The Pipes, The Pipes are calling..

The Blackhawks announced today they signed Danny Bois to a one-year deal. I know absolutely nothing about this kid. According to Hockey-Reference though, he's 6'1" 200 lbs. and a winger. He played in one game for the senators in the '06-07 season, got just under 4 minutes of ice time but 7 PIM... nice. The fight he got into that game was against Donald Brashear, so either Bois' got balls the size of planets or a deathwish.

Oh, and here's a video of him beating up a goalie...

Anybody who wants to fight a golie is ok in my book.That looks like our old Fraser in the background lets ask him.

With a goalie fight and more time in the box than on the ice, he’s gunning for the lead in the next installment of Slapshot.

more like an upgrade

Kaner could probably fight better than walker, so anybody replacing him is a plus. Nickname for Bois: Ogie Ogilthorpe

Haha, looks like he thought Joey McD tripped him. Awesome. Someone should tell McD where the term “dropping the gloves” comes from.

Holy crapaloosa, batman

You know, having grown up as a goalie, and all the cheap shots you take at forwards lingering in the crease, it’s surprising that someone hasn’t gone off and waylaid one sooner.

Anyone remember the Toronto game where Patrick Roy slow-footed Mike Gartner behind the net? Afterwards Gartner (who was trying to avoid Roy) was kind of laughing in disbelief at Roy who sort of stood there like a Cheshire cat.

Of course, there was always the Vernon-Roy fight where Vernon went all MMA on Roy and grabbed his left pad and sort of tossed him down. Priceless stuff.
