Newbury responds to a Sarich cheap shot on Richards,
and manages to overcome a height, weight,
and 'body-visor' disadvantage...
on his way to earning a lacklustre draw.

Newbury was called up from AHL Connecticut for this role, protecting the high paid forwards like Richards and Gaborik.

draw -- seemed like an elbow to the head by Sarich.

Posted by mudman55 on Oct 21, 2011 at 8:00 AM agree

Was it a ht from behind?Yes. Was Richards facing the boards? No. C'mon, let's not over-analyze every hit. No injury risk here, let it go. And Richards is tough enough to take a hit like that.

Newbury doing his JOB

Posted by b.t.wilson on Oct 21, 2011 at 12:00 AM agree

Newbury did what he had to do. Feisty scrap but didn't really see anything good land. Going draw and 4.

Posted by chad420 on Oct 21, 2011 at 1:13 PM agree

even though Sarich won... Newbury Comics did his job on his call-up

draw

if your going to challenge someone in a pathetic way you might want to actually be able to fight.. Newbury didnt do much and it looked like the Veteran Sarich didnt want to hurt the child.

If I could give that puke Sarich a minus for this fight I would. the Flamers have had 2 fights this year and their both hug/man love fests. sounds about right for the Flamers.

And Sarich wonders why nobody likes him. Good for Newberry to take exception to the cheapshot hit in the back that only pieces of **** like Sarich do. Never liked the punk....

Posted by 5minmajor22 on Oct 24, 2011 at 1:23 PM agree

good job by Newbury protecting the franchise. looks like he'll stay around for a while

Posted by ocrage on Oct 21, 2011 at 2:44 PM agree

At least Newbury's doing something Avery would NOT have done, which is drop the gloves.

Posted by durka on Oct 22, 2011 at 9:43 PM agree

wow that sucked. newbury had no chance gainst that monster visor

Posted by Double Nickels on Nov 6, 2011 at 6:58 AM agree

Newbury's hand has to hurt after drilling Sarich in the visor. Ouch. Draw or W Newbury for the aggressor; no way you can give it to Sarich.
