Al MacInnis Breaks the Boards

[Nhl9493]

Turek's asking why the heck is Al shooting that hard in a warm up anyways?

[opinder999]

Good old Lumber



[LalalalaLaFontaine]

Al > Chara

[JohnKulo]

I wouldn't want to be in front of good ol' Al. His slapshot even broke Thibault's finger!

[ninjaofice101]

@JohnKulo Thibault's finger? He also Broke one of his own goalies cups popping one of his testicales

[JohnKulo]

@ninjaofice101 Oh yeah, it was Rich Parent, ruptured testicle.. that had to be fucking painful! Also cracked Mike Liut's mask and broke Osgood's hand. He's a fucking beast!

[Andragon90]

Now imagine if he played with the tough sticks they play with now... heads would be rolling!

[Wedigar]

@Andragon90 Yeah, Macinnis or Iafrate would rip it hard with today's sticks. Iafrate was hitting 105 with those old sticks that used to break all the time and had no flex.

[arkham335]

And that was with a wooden stick.

[DinoVelvet1971]

now that is the true king of the hardest shot...if they were to measure the shots today like they did back then...and by that I mean not to have the players take a run at the puck first, then the true king of the hardest shot would come out.

MacInnis' motto - "Power over Placement"

[VeinerSnitzle]

MacInnis played 23 NHL seasons. He was known and feared for consistently delivering the NHL’s hardest slapshot at close to 100 mph. Apparently he didn’t ease up too much against his own teammates, either. With the St. Louis Blues, MacInnis unleashed a drive that hit goalie Rich Parent in precisely the wrong place during the warm-up prior to a game versus Edmonton. Parent underwent emergency surgery after suffering a “scrotal contusion and ruptured testicle.” He missed 11 games.

American Airlines hired Al MacInnis.

[Thewinnipegboy]

lol damn i hate that logo *BAMM* FINALLY

[Todd619fp]

that was with a wooden stick too! Just imagine if he played today!

[VeinerSnitzle]

@Todd619fp Al MacInnis could of used other types of sticks when he did play but he preferred all wood sticks. Sherwood if I remember correctly

[keetlover]

@VeinerSnitzle i have a crappy sherwood one it needs to be taped.

[Carlijud14]

home town representing!!:)

[justsomedude777]

That mask wont save you

[BubblingSyphilisSund]

My favorite part is that they're not using a powerdrill to screw the board in. Just twisting away frantically by hand.

[TheWitchOvAgnesi]

@BubblingSyphilisSund Well, it looks like they could only afford one drill (far end). But yeah, the screwdrivers are hilarious.

[EthanTheGoalie]

I want to see if Chara could do this... I bet he could.

[marc25canucks]

they had to but W and half of the e on the Western Bell thing

[zymuur]

@marc25canucks Great analysis, Einstein. But you forgot to mention the fact that it is Southwestern Bell, not Western Bell. And if you look at the end, it seems as if it's one big sheet of logo they apply not just the letters.

[TheJATM]

i think this was the 99-00 season. they didnt wear the 2000 patches in the 2000-2001 season.

[19PittSteelers33]

@AftComet oh you're a man

[playshockey14]

@19PittSteelers33 sorry your a girl so you dont know

[MCote123]

Good Cape Breton boy right there! Way to represent us Capers Al!

[AftComet]

That's with a wooden stick kids. Not the composite shit you use today.

[silfocus84]

@AftComet which makes it more impressive. he had speed on his shot and it was a heavy shot. composite sticks mostly have whip and give you speed no matter who you are, but only the best with cannons can put power into it. Al MacInnis with a composite stick... that might be deadly and illegal...

[playshockey14]

real men use duct tape

[OldTimeHockeyLucic]

didnt he rupture a goalies a testicle also?

[24Maxime24]

First dislike :D

[hoff137]

@24Maxime24 you're cool

[kabookiejoe]

and he used a real stick.. not that fake composite shit

[Scema12]

@kabookiejoe sigh, another "boohooo hoo, new hockey is stupid" quote

[kabookiejoe]

@Scema12  ya, i hate the new nhl..and everything with it... clearly what i said... retard.

[kobeeboy77]

You see them putting the company's logo back on at the end of the video??? Man are we in an age of 'money talks' or what???

[AEMoreira81]

At the time of this video, MacInnis was already in his late 30s---even at 39, MacInnis' slap shot was scary!

[BlueBlazer89]

macinnis and cro cop look the same

[204sparky]

@BlueBlazer89 Backhand hospital Slapshot Cemetary.

[BlueBlazer89]

@204sparky haha

[LoowheezeBreeze]

How many guys does it take to screw on a piece of hockey board?

Apparently it takes at least 17 of them when there's no drill...

[Greedypro123]

@LoowheezeBreeze Lol no shit eh.

[VeinerSnitzle]

@LoowheezeBreeze They had to take turns when their hands got sore lol

[alphadude159]

hey could u upload like classic games on youtube cuz i dont c many on this website

[aarondogman97]

I wonder if the company of the broken board add complained?

[hucz]

@aarondogman97 They reapplied the Southwest Airlines logo with a puck-scuff free version. I'm sure they loved it.

[quincy7397]

@hucz its funny cause its not a southwest airlines logo

[Maryland446]

@hucz No... it was for Southwestern Bell

[totallybiasedopinion]

@hucz It was southwestern bell

[hucz]

@totallybiasedopinion

Ahh, yes indeed. I'm not very familiar with American company logos, and wasn't really paying close attention :p

[icejetsrok]

@aarondogman97

hahaahhahahahahaahah! PROBABLY!@ THEY WERE PROBABLY DISAPOINTED AAAAAAAAAAAA

[4jane2man0]

@aarondogman97 did you not watch the whole video?

[scuba3steve3]
