Are the Islanders still in the league?
@ptrep27 Lol, hope they will be shipped in Quebec!
@heroicharrison This is no where near to what Todd Bertuzzi did.
If you think it is you need to be institutionalized. Bertuzzi broke a mans neck! Seriously people who think this is similar to Bertuzzi are fucking clueless!
are you stupid this is the exact same as bertuzzi and bertuzzi didn't break the guys neck everyone jumping on him did but the breaking of the neck has nothing to do with it i can punch u in the face and break ur jaw and you can punch me in the face at the same spot and the same amount of force that i hit u and my jaw not break we still did the same thing
Pathetic homer announcers from Pittsburgh make no effort at all to be objective. They act like they're dating the players involved. Like 2 starstruck little girls- all upset when it happens to them, but no problem at all when the Pens dish it out. I hope Sid comes back and immediately suffers a career ending injury, while these two cocksuckers do the play by play- I'd love to hear them bitch about it. Steggy's a fucking joke, is this really the best they have in Western PA?
i hate the pens as much as the next guy but that was a pussy ass cheap shot by martin complete disgrace to this beautiful game shame on him
@Justcrazy4baseball Agree Bob Errey and Staggy are a couple of homers (Staggy more so then Errey), and I also agree that cooke is dirty, but there is a difference between a dirty play and attacking a player.
@hskates121 It is just you.
@hskates121 No not really. I just sort of "watched" the play and then noticed that Martin dropped his gloves as Talbot was skating away then attempted to punch him from behind. Not blind at all otherwise I wouldn't be on YouTube.
@hskates121 and Talbot never even looks at Martin
Maybe the refs should've tossed Talbot right away after his first altercation in this game? Other than Gillies going ballistic, all the other fights were centered around piss-pounding Talbot. He was never tossed and continued to be attacked each time he stepped on the ice. If they'd've tossed him right away, I'm willing to bet this whole night of Penguin-pounding wouldn't've happened. BTW, absolutely HATE the Penguins…
if that guy wasn't hanging on to dupuis' arm like that dupuis would of kicked his ass sooooo bad lol
@ProdigyTwin steve moore was a marked man, he wouldnt drop the gloves with bertuzzi.. so i guess according to your logic that wasn't a sucker punch either.
i love pascal dupuis so much
Who disliked this? Mario and Bettman?
yeah the sucker punch he didnt throw
Announcers are just a bunch of homers…
Martin is lucky Engelland didn't get a chance to throw em there.
From an angle he kind of got him there
lol all you pens fans. martin in not a dirty player. Martin didn't even hit talbot, he pulled back. Pens announcers make me sick.
Martin was trying to be Bertuzzi, but isn't even good at sucker punches. Classy move in response to a PERFECTLY LEGAL HIT.
Fuck spelling!
LOL YOU'RE A DUMBASS THAT WAS GILLIES GOING AFTER TANGRADI…Martin went after Talbot because Talbot had concussed Comeau
Stupid Pittsburgh fans and commentators. THERE'S NO PLACE IN THE GAME FOR THAT. Well have a look on the hit Talbot put on Comeau. He didn't even have the puck! And it gave him a concussion. It's called answering, what Martin did. Pittsburgh needs to quit whining and man up; pay for what they did. And I wouldn't be talking backing a team like Pittsburgh, all their un-sportsman like conducts they do in each game, and for no reason. THERE'S NO PLACE IN THE GAME FOR THAT.
ok @kendall reichbach just stop watching hockey obviously you know nothing about it.. talbots hit was maybe a .001th of a second early but 100% clean, comeau tried to play the puck and Talbot hit him head on, what matt martin did was cowardly and extremely dirty.. idk if you actually watch enough hockey but todd bertuzzi ended somebodies career from a very similar kind of sucker punch.. a real "Man" would have went toe to toe with talbot which isn't saying much since talbots not a fighter but at least I wouldn't call martin a coward.. so actually no there isn't a place for that in hockey
lol I apologize for my previous statement I didn't even watch the hole video when I posted it I was just going off memory but yeah talbots hit was dirtier then I thought I was talking about a different hit on comeau so yeah he had it coming but still didn't deserve to be sucker punched
Moore elbowed the at-the-time best player in the league, Nazzy was never the same. Why do people think Moore was in the right because of the Talbot play? and yet you crucify Bertuzzi for the same-intended play? Jesus fucking Christ be consistent.
Kendall Reichbach I agree. Dirty is dirty.
By the way, saw that a half dozen players were run. on that one play.
