Watching the high scoring affair between the Ottawa Senators and the Pittsburgh Penguins last night got me thinking about some of my favorite hockey memories. Goalies can really make or break a playoff series.
The thing that always struck me as being funniest was when goaltenders got angry or fought – mostly because they are so armored up – its like watching people fight in those carnival sumo suits…if you just switched the soundtrack to Benny Hill…hilarity would ensue. Above is a homage to some “old time” goalie hockey fights.
I also remember watching the Leafs game in which Felix Potvin fought Ron Hextall and the one where Curtis Joesph fell into the referee…damn, I am a part of Leafs Nation.
