Brent Johnson Drops Rick DiPietro

You guys see this video? From what I heard, Dipietro called out Johnson, and then paid the price.

I saw it as was happening (game was on where I was eating) he knocked him clean. Dipietro was weqaring an ice bag on his face. Probably IR for the rest of the season.

I’m not so sure that wasn’t all elbow… watch the replay in slo-mo…

Well

I mentioned this video and my friend (an Islanders fan) said these two comments


youre all queers. look up his last fight where he gave montoya a fuckin seat

well since were talking about winning, at least it didnt take the islanders a century to win 4 cups. and our shit goalie still can kick the shit outta yours. you guys keep going one and out in the playoffs!

I can assure you our replies were smarter and less defensive.

Islanders Reporter
DiPietro has a hell of a bruise brewing on his right cheekbone…admitted he started scrum w/ hit on Cooke and that led to fight w/ Johnson

Of his fight with Johnson he remarked: “He has long arms.”

Another case of Penguins doing cheap shot hits then not backing it up. Talbot blindsided Comeau, so Comeau asked to fight Talbot, and Talbot declined.

Guarantee you Talbot was smiling the whole time. He smiles a lot, perhaps a cover for the fear? Because when he does drop the gloves he flails at people like 12 year old schoolgirl fight. Every time I see Talbot get psudo-tough I think of his “fight” with Avery.

Let me know how that works out for you . . .

by SimpleManiac on Feb 3, 2011 9:04 AM EST up reply actions  

LOL

You mean the cat fight with him trying to scratch Avery’s eyes out like a little kitten? I’d say this fight was the funniest I’ve seen in a while, second being Avery/Talbot, with the third being Semin playing the bongos.

on review not an elbow

sure looked like mostly (if not all) elbow to me

regardless, he got smoked. Of course the dumbass Pittsburgh announcers will staunchly insist it was a “clean left hook”

anyone hear the prust reference

“He hit him like Staal hit Prust last night”. This is by far the most retarded announcer comment iv ever heard….in no way was this punch dirty, Staal’s was dirty and unprovoked.

exactly what I thought, these guys have no idea of what they are talking about.

by CrazyRangerFan on Feb 2, 2011 11:35 PM EST up reply actions  

This is exactly what just pissed me off. Either they thought the Prust hit was clean or they are criminally uninformed on the teams they are announcing. Are these pens announcers? If so than we can assume the former and my hatred of the Pens just increased.

by Hunter Ivey on Feb 3, 2011 3:12 AM EST up reply actions  

Yeah seriously, how much of a homer do you have to be to commend Staal’s sucker punch? That commentator made me cringe.

Wow…DiPietro is a shithead. There’s no other way to describe his stupidity. He actually tried to clothesline Cooke it looked like. Kudos to Johnson for giving D.P. the bitch-slapping he so deserved.

by Caerid112 on Feb 2, 2011 11:36 PM EST reply actions  

I give D.P. props for knocking out Matt Cooke, then I give Johnson props for throwing an elbow to the side of D.P.’s face. I say we enjoyed a good ending.

by NYR #35 Richter on Feb 3, 2011 12:06 AM EST reply actions  

ah i enjoyed that very much

didnt hear the prust reference, which is good because that would take away from it
what an idiotic simile that was

i love how DP has this cocky grin on his face when they tie up, then he just gets knocked down lol

unrelated but damn did you see franzen go off tonight? 5 frickin goals, first time since gaby did it against us

I listen to Enter Sandman before taking exams. I wear the exact same jersey every Giants game. The Rangers goal song goes off in my head when I achieve small successes in life.

DiPietro smirking like a goof right up until he got a hammer wrapped in human skin connecting with his cheek.

Nice shot by Brent Johnson, hats off to you sir.

Got to love the Pittsburgh play-by-play and color guy making a reference to the Staal/Prust incident. That was a little bit different fellas, both guys here were prepared and willing combatants and they had their gloves off.

Right on, Chia!

I love how they prepared for that fight, too. Gloves off, helmets off. Too many pussies fight with visors on, and people like Prust either gotta punch through it (risking injury) or take the time to get it off while dodging punches. Will it break the moment to take a second to take their Prust-damned helmets off!?

Note the Prust-damned line… I was tempted to throw a “Prust forbid” in there too, but didn’t want to overdo it :P
