I admit it, if it weren’t for Madd Dogg, I wouldn’t give 2 number 2s about hockey. So, no, I don’t know too much about the game or the applicable decorum. I will say, I was living in Detroit, and not under a rock, during the whole Draper thing, and the aftermath.

With all that said, how was McCarty’s hit not a total cheap shot? Lemeuix was/is a prick, dealt out cheap shots himself, and thus had it coming. I understand he’s a brusier/enforcer and, as the announcer said “I guy you like to have on your side,” but, come on – that was cheap.

Also, P-Wah definately falls into the same caterogy as Lemeuix, but I think more highly of him for coming out, literally to help/protect Lemeuix after the cheap shot and ensuing pummeling.

It probably was cheap but I think because of what Lemieux did to Draper, he was expected to man up if somebody challenged him to a fight….

in fact, this was Lemieux’s MO…cheap shot somebody and when somebody challenged him, he turtled or turned his back

stop saying boi
