Ian Laperriere: Comedian, Fighter, Aggitator

[TheKingsley90]

@lamboemp Yeah Will see how you gonna react when i will snap the puck right to you your fucking shitty face! Never talk like That again or that will not be a puck who gonna blow up your fucking face piece of shit !

[MrJuha82]

He was agitator because he was pitbull type of player IMO, hits after hits, always goes under opponents skin. Bad fighter, always lost but gave his all usually.

[utleychase7]

On the scal from 1 to Lappy, tough are you?

[CrunkLB303]

i know you're slow, but im slower than you!

[bleh534]

Ian Laperriere is a fucking champion. Im not a La Kings Fan but if he still played I would never miss a game.

[killerskillet]

Lappy is the goddamn GREATEST.

[DUPioneerHockeyFan]

I love his comment to Shanahan at 5:09

[mgljimcmgl]

Good footage and video, great to watch this videos on Youtube

[streetLAkings]

enjoy him Flyers fans i know i did for 8 years here is Los Angeles every team in the league would love a guy like Lappy who plays balls to the wall every shift

[Dallasblows20]

@streetLAkings yea its a shame though, he has post concussion symptoms and may be done for his career. As a flyers fan, i think he is way too cool to risk further injury (probably brain damage). I love watching the guy play but fear for his health, he even has a kid.

[streetLAkings]

@Dallasblows20 yeah he has a couple kids i really hope hes not done for his career he had some concussion problems during his time with the Kings also and i think some with the Av's as well...even last season with the Flyers id like to see him win a Stanley Cup i dont care with who i cant think of a player more deserving in the league of a Cup than him

[MrJuha82]

Lappy is tough!

[coloradoking1001]

@sanchetti75 Lappy has class, Avery doesn't I have met lappy in person and he's the nicest guy you'll meet yet Avery is a complete douche

[SteveO1887]

this guy gives me chills, he's not human from all these beatings he's taken and still competes so hard

[ericssson]

he's punch-drunk

[Quebecxlove]

Wow it's sad to see that Avery played @ L.A with Lappy and he hasn't learn anything from him, no class, no love for the game. Anyways thumbs up to a big warrior like lappy who never hesitates to throw himself in front of a puck to save a goal for his team. Btw nice vid right there, rock on!

[iloveheartyloaf]

hahahah @ 5:32 "what are you laughing at?"

[SpraxIAKS]

And now he's took two pucks to the face. They're just more battle scares but he really should invest in a visor.

[Jima2]

im so glad he is at the flyers.

I hope he gets back out on the ice soon

[leafsrule16]

i lol'ed at him saying ' you wanna go? i think not, i know your game'.

[chrism1092]

@leafsrule16 thats by far the best part

[TheDrLivingston]

"What the fuck? I know you're slow, but... I'm slower than you." Hahaha, glad to have him on the Flyers.

[THEUPSMAN88]

"great hit big fella." That gave me a laugh

[Einherj1]

Respect.

[stevieboy588]

"you wanna go i dont think so , i know ur game " lol

[killerskillet]

Haha "What are you gonna do?"

[Gugemunga]

"How come you always come after me?" "because your the big guy out there" lol

[sanchetti75]

I didnt realize that Avery played with Lappy in L.A., I dare say that Sean took a page out of Ian's book!

[EmmVeePeePBN]

@sanchetti75

Not really. Avery is a Grade A pussy.

[killerskillet]

yeah dude- Avery is a faggot.

[slvrangel4]

yeah, but in Philly...they don't win...matter of fact the Kings don't do much as far as winning goes...so he does everything to win, but doesn't win.

[TOSucks53684]

Do you realize that the Flyers are one of the most successful franchises in the NHL (in terms of winning %)... I can see where your coming from this year cause they are underachieving like no other, but Philly does win. They're just not playing up to potential this year.

[killerskillet]

I'd like to know exactly what you think has been under-achieving this year. Because I agree than as a Flyers fan, I agree completely. We didn't change that much from last year, and we look terrible. Our goaltending has continued to be less than great, and more importantly our forwards have been short of spectacular, is there anything else you think we could fix? I think Briere costs too much and Gagne is on his last legs.

[MegaJT123]

Definitely miss Ian in Colorado. But I almost think every team should get a chance to meet him. One of the best players to ever live.

[PhSportsFan16]

he took a slap shot off the face today blocking a shot. 50+ stitchs. The guy does anything to win. Love having him in Philly

[sortman94]

i was there. it really amplifies the respect i have for this guy. no matter if you love him or hate him, you have to respect the hell out of him. and how can you hate him? he took a shot to the nose/mouth and came back later in the game. the man is a true warrior

[SMDoom]

After getting those stitches, he came back to period 3. Gotta love that kind of dedication!

[PhSportsFan16]

yup. that the kinda player every team needs. You could tell when he came back he couldnt see the puck well with that full face mask on.

[CrosbySucksGoFlyers]

lost 7 teeth too

[PhSportsFan16]

Now he looks like daniel carcillo haha

[CrosbySucksGoFlyers]

yeah haha

[CrosbySucksGoFlyers]

he looks like powe too

[CrosbySucksGoFlyers]

I just made a video about him.

It's not that good though cause I've never made a video before.

[Bryskens]

eh...where does the Laperriere comedian part come in to the picture?

[xAxiom720x]

man i wish we didnt lose him in colorado.. but, he'll fit in GREAT in philly, we'll still cheer for ya when you come home to play against the Avs. best of luck

[hockeycrewman]

"No sun in Detroit? No sun in Detroit?" lol, im gonna love this guy. go flyers

[ECWnWWF]

Riemsdyk, Nodl, and Kolanos aren't on the current roster .... yet....

and Briere is a Centermen....he hasn't even played a full season at Winger, how can you say he is solid there...where he has played 11 seasons at Center.

He wins 50% of his face offs...that's better than Richards and way better than Carter.

and Carter scored 29 goals the previous season playing on the 3rd line...the only reason he was on the 2nd line last year was Briere got hurt.

[ECWnWWF]

Why would you put Briere at Winger....I know they tried it 2 years ago when they were down 3 games to nothing against Pittsburgh and were desperate....but Briere is a Center....and right now he has the best face-off percentage of all our current centers...

and you cannot split up Briere and Gagne...and if you don't split up Hartnell & Carter than who is going to play with Richards? Carcillo? Cote?

[ECWnWWF]

this guy is a Los Angeles King? Why are the Flyers interested in guys who play for cellar dwellers like the Kings and Coyotes (Carcillo)?

I thought he played his entire career with the Colorado Nordiques....who used to win, but I am wrong...

So the lines will be...

Gagne -Briere-Laperriere

Hartnell-Richards-Giroux

Carcillo-Carter-Asham

Cote-Ross-Powe

[G0Banana]

Why would they put a 46-goal scorer on the 3rd line? Carter will be a top-2 center, Briere will play wing (like when he came back last year), and Laps will be on the 3rd line.

[losermoron87]

No! sorry i hate being an ass but those lines arnt rite, Flyers WILL NOT split Hartnell and Carter up,

Briere will play Lw most likely Laperriere will probably b on the 3rd line, the got him for Pk and faceoffs

[mrzack87]

What about Van Riemsdyk? I'm pretty sure he's signed on for an entry level contract.

[acdcrocksno1]

hes not going to come straight into nhl, if he comes in it will most likely be 3 rd line and carcillo move down to 4th

[AHEAD122]

Why play Briere at wing? Because he is solid there and we have our two top centers. Cote will not be with the Flyers this year, probably the Phantoms or waived. If you were a Flyers fan, you would know all this. And Lappy on first line?? What are you crazy?

Possible lines:

Gagne Richards Briere

Hartnell Carter Giroux

Carcillo Kolanos Lappy

Asham Powe Nodl

Asham

[goldenaxespellcaster]

I don't understand the flyers. In "The New NHL " you need a group of skinny, wimpy, scorers that will never fight or hit. Thats how the pens won it all last year. The Flyers had the most penalty minutes last year and this year is going to be worse. Refs have even commented that they call more penalties for a flyers game because of their reputation...........wrong direction. We Need a Fast Winger that is a lover not a fighter!

[Humpzilla21]

Yeah, and have a fanbase which hates the soft Euro style not show up for games.

Your identity is your identity. If the Anahiem Ducks can play a tough, physical style so can anyone. Philly fans don't want to see a pussy team. Daniel Briere isn't exactly doing the job anyhow....and he's really soft

[FlyersHockeyPride]

@Humpzilla21 Are you bitching about Briere NOW? If so, WTF more do you want, nimrod?

[MrJuha82]

@Humpzilla21 But winning teams needs "soft pussies".

Have to be a good "gamebook" a tactic where own team attacks with active way and controls the puck.

Its surely the best tactic in hockey.

[lamboemp]

@Humpzilla21 your an idiot buddy, briere is hard as fuck, after lappy went down crying like a bitch getting a puck in the face briere showed us what a real man is.

[BroadStreetHockey18]

@lamboemp are you kidding me? DONT YOU EVER FUCKING CALL LAPPY A CRYING BITCH.

[losermoron87]

Holmgren likes the though style and so do most Philly Fans! We like being known for the aggressive, physical, good fore checking, play

Go Flyers, we need a better goalie...emery.....ehhh

[Hockeyevan9992]

If that's what you truly believe, then you are most definitely NOT a Flyers fan.

[kidkong584]

@goldenaxespellcaster

we have the most players because we are a real fucking hardcore hockey team unlike the pussy ass pens. i would rather give up having a stanley cup and be a rough tam than be a pussy ass-penguins copycat and win the cup anyday

[moesizzlak12345]

@goldenaxespellcaster spoken like a true pussy you must be from New Jersey.

[somewhat727]

@goldenaxespellcaster but the little whimpy skinny winger that never fights or hits isnt hockey...thats what you call a pansy that needs to wipe the sand out of his vag...hockey is a physical game and thats one thing that crosby has taken from the game...the beauty of hockey is the physicality...people like myself who play hockey and love the game am hurt that they are pushing to take the physicality out of the game by making the petty bullshit calls

[somewhat727]

@goldenaxespellcaster ...hockey is a game that is supposed to be physical and so if you dont like that...either change your tampon or go watch figure skating

[walack23]

@goldenaxespellcaster ...i trully laugh at you for saying this...2010 playoffs thats all that needs to be said...shame on you for saying they are in the wrong direction.

[deirdrehineline]

@goldenaxespellcaster hows that hindsight look Stanley cup finals last year

[notyoursavior78]

Good to see other Flyers fans happy with the acquisition :) I was the first to post that he was a Flyer in this the comments thread.

[philly4f4]

I think he's a good fit for the flyers. But its become apparent that instead of just bringing in talent, Holmgren is messing with the personality of the team,...with 2 strong locker room guys in Pronger and Lappy.

[sanchetti75]

Perfect fit for the Orange and Black, I'm not quite sure how we're gunna stay out of the box thier year though, we we're in it too much last season without our new 3 tough guys :P

[tymmac007]

Pronger and Lappy will bring some needed grit and feistiness to the Flyers!

[TheGreatElDandy]

Perfect type of player for the Flyers. Welcome to Philly, Ian.

[FlyersFan7]

i like him bu what would be our lines

gagne richards briere

hartnell carter giroux

powe laperriere nodl

asham ross carcillo

we have to get rid of cote and jones and we need to get some 3rd liners im still not satisfied

[totospirits]

gotta keep cote hes our best fighter

[Keyo717]

I agree about Cote I for one am tired of watching him get his ass kicked more often than not. He in not a good fighter.... he was just willing to do it. This is going to be one ill tempered hockey team this year. I'm now looking forward to the season starting.

[Cafasso23]

possibly vanRiemsdyk in the mix too.

[cowboyzsuk81]

Ian Laperriere...welcome to philly..you better be good

[Phillysports46]

GO FLYERS

[notyoursavior78]

Now a Flyer! I'm very happy to have him on the team.

[DEIVION212]

The guy's a legend. Would hate to see the Avs get stupid and get rid of him. Hardest worker on the team, funny, hits hard, beats the crap out of anyone, he's just amazing!

[ABTrow]

I don't know any player who works harder than he does every second he's on the ice.

[Ray32]

Steve Begin former Habs did the same !

[Membleton77]

thanks for this man, lapps a great leader.. videos like this make me gain respect for players..
