BTWilson makes the accurate pillow fight analogy,

as DZA perfectly sums up the ironic... ''watch out for the...!!! '' finale.


Loving the 3 Stooges, slapstick-comedy aspect of these last two fights.

Wonder what's next?

Maybe Janssen will hit Koci in the face with a pie, or some seltzer, even.

Gleason put Kulemin out of the game. What annoys me is that the two refs and two linesmen are supposed to separate the teams at the end of the period to keep fights from breaking out. They didn't do their job.

I think you can blame Clark MacArthur for that one, it looks like Gleason and Carolina were looking for some revenge after 5 foot nothing Larose got attacked. Wasn't impressed with Gleason however, Kulemin didn't even have his gloves off and didn't know what him. both teams have tough guys and it resorts to that stupidity.

Kulemin got what he deserved -- don't go poking a bear unless . . .

In hockey, there's a fine line on giving the non-verbal message if you want to go or not. It could be as simple as eye contact, the amount of force or pressure you apply and how you react when contact is made.
In this case, Kulemin unfortunately crossed the line with the left jab,
giving the green light to Gleason.
A painful learning experience for the Nikolai.

Maybe Kullemin is not well liked by his team since they let him skate all the way across the ice with a rag full of chloroform shoved in his face to finish breaking his nose on the wall by the doorway leading off the ice.

Also, Phaneuf skates over to Gleason and you can read Gleasons lips, "he called us names".

Gleason still wins because Kulemin didn't get his face shield off in time to get waked.

Niki said Hey.....That was not ...Kool-eh-man !!!!!!!! :)

sedinfan I like some of your posts but I'm gonna ask you one question !!!
Have you ever played any contact Physical sport in YOUR LIFE???? Or been in any Physical combative conflicts ie: BRAWLS
Cause I don't think you understand being in the HEAT of Battle and what goes through a mans mind in these situations!!!!!!
Revenge for what happened earlier in the game or day ain't it!!!!
Once everyone is squareing up and pairing up..................Its go time and not premeditated revenge/payback time!!!! Just sayin!!!!!!!

As you say....."they have tuff guys".................and tha's their job!!!!!!

i don't consider it a 'fight' if one guy is wearing both gloves. i'm not saying gleason is a turd burglar for doing what he did, i mean hell he's getting a face full of hockey mitts, of course he's gonna swing. he's a tough honest dude, no avery. kulemin is a moroon thinking gleason is going to join him in a panty pillow fight and not throw some knuckles. and i agree that gleason shouldn't have gotten a misconduct. what is he supposed to do?

that still shot of the video is very telling...

"Owwww my Noowwwwwse!".....poor marsha...take your medicine sissyboy....win Jackie Gleason

Cant give Gleason the W because Kulemin wasnt assessed a fighting major. Kulemin got in over his head and paid for it, plain and simple.

Dont start what you cant finish.

Punching someone with gloves on is actually more dangeroous than a bare fist. Thats how serious eye injuries take place. Komeserik must have taught Kulemin that. Kommy is famous for the face gouge. Good for Gleason, can't have pukes like Gaborik and Kulemin thinking that they are tough, when they obviously aren't. Honest Tim gets the win!!

Win - boards
Posted by orr4president on Jan 25, 2011 at 4:38 AM agree disagree
1) If you punch somebody with your glove on, its still a punch
2) Kulemin got what he deserved
3) Gleason is no punk

Kulemin was clueless here.
