Mike Richards hit on Petrovicky

[micfiends]

hahah does petro even play anymore?

[mrsnizz20XL]

he almost did backflip! holy shit

[gogie19]

thats the same hit he had on booth this year lmao richards is unreal! he's going to light up for team canada as well!

[crosbykid44]

steemed

[ONE1pjw1bitch]

thats a beauty

[Metalmalitia141]

very similar to the David Booth hit. Clean hit. people just need to keep their heads up....

[joyfulvulture]

@Metalmalitia141

"very similar to the David Booth hit"

actually its not similar at all you blind retard. petrovicky is skating right towards richards, and its clearly his fault for not seeing him.

booth though, he was skating towards the goal and richards came from behind then to the side. booth looked at his pass a bit but before the hit he was looking straight ahead and didnt even flinch. he never saw him just like savard never saw cooke even though he was looking straight ahead too.

[llorracs93s10]

dude wat are you talking about, he takes his helmet off to fight.

[harvey20c]

I'd respect Mike Richards a lot more if he took the visor off. He'd take a lot more free punches to the face if he did, his visor is his security blanket. Until then, I disagree with him being the "definition of canadian Hockey"

[Gooey26]

hahaha

[NewfoundlandLacrosse]

Yeah, he wears a visor because he's worried about a punch to the face, not getting a stick to the eye and losing his vision for the rest of his life.

Thanks for clearing that up.

[kevinhops317]

LMAO

[JimB667]

You do realize all of junior hockey in Canada demands that players wear visors right.

[flyers5342]

everybody wears visors nowadays. its all about safety now. theres only a few players that dont wear visors now

[dudeman52993]

I don't think you would want to lose and eye do to a stray puck or a stick slashing your eye in a tangle in the boards for the puck. You probably don't play or even have friends that play hockey. It was a clean hit. Back checking out of the blue line.

[k1lladelph1a]

everytime he fights he takes his helmet off unless he gets jumped on

[SportsBoy971]

ummmmmmmmmmmmm ooooooouch

[hi5lo2]

Don't they teach you that when you're 12? Keep your damn head up.

[ducetin]

there was nothing wrong with that hit, the guy had his head down what do you expect? It's the top level of the game, he should no better.

[Bundashit]

That's what you get for having your head down. Obviously he never watched Grapes growing up :)

[discjocky44]

That was a charge he left his feet

[TheT4xid3rmist]

He may have has his head down but Richards was still head hunting. Why do they even have a charging penalty if they never enforce it?

[PhuckFilly63]

man, richards sure does love hitting guys that dont see him comin, doesn't he? i mean hes really good at layin into guys from their blind sides.

[jeepwrang3]

Same exact hit tonight against Booth. long live the GAWD

[flyers4life123]

mike richards fans! check out my richards tribute on my channel!

[Richardsx18]

Nice vid

[Paulwizziana]

Mike Richards is the definition of canadia hockey.

[gpappas69]

Richards is the best captain in the league. he hits he fights he scores he makes great plays..outstanding player IMO

$10 sports picks and free plays

hot sports plays (.) com

[flyersfan345]

Richards is the best captain in the league. He sticks up for the team defends like a defenseman and scores the way he is supposed to. He is so underrated because he can do anything.

[HookInMouth999]

DAAMMMMNNNNN!!!! I remember that game. Richards is a beast. Hes just gonna get better and stronger as time goes on..... Cant wait for 09-10 season baby! Flyers are going all the way led by Mike Richards!!!

[godamo10]

oooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhh­h

[viper850hp]

thats what you call running into a clothes line

[Philly4Life1818]

does he shatter petrovicky's face shield?

[mlcharris99]

That hit knocked Peto all the way to Russia(Dinamo Riga),lol,

[MrFlyersfan]

One of the cleanest hits I've ever seen that had that big of an impact. Richards is train! Remember, the hit on Poti? I don't know what's better, this or the one on Poti.

[Metalmalitia141]

this one deff......

[opinukinook]

wow he slid far

[Imthemastermind007]

[BomberMan362]

Offsides or not, Richards makes him pay.

[sanchetti75]

I'm a Richards fan and I somewhat feel bad for the other fella there haha, he got pasted!

[mininick0001]

daaaamn!

[TwistedMetal32]

His hit tonight was almost as bone crushing. Top5 player in the league today imo. GO FLYERS. (he hit someone on the Caps I forget who it was lol)

[rjmcleod24]

[bags258]

yea im a caps fan, it was a clean hit. and god how i want mike richards 2 b a cap, in my mind hes the in the top 3 of best all around players in the NHL him malkin and datsyuk

[bags258]

yea dude, richards is just a monster, and trust me i wish he was a cap, there aren't enough great players in the game today like richards

[greenchef6]

[1989dodgeW150]

Nice hit Ritchie, keep up the good work!

[titetouffe27]

outch

[Feubcaky]

If you pause it just as it starts....at one second in...you can see mike leaning down and leading with the shoulder...this is in NO way an elbow OR a dirty hit, it was straight shoulder all the way...after contact mikes arm comes up fast cause as you can see, he lost his balance a bit and was trying to keep it..anyone who thinks this was dirty obviously doesnt know hockey or is just simply a flyers hater who is trying to start shit, and its fine to hate the flyers,but a clean hit is a clean hit.

[exterio21]

wow great hit!

[ANALDAMUS]

ha ..thats awsum

[rrmoviesfan]

The Best good-looking hit ever!!!! lool... My MAN Richards is all over the place...

[BigSchwetz]

HAHA HUGEEEE

[OriginalKinkster]

yea thats not an elbow boss. great hit though.

[Feubcaky]

as soon as it starts pause it at 1 second....you can see mike leaning down leading with his shoulder...after contact he comes up to keep his balance which makes it look like he elbowed him but he didnt

[corryszam]

Ok rule number 1 in hockey KEEP YOUR HEAD UP!!! They teach you this when you are 5 years old!!!

[philadelphiaflyers48]

[proctor2210]

Keep your head up and you won't lose it!Mike Richards is part of the NHL revolution!

[emdutcher]

i love Richie!

[susdlnskafw]

that was brutal - but it certainly wasn't a dirty hit. Richards is an honest player; I don't think anyone has accused him of being dirty

[TriCounty33]

that was clean whoever thinks that was dirty learn some hockey.. my favorite player and check ever

[Lordofmette]

drilled!!!

nothing dirty about it, that's what happens when you get your head down

[brettgot405]

hell yah go big mike!!

[brettgot405]

Thats mzy man richards! i even went 2 nhiz hockey camp so i no that he has heart and determaination!

[Korbyn11]

Mike Richards, born and raised in Kenora Ontario!

WOAH!

[iggyfan12]

Hell yeah, reppin' K-Town!

[lmaccormack5555]

yaaahh k-town boiii

[ghollett]

lil bit of an elbow but all round an excellent hit

[UnforbideN]

hell yes richards!!!!!!!!!!

[Scarecrowman2795]

If you call that an elbow you should never try to play or watch hockey again. The only thing remotely dirty is it's the same time as the whistle. You can't blame him for that, because you play till the whistle and what if the play was on sides, you can't just let him pass like that. But NO ELBOW what so ever. That kind of reminds me of Scott Stevens on Lindross

[HockeyCardFanatic]

holy fuck richards

[GODgne]

Good solid hit. Arms and elbows in, lead with the shoulder. Richards is FLYERS hockey.

[pp2211]

RAILED!!!!

[CheesyJon777]

petro just got killed. eword of advise: in hockey, do not put your head down

[TheMrRichard]

"What mean by that is..." YOU GOT KNOCKED THE FUCK OUT!!

[turanIII]

Simply beautyfull... :D

[JFlyJr91]

thats why the pens have laraque instead of petrovicky in the lineup

[TheNaTuRa1]

he went flying.... FUCK THE FLYERS

[Eaglezfan5]

OWNED BY RICHARDS!!!!!

[ellejawn]

*pwned ;)

[keeyaaw]

this might be the greatest hit I've ever seen simply by the fact that he glides about 15 feet after the hit.

[interista777]

wowa wiwa!!!

[nis350ztt]

Elbowing. Dirty hit.

[pandemicgamer]

lol ok?

[TheMrRichard]

Actually, if you look at most hits most guys tuck their forearm at their ribcage thus leaving the elbow semi-exposed, but his elbow isn't what caught him. It was the back of his upper arm.

[mbailey010]

its a clean hit u stupid fuck. jeez

[shadyltd85]

elbowing haha shut the fuck up u dumbass

[mrinocar]

ur a douche and u dont know how to tell it was clean

[TheMrRichard]

Clean hit, he used his upper arm.

[gunna34]

Still pwnt.

[shaughn15]

that's why he dropped his shoulder right?

[EzFlyers10]

lol. elbowing.

[Deutschland1984]

Thats petrovicky next game vs the leafs.

[ionpro1592]

wowowow!!! whit a fuck'n hit. Richards is da man

[isherally]

Head up Bitch.

[cfish99]

[hoppybunnycheeks99]

[daltz25]

that was not a fuckin dirty hit u retards who think it is. I deffinatly agree with shorty

[bobknot131]

that's what he gets. sholud've kept his head up jack ass

[Tobyandgeorge]

Holy shit!

[boygenius88]

OUCH!!!!

[Lattanzio57]

Richards is a fucking warrior. It's gonna be fun watching this guy develop into the next Mike Peca.

[hoppybunnycheeks99]

omg that was not an elbow that was just a great hit unreal that dude was screwed up

[Shorty10969]

lol turn ur volume up dude, even the announcer said it. it happens at the same type. deff was not an elbow either, just the aftermath of richards LOOKs like one. it was a shoulder hit that slid to his elbow by the time he already laid em out

[InFlames666Rule]

thats fuckign elbow and after whisle good but dirty

[rraff71]

AWESOME.......CHECK OUT NHL RECORD FIGHT.......www.myspace.com/rr­aff71

[sonstesleezy]

dude everybody has seen ur fucking video u plug it on every single video that has anything to do with hockey, its sweet we get it

[XxChaos89xX]

ahahahahah jiggles complains about it bein an elbow when richards arm is straight so the elbow wouldnt do much and the hit on umberger isnt dirty? CAMPBELL FUCKING JUMPED TO GET LEVERAGE ON UMBERGER

[Shorty10969]

lol , the proof is there

[sageary93]

hit of the year... that was rediculous

ok the first rule u learn as a hockey player

'always keep ur head up'

yea kids, ur coach isnt lying

[jonnyrockets26]

yeah man thats huge, it seems dirty but it really isnt cause its his shoulder but at the end he kida comes up but that might just be momentum.

someone post the whole thing

[SuperColossal33]

your first rule in learning how to check in pewee keep your fucking arm against your side when you goto hit somoene.

[jiggles587]

that was such a fukin elbow, he should have gotten the gate for that hit. Big hit, but dirty

[niittygritty]

Corection: Shoulder, not elbow. Learn your body parts.

[ledzeppelin7337]

i was at that game! this is a good hit. even tho it was on my favorite team, u have to give credit where credit is due. but ive seen better hits out there, but this is a good one

[Shorty10969]

Fuck yea, i love that hit, listen to the sound it makes! fuck the hit on Umberger, tha Richards one totally beats it

[badger120]

i agree

[kyoung0243]

One of the greatest hits ever.
