Both coaches standing on the benches and Pierre McGuire in the middle. I can't stop laughing at that pic.
Still come back to the good ole days once in awhile
Yup so do i its nothing but a big pussy lg now they cry they get hit a stick to the face etc etc
Yep. NHL took $1B from Disney and all of this disappeared.
50 seconds that's me in the blue jersey behind the coaches. Best game of my life.
Your the old man with the kid? Be more specific lol
Shes sitting behind the lady in the penguins jersey with the A on it @justi139
As a Blues fan, love seeing Schenn pull some great antics. I never realized Vatali was the Penguin who laid the massive hit to start that round of festivities. Vitali is on the radio covering Blues games now & also does the intermission recaps on the Jumbotron in the arena. His personality is pretty much perfect ro be the color commentary guy.
Canucks fan here, no fight has no consequence to me but the fact that Simmonds, stands up to Engelland after taking a puck to the eye not too long ago, shows what he will do for his team.. kudos to him
And he took an ass woopin for it
We need more guys like Asham and Rinaldo back in the league
100%
I’ve always said that Zachary Rinaldo, Wayne Simmonds and Ray Emery were the last true broad st bullies. Been a flyers fan my whole life I miss these days
@@josethehipocritecarcillo, Jody Shelley, Darroll powe, Ian laperrier
Low skilled guys are a liability
you play to the final horn, enough said, these 4th liners are your energy guys which bring hype n they probably play like 5 minutes a game, they're trying their hardest no matter what. If i had a guy lined up perfectly im not really looking at the time
This series in my heart
Goddamn this Flyers run was so fun to watch. So much fighting, so much Penguins losing against us.
and now we own you guys, crazy how times change. 1975!
@@SpergyPretty sure we are up 2-1 against you guys this season and still up in the standings but who on Earth would count that?!
Engo handed your player an ass woopin here though
@@10DollarProductions Hang the banner! Up 2-1 in a series vs the pens. Maybe it will translate to a cup🤣🤣😭🤡
@@SpergyAnd maybe the Penguins will make the playoffs this year! Boy that would be exciting!
Always fun when the Flyers and Pens get together.
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE FLYERS WIN THE CUP?
No but I’ve seen the Penguins go thru 2 bankruptcies
People need to stop arguing whether it was a clean hit. It was. Now take the context of the hit, and can anyone honestly say it wasn't instigating? I'm sure Vitale had no idea that blindsiding Briere with a minute left in the game and his own team down by 3 goals wasn't going to draw ANY reaction from the Flyers...Give me a break...
Emotions were running high on both sides so all it took was one wrong hit to set everyone off. I just don't get the game misconducts with 1 minute left. I don't remember anyone being suspended from the next game.
Damn. They were insanely protective of Crosby lol
Star players get protected like that
Clean hit. Should be a good series
Wild to think this was not that long ago, the league has changed a lot. Don't get me wrong a lot of it is for the better. Much more speed and skill. However that isn't all hockey was about. There was much more grit, tenacity and physicality back in the day. And I don't mean the 80's or 90's even. Look back a decade and we had routine line brawls and casual fights off faceoffs. If you compare the stats of fighting majors from 2010 to 2021 you will see whopping 60% reduction. And the figures on body checking and hitting aren't any better. Once again the 2021 season had over 50% less recorded hits and body checks. There is less than 15 players in the league without visors, fighting and enforcement has almost been completely and tottally phased out of hockey. And it's all because of the Department Of Player Safety and their obsession with concussions and CTE and head injures. But what's funny is once again the medical information displays clearly that more often than not it's body checks or large hits that result in head injury. Not fights. With the DOPS going as it is, I imagine by 2030 the AHL and NHL could be a stick-checking only league.
@yakipopavich they definitely are trying to minimize fighting with the instigator pen and stuff but the enforcer has been phased out because it isnt worth having a goon what cant play hockey on the bench because as you said the game is faster and more skilled
I'm not an NHL fan but I'd like to say two things:
- From what I've heard, these two likely will face each other in the first round of the playoffs. I have a feeling whoever wins that series isn't going to let the other team forget it.
- I love how Pierre is just standing there in the middle of the coaches' fight. Kudos to him for staying poised. If that was me I likely would have taken cover!
THANK YOU Bylsma puts his CHECKING line out there in a game that is out of reach. If he truly cared about the score ,which is the only thing that matters in a game, he would have put the leagues top scorer and eventual Ross winner out there but no to not change the score of the game but other reasons Bylsma puts out his CHECKING line.
11 years later
You knew with Aaron Asham and Engelland on the line something was coming down the pike!!
Yes it was a clean hit, that is not why the Flyer's are upset. Its the fact the Pens put out their goon line when the game is all but over. Why would the coach decide to do that?
I find it hilarious how both the Pittsburgh arena and the Flyers arena in the brawl with the Senators in 2004 played Machinehead by Bush during the closing brawls of each game. That’s just a really funny coincidence.
Engalland vs simmonds is an insane fight two of the best to do it
I'm not a fan of either team but this will be a great playoff series.
I find it comical that you try to personally attack me based upon the team from the town i was born in. Shows the intelligence levels and class you guys have.
Finally someone gets it
Nobody’s going to talk about the spear by the flyer centerman after the face off?
Correct
The good old days of hockey
I love the comment about him saying I love watching flyers beat the burgh….look at our records Stanley cups…super bowls….need I say more
gonna be a good playoff series !
You know it's bad when the Chief is holding back his Head Coach
Good times!
If it was 20 years before the benches would of cleared .
I hate the pens so much but I agree it was a total clean hit, shoulder to shoulder. It was just unnecessary in the fact that the game was over, this was done to most likely cause trouble, but the Flyers won last night and it looks like it'll be a good series so this doesn't matter much anymore lol.
Your flyers is finished because Carter hart is criminals junior Canada 2018 oh oh bye bye flyers 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤮 and flyers lose 5 games 🙏 yes
best rivalry in hockey?
Does anyone have the video of Crosby slashing Giroux?
year?
This is why true fans love the game,And for some moron saying that Pierre should be fired for doing the best job that any analyst could possibly do,should grab his knitting needles and change it back to figure skating.
I agree it was a clean hit in all aspects. But where I disagree is the spear part. I mean it looks like Adams gets his stick up a little and then Briere gives him a little jab. Not actually a spear because like I played center when I played roller hockey when I was younger and that kinda stuff just happens. Like I remember one game where I won the faceoff the same way and someone jabbed me with the blade of the stick but that doesn't hurt normally bc of the shoulder pads lol nice analysis though
Crosby gets a 9 for that dive.
Yea i read in all the comments that Crosby had 3 slashes and malkin pulled something cheap and that's why i came to these videos expecting to see those.
the vitale hit was clean ??? don't know why laviolette is so pissed of
Bc the pens are bitches and cheap shots that’s y
As a pens fan. I LOVE THIS RIVALRY IT'S KINDA LIKE. THE STEELERS AND RAVENS OF THE NHL.
I’m not a fan of either team but this was just one of those things - I can see Pittsburgh resting their stars because the game was lost - but when a 4th liner is out there and throwing hits like that with a minute left against one of their top 6, I can see why Laviolette was heated - clean hit, but a valid reason for Lavy to be heated, I mean we’re talking Asham, Vitale, and Engllund -
BEST HIT EVER!!! 7:44
Oh yeah, you must love cheap shots, there was nothing even going on, wt that moment where they were,that was pathetic
best part of this vid is time 1:35 and 2:12 with the old man behind the coach making funny gestures!
Andres Rodriguez old man ?, are you blind ? lol
Us people from the burgh don’t like Philly….biggest rivalry in any sport
Great hit. Briere started it with the spear.
There’s nothing better than seeing Simmonds get punched in the face!
Wooooooooo PITTSBURGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like the dick that I am I switched over to the NASCAR race halfway thru the 3rd and missed all this. Thank you so much for posting. OBTW........7:55.......one of the douchiest things I've ever seen
Clean hit....
At NOOOO point did I say hockey didn't require skill. You said soccer is unskillful, I compared the two from the stand point of competing. EVERY EVERY EVERY single sport is about competing hockey takes no exceptions in regards to how often you give 100%. You are the one that brought in viewer base how soccer takes no skill. That was the tipping point I kept all my stuff relating to hockey. Who said anything about viewing, ANYTHING?
sweet
They were just arguing on who can zip Pierre’s mouth closed first
5 Cup's Nuff Said
I find it more comical yet that you assume without any proof that i meant all Flyers fans. In fact, when i said "you guys" i was referring to the two previous posters in this chain of comments. Now I shall extend it to include you as well, thus making it refer to 3 people.
Watching Berube as peacemaker cracks me up....
Things were a "little out of control"? That's like saying megathrust earthquakes like the December 26th, 2004 Sumatra and the March 11th, 2011 Sendai events caused a "little wave action".
Scott Hartnell is very very good at getting under the skin of others. When you think bully you don't think getting under skin, you think someone who is physically superior to yourself and wouldn't want to get in a fight with them. That is the broad street bullies, the Flyer's are nothing like that, they are a skilled team that uses their energy to fore check and speed to gain advantages. The Flyer's never win games by intimidation, its by their energy and skill.
that was a clean hit and the flyers started the fight...? i dont see what the penguins did lol
because the game was over at that point and Danny was one of the flyers top goal scorers. The only reason you send out the fourth line 4th line against the top line if to do that. Thats why the flyers got to heated.
Thats why the won the series right?
And this has to do with Cooke changing his game how?
what? can't hear what you said
I am getting an unhealthy dislike for Pittsburgh teams and their fans.
5.34 kasparaitis?
fuck yeah
Haha, bro that was a clean hit. Your just mad because Flyers can't hit on the ice...
Ok yes the hit was fine, I understand. If you watch the hit again you see Briere even had a little difficulty there so a swipe of the puck would have been simple thing to do not a hit. I know Briere didn't mind the hit all at, he knows it was clean he knows that's hockey, what every one knows that's not the right time for it. You can play extremely hard without hitting people. Look at Giroux, plays 1st team PK and man up never lays huge hits, He is just super energetic and goes hard.
That was a clean hit you right but it was unnecessary depends on what
relaxed play, you are just stuck in the world that with 1:25 left on the clock that you can make a difference. One shift 1st line 35 seconds 2nd shift 2nd line 40 seconds split up the time nice and short. Since it wasn't going to be 100% from the Flyer's you can expect not to go hard as a Pen. They are grown men who have been playing this game for their entire lives 30, 40 seconds will end their lives.
Did I just see the Flyers Coach take a hockey stick and break it?
Like I said, I was screaming at the ref but he told me it didn't count as a spear. It was also about 3-4 years ago when it happened so I really wasn't as active in trying to know the rules of a sport I was playing for fun, just an angry little kid who was annoyed at the continuation of it.
ok one guy did one thing and its now a team of canabules? Like you said all teams are dirty and totally agree with that, heck I was even dirty at times. (I also played lacrosse and would hold other peoples sticks very discreetly from time to time). With that being said it doesn't mean the Flyers are dirtier than most. Again back to the reputation they inherited, I watch every game and I know i cant see everything but they do no more than any other team.
haha the guy that hit him and the guy that got hit were peacfully holding each other back!!!!!!!! the only true players on the ice!!!!!
2:11 hollywood hogan in the back
FN Anderson He Wishes
WATCH OUT! Pittsburgh's out 4-2
Mario should just close shop already and join Jagr in orange.
Clean Hit! Don't put ur head down rule #1 when ur 5yrs old. Look @Lindros!
The Lindros hit was dirty
A minute and some change for a couple players to skate around is nothing. The Flyers put out a second line, and a hit is not called for when the game when you said "your done at this point". That's the reason the Flyers are so upset, like i sad clean hit but uncalled for.
whats funny is that the first two that bumbed into each other just grab each other and dont fight.
Its okay, the flyers are still winning the series lolololololol. No to mention that the penguins are gonna get destroyed on home ice XD
Ben Linnabay how did they do this year ?, what was the score in the regular season games as well ?
I actually said the hit was clean, in my original comment I said it was. The point I am trying to make is there is a time and place for everything. No need for the hit, he could have just checked the puck and gotten a scoring chance, not a hit. Did you not just see what i said about all the stuff about what the Pens did? are you just going to disregard all that to justify what the pens doing as right? Ask 95% of fans of any team, they will say clean hit wrong timing.
1:32 is that hulk hogan heckling
Its SNIPZEY He Wishes He Was Hulk Hogan’s Younger Brother
Let’s go pens
Yes I'm quite aware that's how you are supposed to play EVERY single sport in the world, to the end, but anyone that has played a sport knows that you know when the game is practically over and everything you do is irrelevant in the final score that you don't go as hard as if you knew you had some say in the outcome.
The third game was a joke. The Flyers will continue to outplay and outskill the Pens' dirty tactics.
that he gave Schenn a nice little shove of his own 10 seconds before that. But, and i know this for a fact because i played soccer and am well familiar with diving, Crosby embellishes everything and since he's hockey's "savior" he can get away with it. All the time, as you said it's hockey, the are little cross checks every game that people dont flop on. And the Flyer's dirty, what about malkin rubbing Giroux's head into the ice and Crosby's slashes that never get called, Those are not dirty?
no matter what people say about crosby and the pens.... They won that battle but lost the war
Hmmmm.....seems to me both teams are to blame here! Hit may have been clean but we all know what the intent was!! don't we Pens fans?!!!
Any player who is actually concerned about scoring would have tried to poke check him. Its much smarter to get the puck and have a quick turn in possession then taking the player and the puck at the same time nullifying you for a second or two allowing the defense to react to the turnover.
Typical bender mindset
The hit was a clean one all the flyers ever try to do is start a fight, they're a disgrace to the game, perhaps they should spend less time in a boxing ring and more time on the ice practicing hockey!
And yet they won the series
Easily
@@lertmelernyers8672 yet still no cup....Pens have gotten two since this happened....🤨🙄
yes. if anything its a hook
@Raset He did not target Briere it was a perfectly clean hit and the head was not targeted so if you played hockey you would actually know something about it.
Sucks to know that bryzgalovs gonna let em rip in if you go against a team that played bad your probably gonna get swept if you go against WAS, BOS, OTT, or NY
It was hardly a goon line. It was a 4th checking squad, but hardly goon. We don't have any clear cut enforcer (except Steve Macintyre who has played all of 11 games this year). We decided to rest our top players (Geno and Sid) and top checkers (like Staal, Cooke and Kennedy) who get the bulk of the minutes in a game. We were done at this point of the game and the playoffs are about a week away.
What is this "sport" ?
Crosby crying about what schenn did 10 mins later. Funny cause i didnt hear anything about any flyers whining about brier being targeted, they do what hockey players do, fight about it and let it go not whine on the bench.
My favorite player has always been james neil / i feel the flyers never got him as well as they could or should have/ i think he was actually dirty than Marchand
will not* end their lives
FUCK YEAH! I KNOW THIS IS NOT HOCKEY BUT I LIKE! =)
Went to a fight and a hockey game broke out!
👏 👏 😑
