Jordin Tootoo vs Ryan Wilson

[kypredsfan]

Tootoo's Hulkamania celebration was great At least he did it on his home ice.

His celebration was awesome. All of the built up emotion he's been carrying with the substance abuse program. You can tell he's been waiting to just take it out on someone. And yes, the fans loved it. Good for him for having something to feel good about and showing emotions.

he said on the radio afterwards that he knew his role was to get the crowd going at that point. I am not saying it was planned, but I think the fact we had just been scored on, the fact it was a great fight, and the crowd was in a frenzy, he showed true emotion. I loved it. Much better than danciong and hugging a lot of these enforcers do. A fight is a fight. There has to be emotion if it isn't staged like so many are.

I don't see what's wrong with playing to the crowd anyway. I wish more fighters would do it... hell, the whole reason they're out there is to get people pumped up, right? Why are they getting ripped on for a bit of theatrics?

Good fight and a sick celly at the end

Tootoo is probably the undersized guy that I would least like to fight in the league.

Not crazy about the post-fight antics. Wilson didn't seem to have much of a defensive strategy.

Who the hell cares if Tootoo celebrates. Seriously, I don't get what's wrong with being happy...

If he was trying to show up Wilson or the Avs bench, then I could understand someone being upset. He was just pumped after a great fight in front of the home crowd. Nothing wrong with that.

Yea if it was on away ice that would be the ulitmate trolling, ever he only does this at home its not the first time he has rallied the home crowd like that.

He doesn't ever have much of a defensive strategy. Usually it just consists of "punch a lot and hope the other guy goes down first"

Very good fight. Tootoo comes off like a tool at the end.

Tootoo.
Great fight ... with his rehab stuff ... good to express it with such a celebration.

... may be 5.7 but though and courageous. RESPECT
