Dominic Moore was a pansy all series, so this:

Bruins Horton hits NHL TBLightning Moore Lucic hits Hedman should be Fined - YouTube

Barch wrecks Paille, so this:

Krys Barch vs Shawn Thornton Dec 8, 2011 - YouTube

Backes hits the vet Recchi:

Andrew Ference fights David Backes w/SlowMo 11/6/10 1080p HD - YouTube

I can go on and on
To be fair, you said that the Bruins didn't "take anyone's ****". Cookie showed that they did in fact take **** from teams without reprisal, or weeks later in the Cooke case. I realize that was a few years ago. A more accurate statement would have been that over the past few seasons they haven't taken any ****. They changed their style, and teams have followed suit. I thank them for that. The Cooke incident did for the Bruins what I hope the miller incident will do for the Sabres ... Make them re- evaluate their personnel and style. I think you are off base saying the Bruins, Flyers and Rangers are "the only tough teams". I guess we will find out starting this Sunday ...
