Jimmy Howard vs. Micheal Leighton AHL Goalie Fight Clip

[ThePENNY1999]

howard is almost the best goalie!! OZZIE OZZIE! but Howard is a KICK ASS goalie!!

[adnan9622]

howard was having an awesome year last year but this year he's on a slump. hopefully he can start playing well again.

[LethalStick97]

both guys in the NHL now! howard a starting goalie for detroit, and leighton just played in the finals for philly.. unreal

[TheCamfroggy]

ozie is just to old

[sgttysar]

@TheCamfroggy Osgood is not 2 old... hes still a hall of fame goalie And osgood dont start no more because him and mike babcock dont see eye to eye He dosnt wanna play the way babcock tells him to

[mfactor3]

@sgttysar wow buddy where did you get that info from cause you couldnt be any more wrong osgood completely accepted that howie is the starter in fact hes honored to be his mentor

[sgttysar]

@mfactor3 Ummm Yea hes his mentor BUt iknow Someone who is close To one of the red wings manger And They told me that So shut the fuck up

[mfactor3]

@sgttysar how do you type with dicks in you're hands

[dm101176]

@sgttysar They fucking lied to you about knowing anybody.

[bbxraefan]

howard rocks ozie sucks

[mdmahmoudi]

Howard is a crapy goalie and never gonna win calder trophy.Three games in a row against san jose losing 4-3.That's not sign of good goalie.

[Bearredjordan]

@mdmahmoudi its not crappy goal tending its how the team just shuts down at the last period....

[TUdaToken]

@mdmahmoudi uh he still won a playoff series, he was a key contributor for the wings to get into the playoffs, I know about that horrible goal in game 3 but osgood had awful goals given up in his career but we stuck with him and he backed us up to 2 almost 3 stanley cups, howard will be a very good goalie and with the talent in front of him we'll be back in the finals before you know it

[MoneyMan8900]

Howard is having an okay year in my opinion.

He has games where he rocks and is unbeliveable as a rookie, but then has games where you're like, "What???, did he just let that in?"

[Piques13]

@MoneyMan8900 most of the goals he gives up im wondering what did he just let that in

[Lwojcik77]

Howards doin fuckin work!!!

[bluetreebeat]

Jimmy would have beat crosbys ass today if the refs didnt stop it great game

[ROY33TURCO35]

I got Jimmy's rookie card:) he's one of my favorite goalies in the NHL and my favorite Red Wing

[goaliedudegreg]

Gotta love the Red Wing homers sticking up for Howard. Next thing you know, they'll be calling him an "elite" goalie.

[SirJacksoffalot]

hey so do all those other goalies but they have sucked now

[BushTown563]

Jimmy Howard is the most underrated goalie in the NHL

[bishoppx]

@BushTown563 Both him and Osgood.

[Piques13]

@BushTown563 more like the most overrated

[SirJacksoffalot]

Jimmy Hoawrd is a fucking idiot

[MrJoeK5]

No you are the ******* idiot.

For anyone that hates Jimmy Howard, think you can do better? Don't tell me, show me.

[Piques13]

Howard your a bum

your a nobody

[hockwey321]

who are you...oh yeah nobody. Quit hating

[Piques13]

who is jimmy howard... oh yeah a nobody

[ballhockeygoalie]

who is jimmy howard? they guy who ranks top 15 in GAA so far this season.....

[Piques13]

plays for the team with the best defence. Hes still a bum and a nobody.

[bishoppx]

@Piques13 ROFL. Because Patrick Roy's teams were terrible right?

[Piques13]

Patrick Roy's teams were great and had great defense. You see that helped him and well when Howard is barley putting up decent stats with a great defence then its gotta make you think that this guy is shit. Put him on the Hurricanes and this guy would be barley hovering over an .800 save percentage. Stop trying to defend this guy and deal with it hes a bum.

[bishoppx]

@Piques13 Lol, he just posted a save % of 98 last night. Stopped 51 of 52 QUALITY shots. You're right. LOL!

[Piques13]

Big fucking deal. Its just one game buddy take it easy. All you Red Wing fans are making him out to be a hall of famer after this one game. He is still shit deal with it.

[bishoppx]

@Piques13 Lol, where's your gold medal?

[Piques13]

You want to turn this into Canada vs USA? Are you seriously fucknig kidding me. USA beat Canada and they earned it congrats but Canada did win 5 straight before that. Also on top of that canada had 8 players in the NHL that could have played for the Team plus a couple of injured palyers. So don't worry about it. Canada is still number 1 in hockey and is still number 1 in developing players. So no worries on my side.

[bishoppx]

@Piques13 Lol, not what i'm talking about.

"n April 2002, Howard played for the United States in the 2002 IIHF World U18 Championships in Slovakia. Playing in six tournament games, he led his team to a Gold Medal and was subsequently named USA goaltender of the year."

[SirJacksoffalot]

umm Justin pogge, CArey Price, and Steve MAson all did that for Canada and well they are all struggling now in the NHL. THat doesn't mean anything. Sorry bud past success doesn't equal success in the nhl.

[bishoppx]

@SirJacksoffalot I'm just saying, he has some remarkable achievements and statistics.

[cousins851]

@Piques13....who the fuck is your team? like are you a blackhawk fan that is now worried that the wings are getting healthy and you feel threatened by them? do you not want to give the red wings any credit. this guy has the 4th best save percentage in the league and 8th best GAA. by no means are we making him out to be a hall of famer. but this season, he has played DAMN well. and no, the red wings defense has not always helped him out.

[Piques13]

Howard hasnt helped his Red wings defense at all. He is a momentum killer giving up those soft goals. when the REd wings need a save from him he is no where to be seen.

[duckonthewall]

actually he is doing very well, and as of right now is pretty much the only reason the wings are still hanging on as they try and get healthy. the guy is standing on his head and pretty much the star of the game past couple weeks.. to say he isnt helping defense is a pretty stupid statement.. only thing more stupid is saying he is a momentum killer. doesnt make him hall of fame.  but he gets some credit right now, and has some potential.

[cousins851]

@Piques13 are you kidding me? have you not seen the last two games? he absolutely stoned the kings the entire game and he did the same to the sharks. he is playing just as well if not better than any goaltender in the nhl. (minus Miler). you have to give credit where credit is due. and plus you say that the wings defense is saving him. well the SAVE PERCENTAGE stat shows you that when the opposition DOES shoot. he stops over .915-.920 of them. thats very good. all im saying is give him credit.

[Piques13]

Hes been lucky the last two games. Both the sharks and Kings were shoting from very bad spots. He has had to make some easy saves. Shots from the blueline with no screen is an easy save for any goalie in the nhl. Shot qualirt has been poor for teams facing Howard, espicially the last couple of weeks.

[duckonthewall]

no point with arguing with him. his last post hes just making up things. hes just pulling things out of air to argue with, hes never seen any of the games.

point is. without howard right now, wings would be maybe at least 10 points below where they are. no one is saying hes the new god of goalies. but as of right now, hes performing some of the best out of a wings goalie i've seen in years and years. will it continue? who knows. he has a long way to prove he can keep it up.

[cousins851]

yeah exactly. he carried us through our injury problems. he has exceeded EVERYONE'S expectations. the wings were only HOPING he could play 25 games.. looks like ozzy might not even reach that mark.

[Piques13]

Your kidding me right. Howard has let the team down. It was about time they pulled him last game cause that was lnog over do. Time to go with Osgood who isnt that great but is a major upgrade over Howard but really anyone is a major upgrade over Howard.

[cousins851]

piques im gonna throw your own shit at your face. i seem to recall you saying "he had ONE good game". referring to the game against the kings. and so i guess what you are saying is that, when a goalie has ONE great game, you can't judge him for just that game. but when a goaltender has ONE off night, all of a sudden you jump right in and judge him. fairly hypocritical if you think about it. and im american. neither america or canada develop the best players. russia does.

[Piques13]

first off you guys were the ones gonig crazy about his 51 save game so i just threw that shit at your face. Im not going to turn this into a Canada vs Russia thing cause the main thing is Jimmy Howard is shit.

[cousins851]

ok, you obviously feel threatened by howard. you are a fan of some canadian team and probly the canadians. canadians' fans are the dumbest people to you will speak to. last year they had 4 starters in the all star game. including komisarek who had less than 10 points...and every single year, even though montreal doesnt put out a good team, their fans still think they are the best and they think they will win the stanley cup. its hilarious. so my guess would be you are a montreal fan.

[Piques13]

I think this is the first time you are making sense. Everything you said about Montreal is so right about them. They're a joke of a team and the only thing worse than the habs is Jimmy Howard. Howard is the shitest goalie in the league and i cant believe im saying this but ill take Price over Howard any time. Hell ill take any goalie over Price any day.

[Piques13]

So that says alot about Howard if i would take Price over him

[cousins851]

look piques.. just tell us what your reasoning is for hating jimmy howard. honestly, i just want to know your reason. i bet if you told everyone the reason no one would care nearly as much. look at his stats. he has done very well this year.

[Piques13]

I have nothing against Howard. He is just a shit goalie and i hate how people think there is talent in him. Give it up he is garbage. Its a good thing the Red Wings have Thomas McCollum. THeres a goalie the Red wings should get excited about. Howard is shit hes just trying to hold down the fort, and failing, till Thomas McCollum is ready.

[cousins851]

he is failing? lemme tell you something. howard is in serious consideration for the calder trophy. he has a better GAA than 25 of the other 30 teams starting goaltender. number 4 goaltender in the league this year...id say thats pretty good. and mcollum is overrated. larsson is starting in GR and larsson isnt very good. anyways im done arguing with you. you are just a fan who doesnt use logic when arguing. if you cant even give a reason for hating howard, then no one is going to wanna argue.

[Piques13]

Ive backed up Howard with resaoninig and you have seemed to ignore that. Howard will not win the calder trophy. Tyler Myers will win the calder and if Howard wins it over him and if Howard is even nominated for the calder it shows how much of a joke the nhl is. Please Howard is fucking garbage face it buddy.

[cousins851]

you have not given anyone a reasonable answer. just saying "He sucks" isnt an answer. you have to tell people WHY he sucks. your excuse of him playing in front of the red wings is a terrible excuse. because the red wings have had innjuries all year on the defensive end. we have missed ericsson, kronwall, rafalski, and we have also had a ton of injuries up front. meaning that howard has been saving oru asses. we get out shot night adter night and yet we have been winning lately. thank you howard!

[cousins851]

no he doesnt. you are crazy. his lateral movement is fine. what you are saying is that this whole year has been luck for howard. YOU CANNOT PLAY IN THE NHL WITH LUCK!!!! he is playing against the best players in the world and statistically he is the 4th best goalie in the league this year. he does NOT play too deep in his net. and even if he did, and im not saying he does, but even if he did, i wouldnt want to to change it. it seems to be working seen how he only gives up 2.20 goals per game...

[Piques13]

The guy is terrible. He has been lucky so far this season, he would be sucking in the AHL if he was on any other team. Red wings goaltending are shit and he wouldnt be good enough to play on other teams. The guy is SHIT. Just give up trying to defend him cause his numbers are gonna drop and then your gonig to save how much Jimmy "The Saviour" Howard sucks. Get a real goalie Red Wings!

[cousins851]

i am done arguing with you. you are insanely clueless about hockey. this is the NH-fucking-L okay dude. you cannot be "lucky" in this league. especially for 4 months. what you are saying is that howard has gotten lucky the last 4 months in the greatest hockeyleague in the world. i dont care if you reply. im done arguing with someone who doesnt use goddamn logic. all you say is because he "sucks". you use absolutely no logic in your arguments. you are arguing like a 12 year old baby. pce.

[Piques13]

No sir you are fucking stupid. I have given you logic. I told you what his flaws were and you just continously say i dont use logic. I am using logic you idiot. You are just a 12 year old baby complaining cause you cant win this argument.

[cousins851]

your logic was that he was "too slow" well. you know what? obviously he isnt since he is 4th in the fucking nhl is GAA. so no, hes not too slow. and he doesnt ruin momentum. if anything he builds it. how the fuck else were we supposed to win some of those games. jimmy fucking howard saved our fucking ass and you are pissing the fuck out of me. you are the only fucking person on youtube that i have seen that thinks howard fucking sucks. if he fucking sucked he wouldnt be in the nhl. fuck you

[Piques13]

First of all he fucknig sucks nuff said. 2nd of all i can't wait till this day next year where jimmy Howard wil lbe shiting the bed worse than this year and i will be commenting laughing at all you. Cousins851 deal with it Howard is a bum, a nobody. He is so shit!

[cousins851]

like i said. you are talking out of your ass. and no come to think of it, you ARENT using logic. because all of your reasons are bullshit. you say he sucks, and if you say howard sucks then you say 26 other goaltenders in the league sucks. you ARENT using logic. you are giving reasons that are the stupidest reasons one can give. fuck you. im done arguing with such a lame ass.

[Piques13]

like i said stats dont tell the whole story. So going by your logic sicne Howard has better stats than Luongo, Kipper, Lundqvist, Brodeur, Nabokov, Bryzgalov, Fleury, Thomas, Ward, and Varlamov he must be better than them. Like come on man hes not, Hes been a bit lucky but those stats will drop and then we will see whos so good. Howard is shit.

[cousins851]

look man, one of us is going to be right. as of right now, howard is doing amazing. his whole career should be made of how he does in the long run. so me saying he is going to be amazing (which i NEVER said he was going to be amazing OR become one of the greatest) and you saying he sucks is compeltely unfair to howard. only time will tell. but what i was saying is that he is doing amazing RIGHT NOW! and you cannot take that away from him. only time will tell if he "sucks".

[molz3713]

You wanna say that now? Jimmy Calder trophy buddy... He's better than all of them.

[Piques13]

are you kidding me? Tukka Rask has been better than Jimmy Howard this year. and while were talknig about rookie of the years Tyler Myers>Tukka Rask>. Every other rookie> Jimmy Howard.

[goblew14]

@Piques13 your a dumbass how many points the bruins have? and 7 games below 500

[Piques13]

@goblew14 okay you are the dumbass. Just because the bruins have less points doesnt mean Rask is worse than Howard. Using your logic since THeodoreplays on the capitals and they are the best team in the league i guess Theodore is better than Miller, Brodeur, Luongou.

[cccchristien]

@Piques13 Lmfao. Good luck on Tukka getting the calder. Doubt that's going to happen. Howard's played more games and performed well in most of them. He's a big part of the reason the wings are doing so well again.

[FlaHockeyPlayer]

ur a moron he has a 9.24 save percentage and 9.35 gaa...you cant argue with that

[Piques13]

@FlaHockeyPlayer who the hell wants a goalie with a 9.35 GAA.

[Jdawg0492]

@Piques13 I know your just trying to piss people off, but Howard is easily one of the best rookies of this year, and if you are serious then your just plain ignorant and unwilling to look at the statistics.

[kaputa814]

@Piques13 hahahaha rask has played far less games than howard and plays the pathetic teams of the eastern conference. bring him out west and see how well he fairs. i can't wait for jimmy to hold the calder trophy, then shit in your front yard and on rasks face.

[joreycrosst33n74]

@Piques13 fuck u bitch!!!!!!!!!! u suck the biggest monkey balls u fuckin prick!ozzy sucks not howard

[Piques13]

@Joeycross how about you just shut your mouth. If you are just going to insult me and not have a decent argument then get out of here.

[MrNjdevilsfan30]

whoa Whoa OZZZY SUCKS YEA RIGHT

[TrueNegro]

you are mean and dumb, and u do not even watch or like the red wings, otherwise u would call the red wings 'we'. we are fine and we love jimmy

[Piques13]

jsut because i dont call them we doesnt mean i dont like them. I think the red wings are a great team its just a shame they have such a brutual goalie.

[iamemocore]

thats why howard is 8th in the league in goaltending... huh. :)

[TCONA360]

howard!!@!

[BHHFilms]

I have Howard's rookie card, he's totaly the best goalie in the AHL, and soon to be the best in the NHL.

[glovethief30]

RASK.

[Swiftfeather133]

Huh?

[killermudmonkey]

Wrong, Michal Nuivirth is by far the best in the AHL, followed by Cory Schneider and Tuukka Rask. Then Howard.

[goalie75]

Can't wait till Howard is playin for Detroit. Ozie and Hasek can't play forever

[cjm502]

Hasek just retired and Howard is going to be ozzys back up goalie for the 08-09 season.

[ARod016]

I wish. Osbad fucking blows, and they signed Conklin, another year in Grand Rapids for my boy Jimmy...

VIVA HOWARD!

[cjm502]

Fuck Ozzy he let in 7 tonight what a piece of shit.

[ARod016]

Osbad, also known to as "Fish out of water" with the way he flops around the net, needs to get out, quick.

Call Howard up, get him ready for the big leagues with a few starts here and there, and in time, he'll become a star.

[guitarherorandyrhoad]

AMEN BROTHER

[sethpink]

[irondude71]
