I Saw What You Did And I Know Who You Are

Not to dwell on it too much because it's a relative non-story, but it is a slow off day on this long road trip, so it felt post-worthy. It was somewhat encouraging this morning to read that some national bloggers feel the same way a lot of us do regarding Ryan Kesler's turtle act against Andrew Ladd and his whining to the media in the aftermath of Saturday night's game. Behold Two-Line Pass of Puck Daddy:
Ryan Kesler sure came off like a punk after that fight with Ladd.
"He's a coward, he'll always be a coward," he said after the game. "At least he was man enough to hit me when I was looking this time."
Know who's a coward? Kesler, for that lame takedown before he even threw a punch. You got beat, Kes. Act like an adult.
Thank you very much for the insight, Mr. Pass. Now that we all have closure, vindication, and validation regarding this issue, let's all move on and start to focus on tomorrow's tilt versus Deadmonton.
P.S. - Not to beat another dead horse, but I'd also like to personally thank everyone who made it out to the Whirlaway on Saturday. It was an unbelievable turnout with a lot of great people that made the ugly loss somewhat bearable. And, as Sam pointed out, Saturday 100% confirms our shared feelings that the St. Louis trip is going to be an absolute shit show (in a good way- kinda).

New rules for fighting
1) Failure to remove your helmet if you wear a shield results in an extra 2 min minor for being a pussy.
2) There should be a rule making illegal to take a player down like Kessler did, it was on purpose and it looked like he was trying to drop Ladd on his head. Alot of players wear shields and just like VERSTEEG!!! and Ladd did in their fights removed their helmets in order to engage. I understand that in fights you lose your balance and fall on the other player but to lift up the guy and try and drop him on his head should be an attempt to injure and be a match penalty (believe this happened to Eager last year as well)..some one will get seriously hurt unless a refs start calling a penalty in these situations.
by Bargeman68 on Jan 25, 2010 12:21 PM CST reply actions 1 recs
agree to disagree
There is no way a take down like that can be a penalty…to much room for interpretation. Kesler was about to have his shit handed to him and he figured it out w the devastating blow he took…He jumped off the bull b4 being destroyed. I like the helmet rule.
Interpretation...........
is what referees get paid to do!
A pussy’s actions speak for themselves, and Kesler was talkin’ real loud.
I agree with the helmet one. take off the shield if you want to start throwing haymakers.
Matt Cooke is a turd burglar. He burgles ALL the turds.
Couldn't agree more
That’s the first thought that came to mind when I watched that video – blatant attempt to injure on that one – if you wanna puss out and go down, grab the jersey and bring him down on top of, or next to you. That was a scary dangerous intentional take down the kind of which could not just injure, but kill a guy. Take the helmets off yes, but crucify the guy for take down like that by a guys leg.
Did anyone notice...
It looked like Kesler was trying to kick Ladd in the face with his skates after the takedown?
"My Father's name is Jack, and my mother's name is Daniels..."
No. I have no idea what you're talking about.
Second City Hockey Most Postingest Poster of 2009
NOW STOP IT RIGHT HERE
In a case that blatant
I could see a penalty being called. A fight by definition is “intent to injure”, but if you classify it as a flagrant foul kind of thing (biting your opponent in a boxing match kind of thing?)….yeah. As it is, the takedown was just….well, it was just Kesler being a pussy, then being a bigger one talking about it after the game. It’s pretty obvious that everyone who saw it/heard it knows that’s exactly what it was. I’m now officially embarrassed to have such a pussy on the US Olympic team. Wait, there’s no fighting in the Olympics, right? Ah, doesn’t matter, he’s still a pussy.
I like that Q didn’t send Eager or someone else out late in the game to kick the ever-loving shit out of Kesler when the score was out of hand. That’s a chip I’d just as soon save for later. But does that dude ever have an asskicking coming to him.

From Jesse Rogers
Kesler on Sunday:
"We’re not talking about — I don’t even know his name — that guy anymore," Kesler said.
Wow, Ladder sure clocked him a good one. Concussion symptoms now too?
I seriously hate that Kesler is on the US team
He’s making me want to root for Canada. Brett Favre already made my football postseason miserable (as his mere presence on the Vikings made me have to root for the fucking Cowboys), now Kesler could ruin the Olympics for me.

Ladder has spoken
[…] Andrew Ladd said Monday he and his Blackhawks teammates “all had a pretty good laugh at it.”
[…]
“It’s pretty to tough to take when we square off and he takes one shot and then decides he wants to bail on the fight and really pretty much just throw me down,” Ladd said. "I think anyone who has seen both videos can make their own conclusions. The first one we kind of ran into each other and he took the worst of it. It’s too bad but I’m not going to lose any sleep abobut it. The last one was pretty obvious. We squared off, he took a shot and then didn’t really seem to want to fight anymore.
“I’m a pretty honest player and I play the game hard and fair and if he wants to whine about it go ahead. It seems like he had a lot of stuff bottled up. He was talking lots before but didn’t really say much after the fight. He was pretty quiet. I’ll do the rest of my talking on the ice.”
Also, Huet will be starting.
Good for Laddy, I can't laugh though
What a bunch of pussies up there. Who took down Dunk by his hair last year?
the Canucks are extremely talented
in making sure that the discussion around games is diverted instead to personal, off-ice grudges. I gotta hand it to them— they helped me cope with a brutal loss by providing me with something else to focus on. With a few choice words, Kesler has managed to:
- distract the Chicago media long enough so they don’t go running around saying the sky is falling
- distract the Chicago fans from wallowing in self-pity and instead channeling all negative thoughts towards Canuck loathing
- distract other bloggers so that, despite giving the Hawks their largest loss this season, it’s Kesler who gets “Minus of the Weekend” instead
So thank you, Canucks, for being the classless turds that you are. Please continue to go bogart all the bad press you can possibly receive, and we’ll see you on March 5.

Seriously, though, going into the game the Canucks wanted to “make a statement” that they’re a good team. They pull off a pretty well-executed game, beat us by the largest goal margin we’ve ever lost, and what does the coverage around this weekend consist of?
1) Kesler calling Ladd a coward
2) How the entire Canucks organization snubbed interviews on HNIC because of MacLean’s comments on Burrows

b) Dunc was trying to eye gouge him

This is the right clip
Because Kesler mentions his broken nose.
The hit is a little dirty, probably a charge, when they slow it down you can see that he doesn’t hit Kesler with the elbow though.

That’s the clip they had on TSN that I copied here. The camera angle used in the youtube makes it look worse than the TSN. At full speed you can see Ladd is forechecking and skating towards the puck, when Kesler comes across his own zone. Ladd’s description makes sense to me now.

The “beating a dead horse” gif guy might be able to help with that.
so......?
dirty hit, at least from that angle, but that shit happens all the time in hockey and you never really hear about a player taking one in the face, bailing dangerously from the fight, and then calling the other guy a coward.
huh?
i think it’s beginning to dawn on kesler that he’s a pussy.
All right, come on, dummy, you won the game. Come on. Pick up your trophy.
The puppy cam is back!?
Damn you! I’m already short on free time as it is.

Doesn't that scare you?

Few things are better than the puppy cam and hockey
The owner of the puppies is a Sharks fan, too, he’d probably be ok with little hockey jerseys.

I don't watch Conan
But one site I have to avoid is kittenwars.com.
I end up with a new kitty every time I go there, it seems.

This is amazing!
I’m probably going to sound a little bit like Kesler here, but it really makes me happy that there is a person who would put up a live webcam of puppies and also that there are people who watch it. Even if all parties involved are women, it still redeems my faith in humanity after the whole internet was taken over by porn and flame wars.
All right, come on, dummy, you won the game. Come on. Pick up your trophy.
ya pussy
