How many more injuries can my team take before they completely implode? And what the hell was Dziurzynski thinking trying to take on Frazer McLaren?

I just don't get the commentators from tsn, could be they be anymore biased towards the leafs? the guido looking guy in the intermission who compared losing lupol to losing spezza karlsson and Anderson should give his head a shake.

TSN = Toronto Sports Network

However, I will say that it is nice to see the Tor vs Ott games to have some relevance again.

More importantly, at 26 seconds into the game. THIS is what I don't like about hockey fights. The staged, at the drop of the puck fights. Has nothing to do with tempers boiling over or the heat of the moment.

As someone who's been in a large share of hockey scraps—it's like any other competitive sport, there's often a lot of shit talk that leads up to games, especially games between teams that are so close geographically. Don't forget the warm-up before the game as well, there's a lot of shit talk that happens between guys at centre ice while they're waiting around for 2 on 1's etc.

I get that. Just my 2 cents that I don't like the staged "you wanna go? who wants to go? you're going to go? Okay, when the puck drops" 3,2,1 and scene.

Yeah, I totally get that too. But when your pay cheque depends on you beating the face off someone, it makes it a bit easier to justify. :lol:
