I always just assumed he was Canadian. He sure sounds like it. And anytime Maple Leaf fans have an unhealthy fascination with a mouth-breathing grinder, you can typically assume that person is Canadian and be right 90% of the time.
Can I still think he's a ****stick? Because he's a ****stick. Pretty incredible that a dude with so little skill that he couldn't manage to avoid plowing into a goalie managed to score 3 goals, though. Makes sense I guess. Ryan Reeves and Tony Twist were always putting up post-season hattys. |

I could watch shit like this all day. Twist and Probert had some epic wars.

And yes, you can think he's a ****stick. I'm kind of leaning into the rivalry at this point - it makes the sport more interesting. I still think Blues fans are largely being irrational about THIS year, but it's obvious it's as much about last year even if this year's incident triggered it. |
Last one. You know you're a badass when you can fill a 2-hour video with just your fights

I kind of feel like Nostradamus from last night. Not sure I'll ever be so consistent at predicting outcomes again.

BTW, Twist actually didn't have many fights compared to other enforcers. He never hit 200 PIM in a season. He didn't play many games though. |

But if you had a game you knew you'd need some muscle in, he was handy to have around. |
Deadspin + Blackhawks fan = true trash piece

yeah, like I'm giving Deadspin a click.
**** those guys. |
For what it's worth, here's what Bednar had to say about it. Someone asked him if Berube should have said something. He said no and explained:

Not last year, when Avs fans said some vile shit to Ryan Reaves during/after their playoff matchup. I don't recall anyone expecting the Avs organization to make a statement denouncing those comments. I'm actually having a hard time thinking of any instance of a team being pressured to comment on the actions of a private citizen, though there probably have been. |
I think (hope) that some of the Kadri stuff will simmer down in the next game. For the Blues, they're gonna have to be more focused if they want to keep the series alive. For the Avs, they're just ready to be done so they can take a few days off. And for the media, is there really much more that can be said?
I'm definitely ready to stop talking about Kadri and start focusing on the actual game. |
