names do that - they have low paid researchers to do that for them 1 zetterbrunner reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Highly doubt it, most media people do have some connections to internal sources maybe not to the degree of guys like Dreger, Lebrun and MacKenzie but still. Discussions we as fans have are a different beast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
achildr1 255 Report post Posted March 24, 2013 (edited) Just reminded by Wife about this game. We met online because we were both Wings fans...she actually told me about LGW. This game was within two weeks of our first date. She taped it but I got to see it live, think she had to work. This is the craziest game we had with a team that wasn't the Avalanche. I've always remembered when it was because of the sequence of events of that time Btw...How bout those few rights in a row by McCarty...dang. I miss Jiri for real.

kipwinger 8,458 Report post Posted April 11, 2019 Fun stat for fight fans, George St. Pierre retired a few months ago with a 26-2 record, having avenged both fights he lost. Upon retirement he'd beaten every man he ever stepped into the cage with, he's a 4 time (2 Division) champion, and defeated 8 champions or former champions. And he did it all without the use of PEDs.
