Matt Niskanen vs Shane Hnidy Nov 1, 2008

[AEMoreira81]

Niskanen fought---but someone should have beaten down Sean Avery.

[buttkick22]

hnidy was beating on a non fighter who didn't even have his gloves off and had no interest in actually fighting. That's really not impressive guys..

[Bruinsfan54]

....and i still miss hnidy.

[Bruinsfan54]

lovin the ref holding looch back cuz he knows someones gonna be on the ice bleeding if he lets him go

[khav11]

[BruinsPuckhead]

[TheR1Z3]

[drinksy1212]

avery=pussy

[ScottieBaio]

damn you people are quick

[jose4891]

[DeFySniping]

[3101jimbo]

hockey looks fucking awsome !

[MegaSkittleman]

@3101jimbo it is fucking awesome

[DustyDinkleman26]

yup savard wont fight avery like a man and just decides to punch avery while hes down and defenseless...PUSSY PUSSY PUSSY...also edwards with your HOMER BIAS BULLSHIT announcing...SHUT YOUR FUCKING FACE U FUCK....soooooo gaaaaaay he is...him and brinkley probably share the same room during away games and butt fuck each other till one unloads there freight into the other mouth while talking about how great the bruins are...FUCK OFF. gimme a break

[LeGiiTVaMpiiRe]

@DustyDinkleman26 u dont like it go fucking kill ur self that simple

[DustyDinkleman26]

@LeGiiTVaMpiiRe lol

[Bruins0615]

@LeGiiTVaMpiiRe agree 100% hahah. must be an islanders fan

[LeGiiTVaMpiiRe]

@Bruins0615 yep 

[Bruins0615]

@DustyDinkleman26 hey douche bag you have as much class as your homeboy avery. avery was lying down because of his low hit from behind cheap shot on a "defenseless" lucic. fair game for anyone to beat the hell out him. As for Edwards and Brickley, theyre doing their job. They are the announcers for the Bruins, what do you expect dipshit? you must have some sort of bitterness about the gay comments cause you heard them every day at school until you dropped out after your 3rd try at 9th grade

[njdkidd1231]

gotta love edwards, he makes the games so much better and way more exciting

[BPrinzo11]

just like avery lol

[C248D]

"Wow 5 on 1. What tough guys"? Shut The Fuck Up u faggot. Avery blatantly hit him from behind, what a tough guy, thats hard to do when he can't protect himself.

[1knucklehead13]

if i could, i would beat the fuckin shit out of these stupid faggot announcers

[dudes420]

@1knucklehead13 hahaha well ya cant. sit on your computer some more ya queer and talk shit.

[laums22793]

what a douche. and "matty niskanen" will always be a pretty little boy. the need to be punched in the nuts

[1knucklehead13]

and so do u

[lacore1988]

are those announcers serious

[xice7x]

sadly enough they are. its kinda pathetic.

[DX1771]

Wow, 5 on 1. What tough guys. And of course Niskanen is going to get his ass kicked, he's not a fighter. And jesus, could these commentators be bigger homers.

[TheKindVillain]

Happy the Wild got Hnidy. Good pickup

[OvEcHkInG2831]

WOW congratulations "Sheriff" Shane, you beat a guy who never fights....interesting that the "Sheriff" never tries to go with the REAL tough guys. That in my book is spelled P-U-S-S-Y.

[nicky478]

Haha you're an idiot . . . Hnidy has had about five fights in his career

[Rattus17]

I'm gonna miss Shane Hnidy even if he had to move to make space for Matt Hunwick. He kicked Niskanen's ass

[cjsx1794]

its so fun watching avery get his ass kicked because of what a loser he is all he does is curl up like a pussy its awesome

[cjsx1794]

once again something started because of none other than the biggest pussy in the nhl, avery

[cjsx1794]

this was one of my favorite games the bruins kicked so much ass in this game

[jak2127]

the worst play by play ever... haha just terrible

[kart48]

i'm gonna miss shane hnidy so much

[jbboom52]

@kart48 guess who is getting a tryout for the bruins today...Shane Hnidey, he very well may be back soon

[TheR1Z3]

@kart48 hes back!!!

[Bruinsfan54]

@kart48 HES BACK BABY!

[kida026]

"Shane Hnidy (born November 8, 1975 in Neepawa, Manitoba, Canada)"

Seriously folks? He's Canadian you fools. I assume you are talking about Hnidy...

[Gunnariffic]

They're talking about Niskanen... The guy with the obvious Finnish last name..

[ntheloc]

So pumped to have Hnidy playing in Minnesota... we can finally get rid of the B-Virus.

[lacore1988]

b-virus..? bergeron ?

[pjfislord]

get rid of the pests people like avery need to die!!!

[Tomtegubben457]

Niskanen born in U.S? Finnish last name...

[HelmondS]

Finnish immigrant ancestors perhaps

[maestro225]

He's from Northern Minnesota

[marc9k]

yes. he is a minnesota native of the iron range

[lacore1988]

minnesota born... lots of finnish and scandnavian heritage in northern minnesota

[theoryneutral]

weakling is right

[stonesfan1218]

Love watching Hnidy tune up the tool who thought he should defend a bigger tool, Sean Avery ...

[GrundulNugget]

sherriff

[mirzayanov]

no NHL needs players like ott, avery and downie, they make the game way more fun

[cheez30]

i would have loved to see ott get his ass kick by lucic. and by that i mean complete re arrangement of his facial features and bone structure and bout an ounce of blood on the ice. guys like him need to flat out banned from the game. cheap shotting little bitch

[What3verz]

That announcer sounds like he's half drunk and piping his commentary in, from a gay biker bar

[bribrifry]

that doesn't even make sense...he's obviously in the arena and in a booth, are you typing from a gay biker bar?

[What3verz]

Heh? I could have sworn he was wasted at a gay bar. Never mind then. Oh wait, is it just me or does he sound now sound like a kid sniffing glue and watching fake wrestling that he thinks is real.

[Rattus17]

"sound now sound"???

proof read you comments. Maybe then you wont sound like a retarded, glue sniffer sitting in a gay biker bar

[What3verz]

When meh belly starts a rumblin'

And I'm jonesin' for a treat

I open my eyes to a big surprise

The new Tender Crisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch

[chewyisthatyou]

@what3verz that doesnt even fuckin rhyme

[2nuggs1]

whats with you and gay bars man.....what you dont like pussy????????

[What3verz]

I love the Tender Crisp Bacon Cheddar

The chicken breasts grow on trees

The rivers of blue cheese dressing

Flow right up to your knees

[KevinC119]

*Niskanen* "don't worry sean ill save ya!

*hnidy grabs niskanen* " AHH SHIT! IM SORRY AHH! FUCK! SHIT!

[KHayes666]

lackluster rescue by Niskanen to say the least

[HockeyStuffGuy]

if u look at mine u can see all of what happened that game!

[starsfanmorrow]

haha wow jack edwards is a tool, no way i could listed to that idiot for a whole season

[Bosox07WSC]

then shut your fucking mouth and don't listen to him, don't bitch.

[ksark87]

I love that this is the only sport that almost encourages fighting!!!!! SOOO FUNNY!

[TheKwonDaileyReport]

Avery got his ass whipped

[Bruin7283]

and timmy wanted to fight turco but the stars are pussies

[Bosox07WSC]

and turco was a pussy he wouldn't fight tim thomas, who is TINY. you can't really see it in the video, but i was at this game and thomas skated to center ice and turco just stared at him.

[What3verz]

Turco is on a level that people like you just aren't at. I'm not even trying to insult you by saying that. I'm just saying, that you don't understand. No doubt, Turco watched him skate up to the line and thought, "Wow.. what an utter and complete tool".  lol

[Bruin7283]

while avery pulls his pussy turtle move cus savvy owns him, hnidy pounds the shit outta niskanen lmfao. such a great game to watch!

[Csp91]

Niskanen! was it worth trying to save Avery now?

[KHayes666]

lol Edwards is annoying but its funny to listen to. Sherrif Shane Hnidy...sounds like a wrestler.

[slapshotcade]

puttin on the foil boys!!! lol

[slapshotcade]

OLD TIME HOCKEY!!!!!!!!

[shybee]

Thats last year, your the forth worst team in the NHL.  This year, your teams a joke.

[gogoblackngold]

2 things.

1. Jack Edwards owns all anouncers.

2. Sean Avery hearts dudes in and around his mouth.

between avery and ott, who pitches and who catches?

[DerangedRanger1]

@gogoblackngold 1. Boston announcers are ridiculous.; 2. Avery does his job (watch him against the Devils this year considering his history with Brodeur, Clarkson & Kovalchuk; it should be funny to watch them come apart emotionally); 3. Why are Pittsburgh fans making a big deal out of this Sydney Crosby beats Niskanen thing - I haven't seen a video yet where Niskanen wins.; 4. What happened to the Bruins last year in the playoffs? Do you think the can fix that or will they choke again?

[trioxyz7]

@gogoblackngold 2 more things

1. Shut up all you edwards haters

2. Hnidy F***ed up Niskanen

[slot962]

@gogoblackngold Jack Edwards is the biggest idiot in all of hockey.

[3asi1y]

@slot962 you bite your tongue, jack edwards is twice the man youll ever be

[JohnCarbz]

Those are Boston anouncers they are supposed to be biased. I love Jack he makes the game great.

and the stars are in last place in the conference, who cares what they did last year?

[amn22492]

the stars suck lol...

[lacore1988]

godamn that announcer is so bad i would hate to have him.. is he for boston? id listen to the radio and have the tv on mute.

[forzanohockey]

are gonna win the division*

[forzanohockey]

knidy did kick the livin shit out of niskanen.... only one anouncer is bad not the other one,

Go Bruins! representin springfield jr pics 95's..... bruins are gonna the division bitches

[rydon]

Biased announcers, yes.

However, what they're saying was true, ott did take a cowards way out by landing boarderline and potentially career ending hits to the knees and didnt stand up, but ran away from what he did...so yes, i agree with them calling him a coward.

If you watched the whole game and saw some of the dirt the Stars were doing you'd say the same thing, it was disgusting.

[amn22492]

the announcers are great. Ott and Avery should be shot

and they deserved what they got. too bad there are no more games against the stars this year, chara, thornton, lucic, et al would beat the shit out of those 2

GO BRUINS

[HockeyJock6476]

They're biased because it's a New England Sports Network assholes

[hubgapaz]

what's up with the fucking biased announcers?

[meanwiddlekid]

What fucking asshole announcers.

[AGP12345]

what fucking bostonian announcers. We wouldn't expect you to like them anyway, you're only gonna hear them all the time if you live in new england.

[meanwiddlekid]

Bostonians. Assholes. Same thing.

[ta4586]

at 0:23 you can even see tim thomas being held back by the linesman

[777kuku777]

Avery, Ott and f...ers like them should be kicked out of NHL!!!

[zhockeyrulz13]

i have just a couple things to say:

1. Shane Hnidy is the man and competely killed Niskanen

2. Sean Avery is a prick

3. Steve Ott is the biggest pussy i have ever seen in my entire life

And finally

i agree with Rattus17 Hull's Skates were in the crease

[flaminfahlman]

way to go Avery. Hiding behind the stripes again

[studpuppie29]

Totally lame...looks like they're enjoying humping each other near the boards. Quit wasting everyone's time & play the game that you're being paid for. Otherwise go find a REAL job like everyone else(has). Grow up gOOn!

[jdsmak]

eat a dick avery, u love it

[Qcssipi]

i am mtl fan but i just can cheers at the bruins team mentality

[thegoonge]

(at 1:30)...you're damn right, that's not the first time Avery has found himself at the bottom of a pile of five guys!!!

...that's right, I said it.

[aehayek2428]

shane hnidy just unloaded on him

[BostonGarden]

Niskanen should retire. Only way to save what little piece of being a man he has left after taking a horrendous beating.

[onhansevarma]

Avery is spineless coward, but so is Savard who is punching Avery when he is on his knees. What a loser :(

[BostonGarden]

Avery could have ended Lucic's career with that cheapshot. Because of the that, Savard was justified in what he did.

[317kidkash]

i do recall hnidy challenging ott earlier in the game, and what happend?? oh thats right ott declined... just sayin

[Csp91]

I respected the Stars before this game... now there paying the the two biggest shames to hockey being Avery and Ott... now I wouldn't even spit in Dallas because of this discrace to the NHL that is the Dallas Stars.

[cuongha29]

are you kidding me? the stars have been one of the classiest organizations ever since their arrival in dallas in 93. theyve done wonders for hockey in the south.

[JimFrank]

Im a Bruins fan and i agree with you. Dallas has done wonders for the NHL but, the have Avery now and the shit is starting to hit the fan.

[Csp91]

I wouldn't call the Stars classy anymore for signing the biggest pieces of shit which are Ott and Avery who don't have a single brave bone in their body.... Lucky they still have Mike or I wouldn't even care what happens to a star.

[Rattus17]

despite the fact the fact that the stars are a strong organization that has done a world of good for hockey Steve Ott is a disgrace to mankind. If you are going to play the way they do you have to be willing to take whats coming to you. Ott ran away from Hnidy, he ran away from Lucic, he ran away from Thornton. You can't play that style if you're a spineless coward.

PS Hull's skates were in the crease

[rustyb5101]

okay dont like talk shit about Niskanen he is not a fighter he is a small D and he did what ott would not do which is fight u have to give him props for fighting

[What3verz]

"Matty Niskanen's not gonna be a pretty little boy anymore!" ... has got to be one of the most ignorant, ridiculous comments I've ever heard from an announcer, and I'm not saying that just because he sounds like a cousin screwing, alcohol brain-damaged 15 year old redneck who's fondling himself while watching the Rock beat up the Undertaker on WWE. I'm saying it because he seems to be getting off on watching a skilled, NON-fighter being senselessly pounded by someone with sharts for brains.

[logik4l]

what a douche. it was his way of saying welcome to the nhl. he had similar comments to lucic after he broke his nose. jack and andy are the best of the best.

get a grip man... sucks to be a dallas fan that night. even Modano thinks that game was sad and pathetic, and would rather have a desk job.

you my friend, are a loser!!!!

[What3verz]

Ha. Well his way of saying "welcome to the NHL" (assssuming that's what he was doing), doesn't make his comment any less ridiculous. Well, I've examined the rest of your comment and it's a load of blanket, unfounded jibber jabber and doesn't rate a response.

[cuongha29]

Hnidy, classiest guy to drop gloves with Niskanen who doenst fight. Reminds me of Brashear attacking Bogosian.

At least Brashear CAN fight the only reason Hnidy chose this was because it was one he could win.

And talk about obnoxious commentators! they probably jizzed their pants. the stars commentators are classy, way classier.

[BostonGarden]

Do the Stars announcers still think icing is only something on cake?

[silverandblack68]

Bettmans protection of Sean Avery makes me puke. Someone needs to cut this kid wide open he needs to run out of the league once and for all.

[Neuspeed99]

Bravo on Hnidy for beating up a guy who's never been in an NHL fight before, without even allowing him time to take off his gloves.

And people call Avery a pussy?

[BostonGarden]

Neskinen "got his kisser rearranged." Just like you would, wimp.

[Neuspeed99]

Wimp? L-M-A-O, are you trying to be an internet tough guy? Wow, grow up

[What3verz]

haha, great comment. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Niskanen getting pounded. He's not only never been in an NHL fight before, but never intends to, either. Hnidy's a twag for senslessly pounding on a guy, just because he's in a different jersey.

[BostonGarden]

I haven't seen a sheriff lay down that bad a beating since the Rodney King incident.

I nominate Jack Edwards to be inducted into the broadcasters wing of the Hockey Hall of Fame.

[seehound619]

Avery is a piece of shit.....checking guys from behind into the boards accomplishes absolutely NOTHING.... what a faggot....glad he got a misconduct.....should have gotten a gross/game misconduct.

[patdud]

Avery was fucking turtling, cause hes a little bitch

everyone calling savvy a pussy? are you fucking kidding me?

Avery and Ott were fucking reincarnations of Claude the Fraud last night, fucking starting shit and running with their tails between their legs, fucking pussies

[hellenkeller234]

hnidy demolished that guy on the left side of the screen

[DustyDinkleman26]

yea but if your gonna fight dont be a pussy about it and slap with your gloves on then savard was yapping with avery from 0:27-0:29 id like to c savard fight avery and avery will kick his ass savard was all talk but if the ref diddnt have a hold of avery...savard would of been done......these annnouncers r peices of shit fuckin bias assholes

[jamariogoon]

i hate avery so much

[wildwilly112]

Classic Sean Avery...he's such a little bee-otch!!!

[hotdutchmatty]

Wow, talk about a whole pile of guys you just love to hate, and they're all pounding on each other. You gotta admit, Avery has it coming, and sooner or later, he'll have to pay up. Anyone remember Ulf Samuelsson?

[natenatenate23]

niskanen could have stayed out of it but at least he came into help. I gaurentee he will earn respect on the team after that. All of you who talk shit would have been knocked out laying on the ice. Niskanen jumping in for a teammate says more then just winning the fight

[DustyDinkleman26]

oh please hindy was unloading on niskanen before he even had his gloves off....and the announcer was saying niskanen was getting his kisser rearranged when he was getting helplessly pounded on and savard the pussy he his throwing glove punches when avery was on his knees wtf

[carmie1818]

Savard's coach's would have a shit if he dropped his gloves. Those hands are for putting up 100 points/season, not fighting some asshole. The announcer is a complete tool, but I do agree with him concerning Avery.

[hockeyr5]

Dallas absolutly blows this year.

[wingsfan28]

ah i wish Lucic fought that homo

[Hopeyoudietoday]

Hnidy kicks the fucking shit out of that poor bastard...and Avery rolls around like a silly bitch getting punched in the head...as usual

[batter10456]

If people here did not watch the game, don't comment. It all started with Steve Ott's hit at the buzzer to end the first period.  Oh, and Jack Edwards (the announcer) does suck. This is from a Bruins fan.

[carmie1818]

Avery's big mouth help start it also. They are the two biggest assholes in the entire NHL, and they play on the same fucking team.

[batter10456]

I don't dispute that, but Ott got the ball rolling. It went downhill from there, it really did. I found it funny that the gloves for Ott and Avery were practically glued onto them. And when Avery's gloves came off, it was against Ference, someone who rarely fights. An entertaining game, and I am glad the Bruins are a tough team, again. It is very encouraging, last night.

[carmie1818]

Those 2 pricks have always been that way. Ever since junior, they always pick their spots. I would have loved to see Lucic kick the shit out of Avery. That would instantly make Lucic the most popular player in the NHL. Even Avery's teammates would quietly thank him.

[hellenkeller234]

hahahhaha hnidy ended that guys life in that fight

[rydon]

Also do the commentators suck? or are they stating the truth, cause if you watched the game, which you probably didnt...Avery and Ott were trying to cheapshot the B's all night.

[lightsout38]

yea they suck...its not just this game either they are always like that. classless

[rydon]

I watched this game, and as a huge Bruins fan i have never been so proud of my team ever. Ott was going for the knees earlier that night, and Avery was yapping his face off. But when it came to crunch time, they both put their coward tails between their legs and ran away. In Fact, Lucic and Thornton were trying to scrap Avery and Ott but instead Avery chose to dance with Ference and he didnt even win that one. I loved when Savvy was throwing wrecking balls down on Avery as well, atta boy Savvy

[sportsfreakpete6]

sean avery needs a nice stick to the face...and i'd think more of the guy who did it

[lightsout38]

this commentator sucks....wtf..

[ehhd00d]

Avery is a joke.  Go back to the fashion world, princess.

[leafsman15]

Sean Avery ... most gutless player in the NHL ... hope he's suspended at least a few games for that ...

[daajkoot99]

trade my ass he was hitting him on the ground what a puss

[ndvfdff33]

Fuckin Avery. God damn weasel. He goes after a guy for a clean hit earlier in the game and then he pulls this shit. Someone needs to end his existence. Spineless coward.

[lightsout38]

too bad he is making millions and u are at home on your little computer trying to be an internet gangster

[ndvfdff33]

Good for him. It still doesn't change the fact he is a spineless coward. I know there are more people than me who wouldn't mind not having to watch that clown play.

Internet gangster?? Hardly. Just stating my opinion. Your not going to get anywhere with me so you should just run along ok.

[carmie1818]

Wtf is an "Internet gangster"? Last time I checked this was a public forum, where you could voice your opinion. Mine happens to be the same as yours, Avery is a complete asshole. Ask his teammates, they will agree.

[ndvfdff33]

I was wondering the same thing. Saying people wouldn't mind not having to watch that garbage player is hardly trying to be an internet gangster. I think buddy has a secret love for Avery and was just pissed people were saying negative stuff about him.

[lightsout38]

i already got somewhere. if he was a spineless coward he wouldnt be starting fights all the time...wtf

[ndvfdff33]

All the time?? He fights when it's good for him and if it's someone he wants to fight. Sorry champ but this is one guy you will never change my opinion of.

By the way. Where did you get?? You say you already got somewhere.

[hockeyplayer14]

arent you just on your little computer too
