Hey I hadn't realized the Sabres went back to their old uniforms. Those were the uniforms I grew up watching.

I think the best brawl in recent years was the culmination of the Redwings Avs rivalry. That had a great goalie fight. Sabres seem to be getting in a lot of fights lately.

This would be good.

Get a whole bunch of sabers swinging wildly and maybe most of the Senators will lose their heads in the melee.....


Oh. Hockey game. Just a hockey game. No live Senators?
D*mn.

Lindy Ruff showed just what a coward he was by sending 5 brawlers out on drury's slip and fall. (that was not a hit.)

Probably Ovechkin, 12 years younger and 15 pounds heavier. Forsberg really isn't a brawler, not afraid of the mean stuff but doesn't usually dive into it either.

Dave Schultz was the greatest.

I grew up in Boston. Terry O'Reilly was the man! He tangled with The Hammer a few times. Plus he lead the charge into the seats at Madison Square Garden to "educate " some Ranger fans back in 1979.

Not that I know of, but there's always a large pointless oval-track-fan thread...
