I vote for “giantest.”

What a total asshat. Some one should sterilize him so that there can be no more.

Doubt it. That Zona article was both stupid and uncalled for; full of hyperbole.

seriously zan?

here is how a fight works
1. you both drop your gloves
2. you both square off
3. you fight

it’s not
1. you throw off your gloves and lunge while they’re half-facing you
2. he tries to get his gloves off in time to fight
3. before he’s completely ready and has time to square off you clock him the kisser

by Beantown Canuck on Nov 15, 2010 1:40 AM PST up reply actions  

If Smid wants to stick his nose in there then he had better get ready to start throwing them. Smid instead hesitated and cowered for a second before dropping his gloves. Pow, gets one right in the kisser. So, while I can kind of agree with your first 3 points as far as etiquette goes, if Smid doesn’t want any, then he should stay the fuck out of the way.
“You both square off”. That is not always the case. Many tilts start way quicker than that. Look at Stortini throwing them at Prust right after Avery gets tossed.

Yeah Smid’s gloves are off so he was ready to fight. It’s his own fault.

by marcness52 on Nov 16, 2010 11:55 PM PST up reply actions  

The hell?

Was he trying to throw punches from off ice? I imagine there’s going to be some supplementary discipline here.

Also, I don’t think you can call the Avery-Smid thing a “cheap-shot”. I’m pretty sure they were both jawing at each other there, and Smid was looking at him the whole time. He had to know it was coming.

completely disagree

there’s a way you go about doing this
there’s a way that fights work
that is NOT it

I’ve never seen a player do that before in the NHL. Rapid-fire toss of your gloves and pop the guy just as he’s reacting to seeing you drop your gloves?

Similar. Clune wasn’t ready and Ryp got the gloves off quick and punches in.

I was going to try and post

a response to your video and your comparison to Rypien. Then I saw Demitra in the video and i puked on my keyboard.

I think the two were different

Clune was trying to get Rypien to go and so he was ready to fight. He was just slow getting his gloves off. Avery turned down an invitation to fight and then as soon as Smid took his eye off Avery the gloves were coming off and a punch was being thrown. It’s two different situations for me.

and

1. clune was directly facing ryp
2. ryp was the one who started with his back to clune
3. clune was POKING RYP with his stick, not just talking smack

i say HUGE difference between the two

by Beantown Canuck on Nov 15, 2010 9:11 AM PST up reply actions  

Smid did give Avery a stick slap as well. And it doesn’t look like he ever did take his eye off him.
Avery did do it pretty quickly, but it wasn’t like Smid wasn’t looking. Maybe you can call it being a bit dirty, but I don’t think it qualifies as being labeled cheap-shot.

Well

That’s a matter of semantics. I would simply call it a dirty, pussy, spineless, douchebag move. Zona is the one calling it a cheapshot, and he doesn’t have much credibility on much. In fact I think I from now on will forever refer to him as Sean Avery Zona in reference to my comment over there.

by Beantown Canuck on Nov 15, 2010 9:35 AM PST up reply actions  

In fact

I will refer to both the player and the blogger with that name, as if they were one and the same.

clune was directly facing ryp

And Smid wasn’t because he chicken-shitted out of it.

He didn't want to fight

then waited til Smid wasn’t ready and then attacked him before he had a chance to defend himself. You don’t see that as a problem?

If I’m jawing at Avery to his face and tapping at his ankles I should be expecting the worst. Smid put himself in the position of getting into a fight

Watch some of the interviews

with Oilers players. Smid asked him to go and he said no we will go later. Then as soon as Smid started to back away he attacked him. That’s fucking gutless.

And I am not even going to respond to the argument that it’s Smid’s fault he got jumped because he wasn’t ready for it. He should have expected the worst? OK. How does that change the fact that Avery was cheap and gutless?

So if Smid says “we’ll go later on” then he should have skated away. But he didn’t. Shouldn’t there be a little onus on Smid’s part not to be stupid like that? I mean, like I said, that is Avery he’s dealing with. However, after watching it over again now he is kinda skating away..Avery looks back, at what I don’t know then goes after him. Yeah, ok, it’s douchey… I can see that. But if Smid isn’t going to answer the bell for his buddy then maybe he should stay the hell outta there and let somebody else deal with it.

Well that's the whole point

he did answer the bell. And Avery was too much of a pussy to fight him. Then jumped him after he had already said he wasn’t going to fight. It’s typical but that doesn’t make it any less stupid.

After Smid said he wasn’t going to fight? That’s what you mean right? Then he should let somebody else deal with Avery. Stortini was out there

No no

AVERY said no to the fight. Smid challenged Avery who said No. Then Avery, after saying no, jumped Smid who was no longer ready for a fight.

I didn’t see/hear those comments. If that’s true then it is pretty cheap to say “no wait” then jump him.

Except Smid dropped his gloves. He was ready to fight he just wasn’t quick enough.

on when the punch was being thrown.

I was just trying to say I didn’t think it qualified as a cheap shot

Peckham’s move was douchier. The guy’s already off the ice and you’re going after him. This is the NHL not a WWE hardcore match.

by marcness52 on Nov 17, 2010 12:01 AM PST reply actions  

He started going after

him when he was still on the ice I think he was just slow getting there. Avery was laughing at the Oilers bench and Peckham tried to get to him. The way I saw it Avery was the one practically running away until he was sure the linesman was in the way and his team mates were grabbing Peckham.
