A struggling TB on the road was trying to play tough. Craig got plastered on the boards by Gaustad and then foolishly started a fight and got hammered. He should have let his head clear first and gotten a second wind.

Rick Jeanneret and Jack Edwards are hands down the NHL's two biggest homer announcers, but Jeanneret is by far more fun to listen to.

Gaustad a W for the fight, but more importantly, a penalty called on that hit?
Posted by preds321 on Dec 10, 2008 at 10:19 PM agree disagree
ah christ, you can't see a thing
Posted by blazers76 on Dec 11, 2008 at 12:02 AM agree disagree
How come no one is complaining that Gaustad punched Craig several times when he was down. I thought that was cheap?
Posted by tim daddy on Dec 12, 2008 at 1:33 PM agree disagree
why was there a penalty on that check? win gaustad
Posted by boxerlavean5 on Dec 11, 2008 at 12:16 AM agree disagree
first off the only reason he fought craig instead cuz he starts jabbin at Gaustad..second, he had the right to punch him when he was down cuz hes a tool and came at Gaustad when he wasn't looking and kept trying to get up at the end. Gaustad gave him a huge uppercut and knocked him on his @$$ at the end. owned

how was the check that started this off dirty???????? that was a clean hit stop whining about it.

easy win for gaustad. i love how people suggest the scrum after the hit was to protect gaustad from artyukhin. artyukhin had 2 more periods to challenge gaustad or fight him

How can you say he ducked Artukin... If nething watch the Video artukin backs off and lets the ref come between them as goose is moving towards him. Watch the 13 second mark he clearly is backing up... but ur right Gaustad must have ducked him!

All Goose. Craig laid an egg in this one
Posted by glovedropper08 on Dec 11, 2008 at 5:08 PM agree disagree
are you kidding me Tnaveler? Gaustad was trying to get after Artyukhin the whole time untill Craig came it. watch it again

I'm so tired of being babies about a good, and clean, hit.
Posted by beager on Dec 11, 2008 at 10:35 AM agree disagree
The best part of the fight was gaustad dodging and flailing to get craig where he wanted him, and then POW right to the face... easy win gaustad. and gaustad didn't get a chance to go after artyukhin this go round... the rest of the line converged on the scrum and craig came out squared off with goose.

GOOOOSE!!!!!!! Dont mess with the Goose!!!!

Craig absolutely got rocked he will think twice before trying to fight someone, because his face is will probably remember the beating it took from Gaustad.
