Fight: Matt Cooke vs Ryan Callahan (11-28-2009)

[diegoteinog]

Wait, why the misconducts?

[IJustWatchEm71]

Never thought I'd see it. Cooke knows how to fight fair???

[BallerInferno93]

Cooke couldn't win this fight unless Cally was on the ground, then Cooke could throw more punches

[Kath5099]

That's a pretty dope fight

[pnpny04]

I'm surprised Cooke didn't try swinging with his elbows

[aerosnowu2]

i don't watch hockey so i admit my ignorance, but this looks so staged...the refs just let it go down without stopping the fight until they are hugging for 10 seconds. wtf, fake and gay?

[giantsalltheway123]

@aerosnowu2 if you've ever tried fighting someone while wearing ice skates you'd understand...its not easy.

[giantsalltheway123]

@aerosnowu2 and another thing....at least hockey allows fighting....if this was MLB NBA or NFL the players would be suspended for months....hockey isn't a pussy sport.

[Beavis1144]

@giantsalltheway123 Some would say your a pussy if you have to fight in any sport. I like hockey fights, but it doesn't mean other athletes aren't tough.

[blinkjagr]

@aerosnowu2 if you don't know anything about hockey then shut up i guess those punches to the face were fake

[landewebshow]

@aerosnowu2 LOL, you try standing on ice skates, let alone keeping your balance while fighting.

[TimboBandit]

@aerosnowu2 The refs let it happen because they don't want to get punched in the mouth. They only jump in once things calm down.

Whoo awsom song in the back WALK by pantera

[SteelCity871]

dont hate the player hate the game. cooke plays his role on whatever team he is on.

[TeHxShwinK]

@SteelCity871 Being a dirty player isn't a role on a team. You have no idea what you're talking about.

[88920videos]

why did they get a misconduct

[herroitsuba]

do u have the video of cooke elbowing anisimov?

i missed the game and i want to know wut the fuss is about....

its hard to find hockey on tv in southern cali haha

[GhostWalker40]

It's on the highlight video, which I just uploaded

It's not an elbow, it's a shoulder check

[ramjet26]

@herroitsuba

it was not really an elbow, Anisimov had his head down and cooke just hit him open ice and clean, the rookie needs to keep his head up, callahan and cooke, good bout, .... I am a ranger fan, but there was nothing dirty about the hit

[NYR264]

then y did cooke get suspended?

[GhostWalker40]

Because he's not a star.

The NHL is a fucking joke league

[NYR264]

true, look @ this

Pittsburgh Penguins star Evgeni Malkin won't be suspended for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup finals despite drawing an instigator penalty in the final 19 seconds of a 3-1 loss to Detroit in Game 2 on Sunday night.

Under NHL rules, any player drawing an instigating penalty in the final five minutes is to be suspended for the next game, but the rule allows considerable flexibility depending on the circumstances.

[GhostWalker40]

Yeah, because we all know that Malkin was the only one to throw punches.

Get a clue troll

[NYR264]

doesnt matter who throws punches, "any player drawing an instigating penalty in the final five minutes is to be suspended for the next game"

[GhostWalker40]

Oh but now you leave out the "but the rule allows considerable flexibility depending on the circumstances".

Nice try, but you fail

[NYR264]

Okay guy, that just shows how the league favors "stars". 1st u said the league is a joke n now ur stickin up 4 their ruling. make up ur mind.

[GhostWalker40]

What Malkin did had nothing to do with that rule since he wasn't the only one throwing punches.

Besides, you have to go back to last year to make your argument, which isn't surprising.

[LaLaLaLakeport99]

sure the league is a joke....but the fact of the matter is that cooke clearly went for the head....it doesn't matter that he didn't use the elbow....a headshot is a headshot...he even left his feet a bit BEFORE not after impact...the joke here is that he only got 2 games

[GhostWalker40]

Yep, just like those 2 games that Richards got, huh?

Oh and you're blocked for being a troll

[kavita88]

Love Cooke! Miss him on the Canucks...glad he's with the Pens though :)

[zacksemus]

awesome fight
