looked like he jumped in the air and did a 180- how is that not a charging?

i dont give a **** about either team so dont pull that with me.

As a Predators fan, I like to see Arnott coming to the aid of his Dumont. Burrows should have gotten a charging, but that was a lack of discipline on Arnott's part. And I just can't give a win to someone in a situation like this. One guy didn't even take off his gloves. This should be, and ALWAYS should be, a draw.

Alright: another mini-brawl! What a cheap shot by Arnott! Yet I'd still call it a draw.

Flying Elbow.

not really a fight, but justice was served
Posted by blackgoldfan on Dec 10, 2008 at 8:00 PM agree disagree
did he leave his feet....duh yeah i think so. this is a dirty hit. i don't mind when players respond with a fight after a dirty hit. infact i like it. good on arnot even though he gave burrows no chance. but he didn't really deserve one. needless to say if you throw a dirty hit (or any hit at all this season) you better be ready to drop em.

Alexandre the Not-Quite-So-Great cleverly figured out that the refs weren't calling anything, and took advantage.

Jason Freaking Arnott of all people pounded him once he realized the refs weren't going to throw the little blighter out. Then he wanted to take O'Brien out as well, for getting in the way.

Looks suspiciously like a case of trying to injure the opposing team's leading scorer to me...I would not be surprised by a suspension, and it's quite outrageous that nothing was called on Burrows, and VAN ended up with a 7 minute PP.

I cant believe they let burrows play
Posted by tattooedkingpin on Dec 10, 2008 at 9:35 AM agree disagree
I guess the tilt goes to aarnott, but how can you call it a fight when only 1 player drops the gloves?
Posted by Tomales on Dec 12, 2008 at 1:54 AM agree disagree
What was that?
Posted by HillbillyHockey on Dec 9, 2008 at 11:52 PM agree disagree
Arnott had to step up since the refs are freakin blind. A guy cheap shots Dumont by leaving his feet with his elbow up. Burrows turtles like a wuss. Burrows will get what's coming to him when they play again.

How did the girl burrows not get called for a charge?
Posted by burns08 on Dec 10, 2008 at 1:40 AM agree disagree
Burrows again shows that he's the biggest pansy in the NHL. He likes to start crap but cowers when he has to fight. Burrows is a joke. Arnott wins, and I only wish he would've had more time to pummel Burrows.

stephenandrobyn...you think leaving your feet and bringing elbows to the face is a clean hit? Are you kidding me? And no offense, but if fighting in hockey wasn't made for situations like this than what's the point of it. The fact that you think Arnott is an idiot for doing what he did shows that you either have blue balls for Burrows or you simply haven't a clue about hockey.

Burrows can't leave his feet like that and not expect to have to defend himself. Arnott did a good job of sticking up for his teammate.
