No he didn't stumble over the stick. He fell down because of bad balance.

Wrong... and even if that were the case - which it clearly isn't to anyone with functioning eyes- how do you rationalize his other fights where it's one swing and topple over?

Phony display by Zdeno Chara. Disgusting is another way of describing things. Chara could have been firing away from the second he broke his right free when he threw his first punch. It wasn't a death grip, but Neil had a hold of Z's right. Chara threw a bit of an uppercut and then was free to swing away with his huge reach. He's done it before. Instead however, he throws one more punch and then "falls." Neil didn't give a f*ck about trying to light up Dennis Seidenberg. If Chara is going to act like a tough guy and take matters into his own hands, he shouldn't give a f*ck about trying to light up Neil. Pathetic display.

Chris Neil is a p*ssy in all of this as I see it for not throwing at Z while he was down. What? Suddenly the "code" matters to Chris Neil? Neil is as throw back a cheapshot artist/tough guy as we've got left. Few guys today are willing to blatantly do something wrong to another player. Chris Neil traditionally kicks a man while he's down. As a Leaf fan, I've seen it from him many times. I like him for it. Disappointed that he chose not to here.

Seems these guys chose to act like friends rather than competitors here. Neither was willing to do what should have been done. I blame Chara. He was the one who went looking for it. If he wasn't going to take the fight serisouly, he should have left it to Lucic or Thornton. Win, lose, or draw, either of those 2 would have tried to "avenge" Seidenberg rather then just looking like they were.

Agreed. In fact, Lucic was about 10 feet away. It's hard to really tell anything from watching his back, but his body language kind of appears that he wanted in on it but deferred to Chara... or that's the way it looks to me at least. Certainly would have made for a better bout, and you can bet that either of those two wouldn't have held up had the other been down like Charo was!

[RetardedChimp]

Chara really should have let the league handle it this time, eh Sugden_Flu?

Are the B's fans as frustrated with Chara as others are? Here's the biggest guy in the league, whos shown he has much better balance than this in the past, just flat out bail 3 seconds into a god damn REVENGE fight. Someone compared Chara to Lindros? What a dumb comparison in this situation, if Lindros couldn't win in a fight than he would have no qualms with driving Neils head through the ice with his elbow after slew footing him. THAT would send the message effectively, Chara failed.

I'm pissed at Neil too, he should have threw that left when Chara was down. Usually I can always count on him to do good things like that, but he didn't come through this time. The only reason I can see is because they were ex-teamates. Still disappointing.

[Juha82]

I wouldnt call a guy retard if hes wrong on his opinions like one guy who did write that Chara fell down because he hitted to the stick.
He is wrong but its stupid retarded when peoples are calling him retarded now.

Wasn't that also one of Wendel's favorite moves? You douche leaf fans are all the same.

Try reading before trolling there "Clarky".
Where did I say Neil was clean?
ANd while your at it, scrape the inside of your water head and try to explain to the forum why Neil didn't pop Chara in this case?
Now back into your trunk Gimp until the next Neil fight.
Can't wait for your next post.


By the way, your namesake (and likely bunk-bed poster boy), Wendel threw quite a few questionable punches in his day. Hypocrite.

Clarky has a disorder.
It's called stupidity.

Wendel Clark was a very well respected player and fighter who didn't duck anybody, end of story. Chris Neil is a punk. A punk who knows Chara would break his jaw if he pulled any of his usual antics so he didn't. Neil is sadly predictable. Kind of like when Grats called him out recently, Neil wimpered like a little girl. For a trash talking punk like him he was awfully quiet on that one.

Comparing Chris Neil in the same sentence (even for a Senaturd) is sad.

[super820]

Why was Chara taking care of this anyways?
Dont they have a "tough guy" with Thorton? Isnt that his job

Clark was respected? Maybe by Duds fans.
Spoken by someone who never actually saw Wendel play.

YUP Chara really broke his jaw here.
Great enforcing again by the Bruins


Speaking of sad and predictable, maybe you should think before you post "Clarky"

Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow...

Is anyone else sick about hearing about "cheapshots" and "the code"?

Its a fight for god sakes. Watch when guys like Probert, McSorely, Kocur and Brown fought. They would punch guys on the ground, while the linesman where holding his opponent. Some guys (kocur vs kyte) would hit guys while the were ko'd on the ice.

The only reason Neil didnt hit Chara when he was down was one of two reasons.

#1...in todays NHL, he problay would have been fined or suspended.

#2...he realized if he did that he would have to face either a very pissed off Chara later in the game, or quite possibby Lucic, who was 10' away.

I'm sure Neil was happy to end that fight as it was and NOT have to answer for anything else later.

I still dont get all the Chara hate here. Look at his fight card. He has fought just about every hw there has been, since he came in the league.

Show me another Norris Trophy winner and 6 time all-star who has a card like him.

Yes, his balance is bad when he fights..(its physic's you tards, not his fighting abilty). Do you guys ever think that most of the guys who fight him, try to knock him off balance to avoid throwing with him. Look at whole fight card and not just the last few fights before you dis-miss him.

Or perhaps.....
#3. Chris and Zdeno are friends.

So you are saying balance has nothing to do with one's fighting ability?
And Chara is a superior fighter because he has a Norris and has appeared in 6 all star games?
M-Kay.



Yes, what a card. Mattias Timander is a monster.
Chara, Dismissed.

Something tells me that if Neil had smacked Charo at that point you'd be singing a different tune, noob.

Bullschitt.Give me an example of when a late punch during a fight has resulted in a meaingful fine or suspension in "todays NHL". You just want to avoid giving Neil any credit whatsoever. Personally, I think he should have whacked the big oaf, I mean... it was Charo who wanted it, right?

Yes, Chris Neil has demonstrated throughout his career that he is afraid to answer for his actions.

You might want to familiarize yourself with Charos card, son. "Just about every heavy"? Complete BS... and when he did fight legit guys like BGL and Brash... his "balance" quickly got the better of him and he was flopping on the ice within 3 seconds.... here is where you tell me that they didn't want to trade with Charo and took him down.

His card is okay on paper.... but when you look deeper they were largely crap, boring draws.

Yes, his balance is bad when he fights..(its physic's you tards, not his fighting abilty). Do you guys ever think that most of the guys who fight him, try to knock him off balance to avoid throwing with him. Look at whole fight card and not just the last few fights before you dis-miss him.

Explain to me the physics, and why it doesn't affect every tall fighting player the same way, Einstein! Explain to me why he doesn't fall down all the time after a hit. Apparently SOME guys have figured out a way to defy physics? I guess they should clue Charo in on how, huh?

I again suggest that YOU look at the actual FIGHT, not just the name on the paper!
