St. Michael (the Red Wing) 422 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 What pile of crap John Scott is. Going after Kessel? I don't care what occurred beforehand. BS Not only that but comical Bernier and Miller going at it lol. Miller couldn't protect himself if his team depended on it. Sort of dumb all around imo 1 haroldsnepsts reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Euro_Twins 4,485 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 THIS is why we need Tootoo! Scott shouldn't be going after Toronto's star player like that, on a side note Kessel acted like a little ***** about it though, kinda threw a temper tantrum slashing away at Scott then came back and speared him, no class there. 2 St. Michael (the Red Wing) and FireCaptain reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kessel did throw a tantrum but still Scott went after him first and as much fault as it was Scott's I don't blame Kessel except for him 2 handing Scott and then at the end coming at him with a spear. All around dumb. I expect some suspensions all around on this one. SHANNY IS NEAR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SHANNY IS NEAR Ya I agree with you, that's what I was talking about though, him 2 handing him, then when he sees scott is being held back, he pulls a Franzen and spears him. You know Scott is going to have a chip on his shoulder for Phil now, better watch his back, hope he doesn't go full goon on him, cause Kessel really is a good player and I would hate to see anyone get seriously hurt, let alone a superstar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However I think Toronto will for Scott from my viewpoint. The most comical thing about this is Clarkson right? Coming off the bench. Bob Mckenzie tweeted something like most likely a 10 game regular season suspension? If true that hurts lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If true that hurts lol Ya it's an automatic suspension, which is really dumb, considering he had a very very good reason for doing what he did. If I was the coach I would tell the whole team to just get off the bench, they can't suspend the whole team lol 1 St. Michael (the Red Wing) reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, I loved the fights!!! Scott is just a goon. I agree though Kessel shouldn't have been hacking away (as the nhl game announcers like to put it) like Paul Bunyan on Scott then go back and freaking spear the guy, but Scott is just a goon. Loved the goalie fight though, never see that anymore, makes me miss the Det-Col rivalry so much Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 lovingnit that's oldschool hockey, Clarkson is showing a lot of balls for going after Scott. Would not have a chance though, more stuff like this please that's my type of hockey. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RationalHatred 10 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 Nothing wrong with Kessel chopping away. When you're the leading offensive threat on your team and a guy eight inches taller without an ounce of skill to his name decides to grab you, you take whatever measures are necessary to defend yourself. If it means hacking a guy hard enough to break his ankle, so be it. The spear at the end was a little over the top, though. The Wings will be seeing John Scott often this season. If Z (for example) finds himself in this situation and has to two-hand the guy hard enough to break a stick, more power to him; he has more sticks, but only one body. 2 Detroit \# 1 Fan and haroldsnepsts reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No that's the most ***** ***** ass thing I've ever heard. When a goon goes after you your teams own fighter then gets involved. Its as simple as that. The ***** slashing and hacking crap has to go. 2 MidMichSteve and Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 I have no problem with what Kessel did to Scott, talk about a spot picker, no Orr or McLauren in the line-up and he tries to fight Kessel? Come on, anyone that is critical of what Kessel did would have no problem if Zetterberg or Datsyuk did it if Scott had come after them during a game, and hey were in the East now so there's no guarantee we won't see something stupid like this go down. 1 F.Michael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WorkingOvertime 536 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 For those that don't know, this is what happened prior to the brawl. It has also been reported that Scott told Kessel he was going to jump him when they came together for the faceoff. I have no problem with Kessel slashing Scott the first time, but the other times were not neccesary. 1 esteef reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like Toots, I want him to stay. We need him for the less talented games to create spark. But I don't think he would even think about going after Scott. Tootoo 5'9" 199lbs Scott 6'8" 270lbs What was Caryle thinking about butting Kessel out there after a bad fight and having last change. At least send Clarkson out with him for protection. Dumb dumb dumb! Don't get me started with Kessel I think he is trying out for the Lumberjack world championships. Second time in pre-season he started chopping ankles. Although it would make a funny YouTube light saber video. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoalieManPat 1,007 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 True Scott going after Kessel was a dick move but come on Phil. At-least act like you've got a set of testicles (not a joke about his battle with cancer). Ive got more respect for Alex Semin playing the bongos than I do for Kessel. Running like a scared teenager while taking shots at someones ankles. Then he goes and starts jabbing him with his stick while Scott is being held by a teammate and a linesman. I really wish the linesman would have just let go at that point. Kessel would have deserved the beating. Dont poke bears with a stick unless your wiling to get mauled. Same goes for poking no talent goons. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
