Todd Bertuzzi is reinstated...now there is a guy that would be a perfect fit for the Hawks. He is a prototypical "Power"forward.

I'd be ecstatic if we got him. He's a monster.

He made a mistake, and payed the price for it.

 

Almost killed him? GMAB.

 

I'd use the Brad Isbister (snicker) joke, but Tom already used it...

 

Keep on talking, though, you're hockey knowledge is really giving me a good laugh.

To tell you the truth, that's one of the reasons fighting has to stay in the game.

 

If I remember the play correctly -- as I was watching the game on NHL Centre Ice -- Moore refused to drop the gloves. It was a real choppy game, lots of shots going both ways. And, no one wanted to go at it with Bert. So, Bertuzzi gave him a cheap shot. Not saying it was right, just saying, you'll see a helluva lot more of that if you take fighting out of the game.

:huh: Your confusing me. 1st you like to make a mockery of my hockey knowledge, and I admit, I don't have that much and don't try to act like I do, but now youe saying cheap shot's are okay? Please explain your stance further...

Re-read it. He DIDN'T say that.

I understand but I would not like the Hawks to be seen as "head-hunters". I know, it was 1 mistake, but look at what he did to the guy. He almost paralyzed him. I'd like to invite any of you to get a punch to the head from Bertuzzi and then let him fall on you slamming your head into the ground. IMO, I wouldn't want the guy. As far as pure hockey skill goes, he is one of the best. He is an absolute awesome offensive force but I personally, do not tolerate cheap shots. If Torri Hunter was a free-agent and the Sox had a need in CF, no one here would sign him...

Don't you think we would hav said the same thing about A.J Pierzynski a couple of years ago? :ph34r:

Where the f*** did I say cheap shots are Ok?

Find it in there. I don't see it, but maybe I can't read as well as you can.

If Torii Hunter came at a reasonable price, hell yeah I'd want him. I don't see a lot of guys on the Twins coming out and saying, "I hate Torii!". In fact, I'm pretty sure he's a favorite over there.

 

It's all relative, but at a good price, hell yeah I'd take Hunter -- CFers with as much range as his don't come around very often.

No, but do you recall how he was a total prick, and everyone on here hated him?

Being a prick and giving cheap shots are far different.

Kicking a trainer in the balls isn't a cheap shot?

That's personal and besides, I thought they threw that rumor down. And also, it is not in the field of play and in no way effected the outcome of the game, did it?

What does it have to do with the outcome of the game?

 

So now it's, cheap shots so long as they don't affect the outcome of the game.

 

Keep on backtracking... Still waiting for you to find where I said that cheap shots are Okay. I better stop waiting, or I'll be here a long time.

SF1, you have no idea what youre talking about. Basically, if you knew anything about the game of ice hockey you'd understand why fighting needs to be in the game. TO KEEP STICKWORKERS IN CHECK. But you, of course, with your wealth of hockey knowledge should know that.

 

 

However, I don't think you know what a stickworker is...

So what are you basing this on again? I do not know for sure what a stickworker is but common knowledge would say that it is probably a puck handler. I don;t know, I could care less. I have admitted that I honestly don't know much about hockey but I am a fan of the Hawks. I know the basics. I know some stuff outside of the basics. Just because I am a casual fan doesn't mean you have the god-given right to badger me with your "vast knowledge" oh great one. GMAFB. How about, instead of trying to be an asswhole and rip the casual fan trying to be included in the conversation, embrace him and teach him more? Get off my f***ing back...

Edited by SoxFan1

Am I going to need to step in?

Look, I was out of line in saying that, I admit it. I guess I think that you think you know alot about hockey and try to show off a little and some of the stuff you say makes no sense for someone who claims to watch a lot of hockey to say.
