Fair enough. Personally I love a good body shot and wish enforcers would use them more but that's just me.

It was smart on Orr's part because of the reach advantage.

Sportsnet showed another angle going to intermission that looked like orr caught him. Anyone pvring that can go back and check?

Komarov and Ott had to be seperated.

On NBC, Keith Jones was saying how much he loved the early fights and Milbury went on a minute of a rant about how it gives hockey a bad name and they should be more spontaneous.

What a massive douche. **** off, Milbury!

2-0 now and the Sabres look like the better team. I could see them scoring a few more in which case the Leafs won't go down without a few fights.

[slashtrey]

Miller got tapped which now means an obligatory over reaction by the Sabres but I don't mind it! Decent scrum, no gloves dropped. This is a good game.

Kaleta gave him some shots in the back of the head. They gave him 2 for roughing

[I_am_Belak_2]

Kaleta went after Kessel after Kessel bumps Miller. Almost an old brouhaha, but Toronto had the wrong line out.

[grits207]

Kaleta just jumped Kessel. Hopefully Orr, Brown or Fraser return the favor.

[BROKEN*ORBITAL]

Kessel picked up a goaltender interference penalty for bumping Miller. Kaleta came in from behind and shoved Fat Phil to the ice and them jumped on his back and tried to hump him.

This was a non-event, but it was Kessel so hopefully someone on Toronto was paying attention.

[FistofFury]

I forgot how much I can't stand Milbury. Talking on TSN about how the fights at the beginning of the game have no place in hockey blah blah blah. This fool crawled into the crowd as a player and was fighting with a damn shoe. Keith Jones stood up for the fights but I was hoping he'd smack that troll looking imbecile in the ear with a shoe!

[slashtrey]

Kaleta declined Brown

[k.L]

That was pure bull****.

Huh? Other way around, Brown went after Kaleta because of what Kaleta did to Kessel.

[I_am_Belak_2]

Brown tries to do his job, sticking up for Kessel, and gets a misconduct. Comical.
