Welcome back, hope you had a good time.

So ya, i've been in the dark all this time. From what I heard Moore wouldn't fight so Bert skated after him and punched him in the head and stuff. I also heard that bert fell on him after..so which one broke the guys neck.

whether he fell or purposly went ontop is up in the air. i kinda feel NHL players would be able to keep themselves up at that point.

If he was in any other city like Detroit or Toronto people wouldn't be so harsh on him.

Acually i feel if he was in one of thoes cities and did that thier home fans woulda jumped over him as well. but i feel same punishment woulda implied.

It's a pitty to see him being booed in many of hte other arenas just because he's such a dominate force on the ice(although this year has been the ****).

He is boo'd because he is a dominate player, thats part of hockey tho. But that is NOT the only reason. He's booed much of the time becaue he's a cocky arrogent ass. And you better believe the next time Canucks meet the Wild in a playoff game, minnasota is going to remember thoes cocky words he told them last year.

Well, I can't say bert will be missed much in the playoffs. Sure, he could easily be the deciding factor in the games but he hasn't pulled his weight at all this year. He doesn't have the same fire and intensity that he had before this season. It'll be a chance for other guys on the nucks to step up and fill his role.

he's going to be missed in the playoffs. thats the time when you need all your players, and expecially your top ones, and its a time when players like bertuzzi really step up tho.
But yes, it is going to be a chance for other guys to step up and work thier tails off to cover for him. and thats going to serve them all very well.

I feel sorry for Moore as well. Damn, you make a mistake by hitting the league's best player and bam, your neck's broke.

this is the only thing you said that really bothers me.... Moore made no mistake, Moore did his job, There was nothing wrong with it. And to think he got his neck broke because he didnt want a confrontation is quite sad really. (and on a joking side, best player wasnt even in that game cuz he wasnt on thoes 2 teams )
