NHL

I had no idea that it’s ok to ‘down gloves’ and batter each other until a Matt Rempe clip popped into my YT feed last week.

Naturally I then had to watch all his rucks :rolleyes: :D, big lad but seemed to get a pasting from Olivier (is that right?) in his last one. Very entertaining, but how is this part of the game? Very odd for someone who’s never seen NHL before.

It's deemed safer than letting the players take revenge during the game.
A similar thing happens in rugby where it's described as ''a bit of handbags'' and rarely results in a serious penalty.
Unlike football, where they collapse like a dying swan if anyone so much as comes within 6' of them.
 
Nice friendly game between the two New York teams last night.



2 seconds into the game and it was only the second fastest fight at MSG.

ah right.
i've been to a few rags-isles games. at one, the fans got into a brawl and - i am not making this up, i witnessed it - the row of seats they were in collapsed.

It's unusual for the fans to fight isn't it?
 
Two goals for Matthews so far tonight.
Up to 68 now with 3 games to go.
 
The US college hockey championships are taking place now. Most of the players have already been drafted by NHL teams. 2 teams from Boston in the "Frozen Four"...
 
Matty still on 69 after last night's defeat to the Panthers. One more chance tonight to get to 70.
Bruins lost last night meaning Panthers take the division and will play Tampa in the first round and the Leafs will now have to face Boston.
 
Kucherov gets his 100th assist.
Matthews still on 69 with 20 mins to go.
Hit the post with his best shot.

leafs finished a bit weak. islanders won 8 of 10 but i don't like their chances against carolina.
 
I don't fancy our chances against Boston.
We've lost 7 straight games against them.
 
48 hits in the first 20 mins.
Leafs will start the 2nd with 1.50 mins of 4 on 3.
 
Urg...
Leafs 4-0 down at the end of the second.
I've seen enough, I'm going to bed without watching the final 20 mins.
