At least this time the anti-American talk comes with a valid reason. Typical American thinking fighting is the best thing about Hockey yadda yadda, it makes sense.
I don't know man, but from what I see on your t.v. and from americans, it is... See, even Synful here, who I wuv wevvy much, seems to think like that.
Hell, you never talk about hockey on ESPN and this was all over the news with the "look what hockey looks like in Canada"... Even in the 1990's, the NHL marketed Hockey as a fightning, American Gladiator type of sport because it was the only thing they thougt that would connect with Americans...
It was funny, when they announced that Jonathan Roy wouldn't be playing, everybody cheered him, and when they announced the starting line-up, when the name of Bobby Nadeau (the keeper who got a whooping) was announced, everybody booed the shit out of him.
Major brawl, its a big rivalry between the two cities... They kind of want to be a big city like us. huhu.
The other keeper went to the blue line and called him out then went back apparently and Roy's son went berserker on him after Patrick himself told him to do it.
Oh God, when did everyone on this board start to grow a gigantic stick up their ass? I don't only watch hockey to see fights, I watch boxing for that. However, shorty got his ass kicked thoroughly and it amused me. If you're offended I sincerely apologize. Also thanks to every foreigner who calls me American, now if only I can convince Americans to stop calling me a foreigner.....
