March 8th will be the 20 year anniversary of this incident. Can’t believe it’s already been that long.
-
I would also argue that what Marty McSorley did to Donald Breshear was just as bad, if not worse than this.
-
I watched that game live. That was back when you didn’t need some weird TV provider to watch the Avs and I watched every game. I’ll never forget the announcers started yelling and me and my buddy just looked at each other in disbelief. Crazy.
-
He had no intention of hurting him? ROFL. He had no intention of hurting him that BADLY.
-
I still think Marty McSorley's hatchet swing with the stick to Donald Brashear's neck while he was skating away from him was way worse.
-
Mark Crawford should have been held more accountable.
-
As an Av’s fan, it was also pretty boneheaded of Tony Granato not to just take Moore out of the game for the last 10 minutes and I still wonder why he didn’t. I watched this game on TV and Moore was getting roughed up all game and it kept getting worse and worse. Especially when the Canucks were down by 5. You knew something was going to happen. And obviously it did. Bertuzzi was relentlessly booed and jeered every single time he played in Denver after that.
-
The league was partly at fault for this incident. If Moore was properly suspended for that initial hit on Naslund, his career wouldn’t have ended so abruptly and Bertuzzi’s reputation wouldn’t have been tarnished. What some people fail to realize is that Moore already fought once earlier in that game. Should have been over after that. Both teams should have just moved on and focused on playing hockey.
-
This was not the most violent incident in hockey. What about McScorley's two-handed slash to Brashear head??
-
Matt Cooke handled the Situation ironically enough the best way, then it got really awful
-
Todd Bertuzzi: "I'm going to end someone's career today". Tom Wilson: "hold my beer ". NHL Player Safety: "everything looks good here".
-
Anyone who thinks this was the most "vicious" attack in NHL history didn't grow up watching the game.
-
Just a reminder that this what happens when 2 teams play each other 6-8 times in a single season. No specific point that I’m trying to make, just remembered the days when you could play a divisional opponent more times than a 7-game play off series throughout a season 😂
-
Ulf Samuelsson on Cam Neely was pretty dirty as I recall it
-
Calling BS on Bertuzzi's apology, he had every intention of hurting Moore... just not as seriously as it turned out.
-
Rocket Richard once broke 4 hockey sticks over another player. I would imagine that was pretty brutal.
-
The dogpile the persued after is where the majority of damage took place.
-
Satisfaction is a good teacher
-
Old time hockey boys
-
Crawford fanned the flames
