I know this is Ice Hockey, but in Field Hockey there is a saying that goes something like this: 'If you miss the ball get the leg.'

Anyways, i guess Tonya Harding's bug came and bit this coach huh?

A real old school hockey player would have done it for free. Today's athletes are coddled way too much.

In ice hockey they're a little friendlier about it, if you can't stop the puck stop the man.

Correct. Comments like Kerr's are best left to the players themselves to do the policing. The coach should have known enough to keep his trap shut. Now it is possible that what was said in the room didn't remain in the room, and that is never good.

Hockey question: If you've got Gary Unger around, why would hire Steve Shannon?
Boy, could Unger skate.

It was real cool when Jimmy Hart & Andy Kaufman put the bounty on Jerry Lawler's head, and guys came in from other regions to collect.

Oldschool wrestling was so cool!

I could never figure out why the Polish Hammer was so devastating. Now the camel clutch...that was devastating.
Figure 4 leg lock was also a favorite.
Do you know if Jake the Snake is dead now? I knew he had a huge crack problem.

Yes those moves were awesome!

I think Jake is still among the living - rent the 'Beyond the Mat' DVD for some genuinely creepy insights into The Snake.
