That was ****ing low of Rupp. He knew what he was doing, and the arena staff is god damn clueless for opening it so early.

Draw in the fight.

[Bloody Fists]

Aww, no more?

[The Bully]

Draw!

You had a problem with that? Come on, set your purse down a minute and enjoy that kind of stuff. That's what was awesome about last night's game with all the scrums and the fight, and Rupp pushing Smith through the doors was pretty good, too.

I really don't think it was Rupp's intention to knock Smith into an opening door. That's potentially a really dangerous play and much more the fault of whoever the guy on the other side of the door was than it is Rupp's.

Smith was understandably ticked off after it though, and he went hunting for someone. The fight with Talbot was spirited, but I don't think much really landed. Draw.

Good clean hit by Sutton

You're a ****ing idiot if you thought that was good. That **** is dangerous as hell and can end careers. I like Rupp, and I loved how rough and chippy that game was, but that was minor league ****. If Neil had done that to Crosby you'd be bitching like the Pens fans when Sutton wrecked that bitch Leopold.

The fight was about to heat up, Smith got his arm loose and Talbot was in a vulnerable position and the linesmen broke it up early.

It had nothing to do with Rupp and everything to do with the arena staff being morons. Yes it was good on Rupp, and I hope we see it every single game. He was also in the zamboni entrance, not the bench or penalty box which is where injuries happen.

Obviously it was more the arena staff's fault, but your clueless if you don't think Rupp knew what he was doing.

You hope you see that **** every game? And are you seriously aying that isn't dangerous? That's one of the most dangerous things ever, yes even the zamboni doors.

Easy killer. Rupp is not a mean spirited guy at all, that is actually his biggest criticism as a player. There is no way he intended to shove Smith through the doors like that. It was just a clueless maintenance guy.

I think Rupp paid the arena staffer to open the door just as he was shoving a guy along the boards.It happens all the time.End careers???Are serious?It seemed to be kind of like if someone pulled the chair out from under you when you tried to sit down.Minor league??How about Ruutu swan diving his face into the boards trying to get a call???Why does Leopold have to be a bitch???Last I saw he got up and skated off on his own power.Pretty ballsy to me.Who was bitching about the hit?I thought it was a good hit.A blow to the head,which the league is trying to eliminatebut a good hit nonetheless....

Draw, Not Rupp' fault that the arena staff we're tards. But i like the hit for no other reason than it'll hopefully spark more scrums and scraps.
