Awesome brawl in Bruins/Thrashers game

[burstnbloom]

yeah, it was all non fighters on the ice so the fights werent great, but still funny

i would love to hear the Jack Edwards version of events

I'm sure you can guess... Every Bruin kicked their partner's ass. Every Thrasher is a criminal deserving of the beating they are taking and the referees are incompetent that the Bruins don't end the game with a 10 minute Power Play.

God I love Jack.

Please. That was a clean hit by Meyer and then the whole Bruins team mauled him. He had three guys holding him down, two of them throwing punches. Over a clean hit. What a bunch of babies.

After getting walked all over for the last 2 years, I'm thrilled they actually showed some balls.

Rather be the bully than the bullied.

You can't hit a guy 30 pounds heavier and 5 inches taller in the chest with your gloves on a clean hit without expecting to pay for it.

Meyer is a ****ing puke. Sounds like he got what he deserved.

Injured Neil and WInchester last year by submarining.

meyer is only like 5'7 of course he is gonna submarine guys, to him that is just a normal hipcheck

 

[DungeonK]

I wonder what team you're a fan of.

The one that just got mugged in a street fight

Lucic gets hit high in the chest, Ferrence comes in to fight his battle for him, and Lucic hits Meyer clean in the jaw while both are locked up with other players.

The homerism of some of these Thrashers fans is laughable. It was a high hit.


Also, yes it was a Looch suckerpunch... but massively embellished by the diver who started it all with the high hit anyhow, so it's all even in the end.

the same could be said about you, einstein

Great brawl! Love it. Jack Edwards makes me sick, though.

Perspective. After Monday night, the Bruins have been called a bunch of passionless pansies the past three days by their own fans. Something like this had to happen tonight.

FWIW, I thought it WAS two for elbowing. Not sure it warranted that kind of response from the B's, but... see above.

Learn the game, go watch a couple of clips on youtube of chest-to-chest open ice hits, then come back and try again

To be honest, Meyer just has bad timing. The Bruins have been taking a lot of crap around here for playing with a general sense of malaise. Something like that was bound to come out of tonight's game. That said, Meyer did go intentionally high, don't be intellectually dishonest.

meyer got 2 for elbowing? haha terrible call

ANd 2 for roughing. I completely agree with you on here. Yeah it was high but we've seen a lot worse hits before. Lucic had his head down a bit.

 

[Parise09*]

Wow, Jack Edwards and Lucic (for that sucker punch) are a joke.

 

[brtriad]

Now that's a headshot. I'm impressed by Horton actually.

 

[GKJ]

Suicide pact?

 

[C77]

Jack was ranting about a "suicide punch" or something ridiculous....with regard to Savard. I think Jack got into his holiday supply of hallucinogens a bit early this year.

 

[Arthur*]

Wait, Boston had 6 players on the ice?

No, but Atlanta had 7 men on ice the following shift.

 

[fatschoonerrat]

I just watched the YT vid. I thought it was a soft punch at the end by Lucic, too. But look at the angle at the 2:46 mark.

dumb post of the year award!



I don't know what hockey is. I apologize. Let me now return to soccer, that's my true area of expertise. :

Are you really arguing about a fight that grown ass men were in? I understand that you are a fan of the B's as I am a fan of the Thrashers. But really? They are grown men, who cares who won Meyer's hit wasn't high. You should probably learn to enjoy the end of a great game. That you guys even won.

 

[Bruins4Ever]

the same could be said about you, einstein

Maybe you should read my post. I said it was a high hit, and that Lucic threw a sucker punch. I also said that the Little/Savard fight was a hugging match. I actually commented, also, on how I like the way the Trashers are built and enjoy their grinding style of game.

I suppose that post screams homer eh? Keep up the good work, Einstein.

 

[Moobles]

It was high but legal. Ference jumped the gun and everyone joined in, was like escalation on the Korean Peninsula . Even though he's awesome, Lucic had a dirty sucker punch there, though it wasn't that hard- seemed like more of a shot at something Meyer said to him. I'd feel bad if Meyer didn't dive like he'd been slugged.

That was the biggest embarrassment of the whole fight.

[Kitten Mittons]

Why is Savard fighting? Guy had a serious concussion.

 

[Duke749]

No, but Atlanta had 7 men on ice the following shift.

I wish they could have shown a replay of that on the Atlanta feed, cuz they never did. Just glad that game is over. Horrible officiating and worse ice.
