Scott Walker is about 5'9" 190 lbs.
Lucic is 6'3" about 225

Seems about right Lucic would go after him. He usually runs from the big boys that can actually fight.

Walker's a punk. Gave it a 1 for cheapness.

Ward goes a little too far in shoving Cullen, and then stands there grinning at Walker with his ''glove-glue'' firmly attached.
What'd you expect?
The retalliation was, admittedly, disproportionate. and cheap...
but Ward had to know it was coming.
Game 7 Lucic-Walker would be interesting, but Chara-Walker would probably require the Canes facial-reconstruction surgeon.

I too normally like Walker but that was ugly, dumb, cheap, pointless, thoughtless, stupid, disprectful. I wouldn't go so far to say win for Ward, I'm calling it a draw and a 1 out of principal. That was ridiculous and I hope Walker doesn't play another playoff game for that one. And no I'm not a Bruins fan.

Ward has a long history of elbows and cheap shots dating back to his early days. He did it again to an opponent (Matt Cullen) , and a teammate (Walker) jumped in and was ready to throw down. I'm thinking Ward was going to pull his usual "What me worry?" routine. Now it was cheap, as Walker dry gultched him for sure, and he deserved the fine. I'll say the 'Canes fired up the Bruins for the loss today.

I said draw and a 1 because it was a mugging not a fight.

Good sucker punch ... high on the scale of cheap shots .... RoboSmash needs to get higher than a 520 on his SAT's..

Walker should get a suspension, third man in, cheap shot in the closing minutes. Cullen should fight his own fights, and Ward should be a warded a penalty shot. No, not like a shot on goal, break away status, I mean a free shot at Walker. Cheap shot for cheap shot. Sounds fair to me.....

How is this rated? You can't have a winner if there is no fight. Well, maybe you can, but I don't see it here. Walker with a cheap shot, and if I'm not mistaken this is not the first time he's done something like this.

I hope Ward recovers soon and I hope Walker gets the fight he wants in the next contest.

Cheap shot by Walker. VERY cheap shot. That was just plain pathetic.

That wasn't a fight. That was a sucker-punch. That's being a chicken****.
Posted by Defence4Life on May 11, 2009 at 3:39 PM agree disagree
Why does everyone call it a cheapshot? Ward was looking into Walker's eyes as he drops the gloves and grabs his jeresey... what did he think was coming next? Ward just stood there and continued yelling, made no effort to defend himself. Why should we pitty him for talking the talk, but failing to walk the walk?

Hey man, nice shot!

Funny how some people will vote for "Walker all the way." I suppose the village idiots failed to realize that this was not a fight, hell Ward didn't even have his gloves off.
Posted by wingers on May 12, 2009 at 3:51 PM agree disagree
Ward has 0 fights this year. I don't think he would have dropped the gloves with anyone on Carolina since he still respects the franchise (having won a cup ya know) and ...oh ya he doesn't fight anyone. as others said, this is not a fight. walker should have noticed that ward didn't want to fight and probably shouldv'e noticed that ward wasn't defending himself. whatever, we'll see if anything comes of it. for the Hurricanes players to call this "just hockey" is a lame excuse, hockey is played with a stick in ur hands in case you forgot.

I called DRAW because it was a CHEAP and BULLSH*T move on Walkers part.

Ward didn't even have his gloves off. Carolina got owned, hard...they all couldn't take it, and decided to slash and cheap shot their way...all the way to a loss at the end of the night.


And what lame fagggots like RoboSmash don't understand, is Gleason didn;t "ragdoll" Lucic....just as Rutuu did (the Pens player, last season), he went after Lucic VERY SHORTLY AFTER HE WAS RECOVERING FROM A BROKEN FUUCCCKKINGGG NOSE!!! Are you that stupid??? Would ANY OF YOU fight someone if you had JUST RECENTLY broken your GOD DAMN NOSE?!?!?!? Some people are so frigggin stupid on this board its sad.
