[carrollshelby222]

jaroslov halak ist czech lol... stupid reporters -.-"

[AirRaider56]

I would hit my goalie in the head too even though im the starting goalie for my high school team i would do that ONLY if he kept letting in goals

[gindai94]

the stupid media and some of u guyz are making so much out of this little things...not like he meant to do it...he apologized and vokoun accepted it...and what cud he have done when he hit him...sit there and cry??? did u guyz even look at how bad he felt when he was on the bench???

[IbleedblueSTLBLUES]

who said they want him to sit there and cry? but have a little respect for your teammates, he shouldnt have even swung his stick that close hit the ground if your mad not close to the guy that saves your ass.

[ishmale88]

he looks at him n skates away wata dick

[1StepAbove]

He did it on purpose

[hotcoco549]

Does anyone know what injury he faced? Just concust?

[TheMadMoravian]

@hotcoco549 Lacerated ear, I don't think he had a concussion

[TresUp]

if you look at his head position, his eyes are looking at the pole... with the velocity on that swing, it didn't even slow down when he hit him in the head or else he would have felt it. Accident..

[arianaalioth]

he certainly looks like he's looking in the goalies direction!!!!!

[boomer1981abc]

kypreos is right ballard didn't realize he got him. he was just mad at himself for his own poor play and like a lot of players was trying to vent by smashing his stick on the net. you can see he isnt really paying attention to vokoun as he skates off. it almost looks like vokoun is sitting back about to roll over to get back onto his feet as ballard starts to skate off.

as for the two morons who hijacked this thread with their e-battle; don't you have anything better to do with your time?

[linksausage666]

no we don't . good question though, captain obvious

[gareybusey666]

i hijacked a thread back in 2001 and flew it into a couple well known buildings in NYC......would you consider that time well spent?....or this other time i flew a plane (my penis) into pearl harbor (your moms gaping pussy)....now THAT was time well spent for sure

[linksausage666]

i wish that builing fell on you, you wicked witch with a gaping pussy.

[GoingFullGamer]

i'm totally on board with you bro I don't know why people are putting thumbs down on you probably cause what you said is completely true.

[hiiya30]

poor vokoun

[1StepAbove]

I believe he hit him on purpose because the golie was slacking

[hockey366]

accidnets happen, poor vokoun though

[avaguiar]

0:09 seconds..Ballard looks at Vokoun going down in pain and doesn't do anything...looks very intentional

Ballard you'll pay the price buddy don't worry

[ameilsa2]

come on can you honestly say he did this on purpose? nobody does that on purpose to their own teamate, this is completely accidental, he just didnt realize he hit him

[Bassoonplayer29]

i cant beleive he did that i mean really!!!??

he used 2 b 1 of my fav players but now he isnt

[dvferrara]

i dont think its even possible for the nhl to suspend somebody for hitting their own teammate. plus this was an accident and it is clearly not what he intended to do. these guys are just sooo dumb

[SeexyyAmbeer]

well i really want to chat i have pics too so ..

[dave1927p]

Ken Campbell from The Hockey News and Darren Dreger from TSN are two idiots calling for a suspension. Fucking ridiculous...

[Mul7ese]

no dave, you are a fucking idiot. rage is used in hockey to take the opposing teams player on a hot streak out of the game by clocking him in the teeth, NOT to injure your own goalie on a stupid little bitch fit.

[TheStrawbeery]

if and i say if he did this on purpose the he should be kicked out of the league period. if it was accidental then minor punishment should be a fine or a game suspension

[PJRABBITOH]

I dont think he can argue "accidental" with that video, he lines him up and nails him while he's looking the other way.

[TheStrawbeery]

yeah that's a shame pjrabbitoh it really is a shame i hope the goalie is ok this type of behavior is unexceptable

[SithLordDarthSidious]

Tragic accident. Temper tantrums never result in anything good. The coach should impose a big fine and let's just move on. The league will probably step in and try to impose some kind of disciplinary action in another failed attempt to make the NHL look good.

[IvanKala]

And this three bastards are laughing. What a stupid people.

[gareybusey666]

what a stupid ivan

[fgall]

shut up

[linksausage666]

@fgall no...you shut up

[fgall]

lol linksausage666 idiot

[wrinkleypp]

son of a bitch

[Novinte]

was it a goal? what was he angry about?

[femiddel]

idiot

[GhostWalker40]

Hey, there's this new thing, called High Definition. look into it

[Nuttzonyerchin]

u meen to tell me he didnt feel his stick hit his goalie THEN the post ? im sure he did . when u got both hands at the top of the stick doing a happy gilmore ur gonna feel it when u smoke the goalie in the head.

[digiprez77]

If I was the goalie I would have slashed him back with my big ass goalie stick.

[XblisterXexistX]

Wut a dumb piece a shit!!

[MegaManZeroV1]

What a dumb ass SMH.

[the730dips]

what a douche

[kickapoo42]

lol, ballard was like Hey, if you let another shitty goal in, im gonna knock you right.

[TomasVokounGoalie]

I love Vokoun but seriously Keith Ballard, come on! You don't have to get all mad and try to break your stick. Sheesh. I think he should give Vokoun a get well card and should be out for atleast 1 game even though he didn't mean to.

[MOBROOKS]

HE CLEARLY DID IT ON PURPOSE!

[linksausage666]

i'm also hoping that ballard did it because vokoun is a lazy fatass. shape up bitch or get your fatass knocked out. i hate fatties

[WhamValdez]

You sound fat.

[linksausage666]

the goalie deserved it. i want to see more shit like that going on. your team mate fucks up... let him know by hitting the asshole in the head.

[beermoose62]

ls666, you rox...we need to get you your own sports show!

[TheStrawbeery]

wow violence is ok teach the youth that if someone on your team falls short hit them in the head wow i hope you don't have kids

[linksausage666]

I have a son and i hope he ends up on a hockey team with your kid, in some weird twist of fate, and your kid is the goalie and your kid fucks up and gets hit in the face by my son because you're retarded and didn't teach your kid how to play sports right....stupid bitch. bad things should happen to you

[TheStrawbeery]

if feel sorry for your son. with a father like your name666 hope he dosen't  wind up like a loser like you whoe teaches violence is acceptable behavior.losing is part of life. imperfection is a part of life but the again what do you know your perfect right?

[gareybusey666]

i feel sorry for your kids, they have a parent who can't even fucking spell or use correct grammar so they have to grow up receiving constant ridicule from their peers cause their parent is a fucking certified, brain dead, retard...then when they are older they resent you for spending their entire childhood doing nothing but drooling on yourself and typing nearly incoherent messages to people on the internet.

[TheStrawbeery]

there you go. let out that anger get out that rage. you know it will help to seek anger managment.i can see how angry you are. must of got picked on a lot. then you grow up hating people for no reason. hurling insults like your 4 years old wow i feel sorry you

[linksausage666]

don't be sorry, baby. it's ok. i'm good to go

[linksausage666]

youre right strawbeery, losing is a part of life. so is humor, which is what i was going for. it was a joke and youre a retard for assuming i was serious. violence is only acceptable when dealing with disease spreading whores like you. praise jesus, fucker

[estidevraimale]

you see this more and more these days. fucking kids who are still immature and throw hissy fits when shit goes bad. what does that do, breaking your stick?? it draws even more attention that you fucked up and also makes you look like a baby.

[hfxscotsman33]

what gets me is he didn't even stick around to see if he was okay.. or after he noticed he was hurt, you don't see him back on the ice to make sure Vokoun is okay.. that to me is a coward

[Erated78]

A-N-G-E-R M-A-N-A-G-E-M-E-N-T is written all over this one.

[22coup22]

fucking idiot. that dumb motha fucker saw he hit his own goalie, didnt know what to do so he decided to continue to break his stick pretending he didnt know what was going on. very unfortunate.

[GJboyz]

thats exactly what i thought....he knew he hit him...but hit the post to make it look like he didnt mean to.......golies are pritty tough players...everyone thinks there not cuz there paded more, but they actualy are....golies desierve a lot of credit, and are one of the best players, think about it if a goilie wasnt there, how meny shots would get through!....thats why at the end of games, the players always line up and congragulate the golie.

[GJboyz]

also thats why alot of fights happen when oposite players just run into the golie, players are sensitive about that...for good reason.....you dont mess with the golie.......................so any way im agreeing with you on that , 22coup22

[jcoles1226]

stupid mother fucker , that hockey club is a joke

[emmettsdemocrew]

what a dumb ass hahahahahaahah

[sniperstar]

Vokoun most likely has a concussion. i can see him missing 2 -3 weeks unless it's worst then i think it is.

[imsocuteable]

Wow. What a little bitch thing to do. I think he takes the crown from Tiger Woods' wife.

[WanderingGoat]

Obviously it was an accident, but that doesn't figure into this. He has to control himself - he went off and injured his own goalie because of that selfish tantrum.

[micfiends]

i would bench him u gotta sit a guy down for that and have a talk to him

[3lliot21]

cmon ballard, you gotta keep your temper. i know you're dissapointed but, as ZapruderJr said, if you want to swing your stick in frustration, at least look where you're swinging it.

[v2engine]

I think the second swing was because he saw he hit Vokoun and was angry about it

[topherbear]

no really? thanks man! thats no fucking reason to swing a second time, AND skate away..he looked like a child the second that kovalchuk was gone by him-swatting at him like a bug and then his goalie as well all because of bad defense and a TANTRUM in result.

bitch.

[b0n3sx2]

lol feel sorry for Vokoun but Ballard's is in a bad position now lol. Being the person that injuried your own goalie lol

[4percolator20]

obviously an accident. he didn't even know he hit him. hope vokoun is alright

[ZapruderJr]

Man, I feel for Florida, that sucks.

Look before you swing I suppose...

[Hannoi]

The 2nd swing is really weird.

Maybe he thought that he DID hit the post and not Vokoun?

Well, poor guys, both of them.

[a6u5e]

What an idiot!
