Lupul vs Subban

[The Kremelin Wall*]

Because no one likes Subban except for Habs fans. When he gets knocked out in his career (and it no doubt happen), everyone will be laughing. Kinds like Kane on Cooke last season.

Except people hate Subban for being better than any player on their team. Envy is one of the strongest emotions.

Just enjoy the blind hatred. I actually find it amusing.

Blind hatred?

Lupul was taking his helmet off and Subban just came in throwing punches. How can you call that "blind"? There's a reason that people called it a ***** move. He started hitting him while Lupul was taking his helmet off because of the visor.

I actually saw the opposite, let's see the video.

You saw wrong...the youtube will prove it once it's up.


Not trying to make a big deal out of it because it was a good scrap. But Lupul got jumped when he was in the process of unsnapping.

16 seconds.

I'd like to think you're joking, but something tells me you aren't. lol

That's not why people hate him but you can keep telling yourself that.

Subban is such a little *****. Won't fight anyone on the Bruins, but will fight Joffrey Lupul who I'm not even sure has an NHL fight and of course he throws a punch while Loops is taking his helmet off.

They are the exact same weight, Subban is one inch shorter and it's not like Subban has this amazing NHL fighting resume. You ***** when he won't get in a pointless fight with a goon and you ***** when he gets in a fair fight in a tied game. HF is such a joke sometimes.

 

[NoLocus*]

Subban looked like a ***** there going after Lupul as he was taking off his helmet.

 

[Balls Mahoney]

I give it a draw with perhaps an edge to Subban. Impressive showing for both players. The more I see of Subban the more I like him.

 

[habsman56]

Wait, why is a non-fighter being attacked for not fighting a heavyweight?

Subban isn't a fighter, why is he a ***** for fighting other non-fighters?

Happened when 6.8 seconds left in the period IIRC.

What's on the seats at the Bell Centre?

I don't need to tell myself it, blind haters like yourself tell it for me.

lol Still a bummer.

Funny, fans of different teams have come on the Habs boards to discuss how they don't understand the hate and that they like Subban.

And to put Subban in the same post as Cooke. Wow.

What is the general consensus of this board again? Oh that's right, 98% of the people chirp the guy. And yes, like I said, there will a lot of mockery, just like Cooke received.

It's funny because before the NHL, Subban never fought much either. Suddenly he has 4 in a little over half a season.

 

[MeowLeafs]

Agreed, bit weird for a start though, it looks like there both gonna take the helmets off then neither does lol

Oh, I see what you did there

 

[thatshype]

Don't exaggerate the "hate" for Subban, either. I'm a Leafs fan and I definitely think that Subban is among the top up and coming defensemen in the league. He is easily my favorite player on the Habs.


But yes, he hit Lupul when he was undoing his helmet. Simple as that. No blind hatred towards a talented D-man, but thats how it went down.

fans

 

[Fel 96]

No commentator FTW.

 

[KristoLeblanc*]

Actually Subban wanted to get his helmet off but Lupul's fake move of removing it was weak.

It doesn't take more than 1 sec to remove his helmet. Looks like Lupul was trying to remove his makeup and polish his nails... Remove it or keep it, but do your move.

Win for Subban.

Subban would have liked to fight, but the Bruins were too concerned with taking out our goons Spacek, Pyatt, and Hamrlik.

 

[Communal Blood]

Wonderful generalization there. 98% of people here. Care to share how you came up to that percentage.

Doesn't matter anyways. Most Habs fans nowadays find it mildly amusing.

Just open any thread on Subban and count if you wish. Mildly Amusing, yes. Yet you all rush to defend him.

 

[macavoy]

What an awesome fight. Who cares about the fake helmet stuff, as a result of both of them faking or whatever, they both were helmetless for the majority of the fight. That makes it entertaining imo.

Especially the end of the fight, when it ended, they both were going down, but they were both swinging till the end. For non fighters, it was a great fight, a good show. One of the more entertaining fights I've seen.

I also like it because Lupul is probably trying to impress Burkey and show some truclence since he was just traded for.

Only part I didn't like, was that it was in retaliation to a nice hit by Lupul on Subban. I hate this fight cuz I got body checked mentality.
