Haha, these are awesome.

I'm at work now, so I'll have to watch them all sporadically through the day. Then I'll post back here about them.

Awesome! thanks!

Quick question. My brother has a ton of these on vhs. He just got a new comp with dvd burner. What is the best and cheapest way to get them onto his pc so he can burn them to dvd.

If I ever find a good rip of the Piestasny Punch-Up online I will die of happiness. The whole damn game was on ESPN Classics Canada before christmas and I didn't know - I would have signed up for the channel JUST FOR THAT. Idiot family mentioning it the next day and then all admitting they forgot to tape it.

You guys better go easy on the bandwidth - that page better be up when I get home because I'm going to leech them all. :lol

Calgary Vs Anaheim 3 is HILARIOUS. The ref drops the puck *boom* 4 fights break out immediately. :lol

Oh crap I just scanned it and I don't see any Jets/Canucks scraps. :(

The glorious beatdowns the noble Jets inflicted on the trembling girl-men from the Left Coast in response to a dastardly sneak attack on Teemu by a shifty-eyed and cowardly Mike Peca were truly inspired. And pretty constant too, at least until everyone was kicked out. :lol It was the last time I can remember actually cheering for Tkachuk and Tie Domi.

Pfft....if that nancy-boy Selanne had been paying attention to rule #1 of the NHL - keep your head up instead of admiring your passes - Peca wouldn't have had the opportunity to turn him into Finnish paste. I'd explode with rage as well, if I was Teemu's teammate....rage and embarassment at committing such an egregious rookie error. :p

Woot, some of these are awesome! :D


Also, in preparing to get them I found a fantastic firefox extension!

Holy shit, Laraque vs Thieriau is awesome, old school removing the lids and everything. The fact Thieriau was able to not die was pretty impressive considering how Laraque was throwing him around. :lol

Ray and Vial is one of those great quick fights, throwing really fast.

I may be a jackass, in fact I'm pretty sure I am, but seeing my Sportsnet nemesis Kypreos get KOed is always good for a looksee.

Reminds me of another player that can't seem to remember this rule. Naslund!!!
Canucks are and always will be full of Europeon Nancy boys except for my boy GIIIIINO.

You'd think Peca would've remembered that rule, instead of crying like a fucking female over Tucker's hit.

BOOHOO, HE WENT LOW ON ME...shut the fuck up.

Holy shit! Sakic vs Gilmour?! :lol

:lol That's wild...

I haven't downloaded these fights yet (gonna get Down Them All first), but the funniest fight on that page by far is obviously Potvin vs Hextall. Seeing the cat kick his ass at the Spectrum was one of the greatest moments of my sporting life.

The lack of Clark and Probert fights disappoints me though...Probert vs McSorley is probably the best fight I've ever seen (they went for what, two, three minutes?), and Clark vs McSorley in the '93 playoffs was absolutely electric, even though my boy Wendel lost the decision.

Man I hate ESPN.

Brashear vs Cairns Fight.

The announcer is all 'that is not the right thing to do' when Brashear (the black guy) wins the fight. Then when Langdon (another white guy) attacks Brashear after the fight, 'now I donot blame Langdon... I donot blame the Rangers'.

Pathetic excuse for a sports network.

:lol It's pretty amazing seeing how differently the Leafs/Flyers brawl from 2000 was covered, which are both on the site. I'd always wondered why Domi was called a chicken cause the CBC feed didn't show him that much. But the Flyer feed had the camera on him non-stop, and shows Domi doing so much hiding he could've transformed into a turtle. :lol It really didn't look good.

Yeah, I thought Domi was such a badass... and then there was that BS performance in the second Flyers video. What was with him that night, I wonder?

The lesson for everyone is that Tie Domi is, and always was, a total assclown.

My mom saw Tie Domi when she was getting a knee replacement this past summer. She was in the pre-surgery area getting anesthesia and sharing a room with her was none other than Tie Domi. My mom told me that Domi was PETRIFIED of the needle that the anesthetist was using to knock him out. He was freaking out and everything, practically crying. All the nurses were making fun of him behind his back.

Anyway, my favorite fight is the Leroux vs Twist fight. That was in the playoffs a few years back. I believe Leroux got thrown out because they thought he had some sort of sharp edge on his bandage. Twist got messed up.

What an outrage! One tough guy going after another. /rolleyes

I found some of the commentaters were the best entertianment on some clips. The Tasker fights, one of the Roy fights and some of the Buffalo ones had me rolling.

That one clip with the multiple fights with "Welcome to the Jungle" playing has a quick scene showing some of the Malarchuk incident, I think that is the most disturbing thing I've even seen on ice.

This all stemmed from the previous year when the Leafs upset the Flyers in the first round. Domi and McCarthey had yapped it up a few times, and when they were lined up Domi shook his knees in a pretty comical scene. Well in another game they talked trash some more, and it got kinda nasty. McCarthey accused Domi of calling him a racial slur, while Domi accused Sandy of being a complete liar, spitting on him, and vowing to never fight him again due to losing all respect for him (that's part of "the code" in hockey). Well in the brawl that we were just talking about, that was Sandy and his guys trying to get at Domi, and Domi wanted nothing to do with Sandy at all. They eventually buried the hatchet a couple summers later which I'm personally happy about, cause that was pretty nasty stuff.

Who the hell are you? Naslund was nailed while defenseless - if you'd seen the video you'd know that. Go back to lurking and hit the dictionary while you're at it.
