Are hockey rinks safe spaces yet? Just checking in.

Kyle Okposo had his chance to avoid the fight, instead he shoved the linesman away ....bad decision . Sometimes better to be a live chicken ....well , you know the rest of the story .

It's a pretty sad state of affairs when someone gets attacked on here for simply admitting their sympathy for an opposing player who has a history of concussions and related suicidal thoughts and now might be facing yet another.

Who was attacked? I missed that post. Unless I have that person on ignore. The only person getting mild pushback for being an ignorant bore, is the guy with 25,000,000 listeners.

I just looked the last two pages over again... and wondering the same thing ? I don't see any attacks .

That's a fair statement.
But I'll take this from a certified Hockey Legend over an older fan
"Old players get older, Young players get better"

Okposo has never been a tough guy. He could have and should have avoided this fight. I think he saw an opportunity to take on a guy who has run his mouth in the wrong direction that he happened to outsize by quite a bit. He got overzealous and showed his lack of fighting experience by not protecting himself well at all. He's not a victim here. He should have used better judgement. When you have had concussions as bad as he has, this part of your game needs to be eliminated. It's no longer something you should be doing at all. That said, that was not your typical NHL fight punch. Most guys pull that front hand on the jersey ticky tack bs nowadays. That punch showed up ready to work.

I got super pumped.
I loved the perfectly placed right cross that landed squarely on KO's chin and dropped him like a bad habit.
It was totally awesome.
Can watch that stuff all day.
Two hockey players dropping the mits and squaring up.
Love it
Deangelo looks like he can handle himself when it comes to throwing hands. Makes sense. A natural born dick like him probably has had a lot of practice over the years

Most people rejected his message
He really got under the skin of the Sabres fans and some are absolutely livid in their PGT. They're conceiving plans of signing the biggest goon they can find to a 1-day contract next season just to end Tony's career.
Okposo's history with concussions is serious, that probably spiked the outrage.
His reaction to the last one he had was frightening. But he didn't have to drop them with DeAngelo, sometimes you need to know when its best to just walk away.
That’s every Friday night at the dive bar in south jersey tony grew up in so no one should be surprised he loves this stuff.
However if you watch the video okposo first shakes his gloves taunting Mika to go ass that he is knowing Mika isn’t fighting. Almost like a what are you going to do about it thing. When tony stepped in it was really for Mika who went in first to zuccs defense and good on him.
I think Tony would be anyone’s huckleberry if he gets the chance to be.

Reminded me of the Tyson spinks fight. I paid 40 dollars for pay per view and went for some Orville popcorn in the kitchen came back and fight over. I was pissed .

And yet another reason to love this kid. Cannot wait to get him in the playoffs, that garden is going to go freaking nuts for this kid.
Agree with the “Okposo shouldn’t have dropped ‘em with his history.”
Tony D is building a fast rep around the league. This is going to be fun, this kind of stuff gets this kid freakin pumped .
Averaging what? 16 mins per game? +1 & 3 points last five games. Diggin’ it.

They shouldn't be mad it was a straight up fight, no sucker punch, nothing. It happens sometimes when you drop the gloves.

Ouch! Did he kick your dog or piss in your cereal?
Really liked what he did last night. Not many guys on the team would do that.
