HA, I like how they act like this is such a cheapshot. The announcers are stupid as fuck. Clearly he didn't even hit him that hard first off. Yeah give him a two minute but don't say that THAT hit was a 5 and a game. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
Please, there was nothing gutless or brutal about this at all. He got his stick up a bit high and cross checked him into the throat. He acted like he was dead at first and then as soon as Backes goes off he pops up and skates to the bench. "Deliberate intent to injure" "Brutal" "Gutless".
The Columbus announcers are literally the worst in professional sports and it's disgusting how they act while on the air. They also said, "that was right after he hit Nash" is no one allowed to hit poor Ricky?
david backes, what an idiot! the puck is not even close to him and he cross-checks a guy who is turning and can't see him. so stupid, he also proved that at the olympics.
"This was a gutless play if you ask me.." Nope, nobody asked you moron. What I'd like to see is Gordie Howe come up in that booth and lay a trademark hit on your behind and see if you still think it's gutless.
This is hockey..not Stars on Ice. If you can't take the hit, retire.
...and please Columbus, I know you want homers in the booth but make them educated homers please...
God Columbus Anouncers Do not know the game of hockey. It was self Defense. If a guy is coming at you what are you gonna do just let him skate ino you. if he din have a stick in his hand he'd be fine.
alright so the puck wasnt really near either of them, and it kinda looked like huselius was skating towards backes like he was gonna try something so backes just stuck his arms up and caught him in the face, either way backes took car of nash, huselius, and tyutin all in one play.
You guys bug the shit out of me. Jeff Rimer and Danny Gare are paid to side with the Blue Jackets. Why don't you guys listen to the Red Wings announcers (oh wait, you're probably all Red Wings fans and are too busy bragging about your 18 straight playoff berths to care). Those fuckers are truly annoying. Rimer and Gare are awesome.
dude I agree. The Blue Jackets have by far the worst announcers in the nhl. They were flipping their shit when Oshie rocked nash a couple of weekes ago, which was a perfectly clean hit. How did those two bozos get hired?
the Jackets commentators can be a bit annoying sometimes, but I think that the Bruins, by FAR have the worst announcers in the NHL. No question about it. THOSE two guys are sickening.
this was a dumb play, but the blue jackets announcers make it sound twenty times worse....they're definitely the worst i've heard...except for maybe the french announcers on RDS.
Its self defense by backes, its natrual to but your hands up. The columbus announcers wine about everything that isn't their way. Bunch of pricks if you ask me
cross check to the face? questionable. intentional? probably not. without wearing a full face mask tho this stuff WILL happen from time to time. i'm not sayin that they should be wearing full masks because, i mean come on, this is the nhl... players just have to be aware that it will happen every once in a while... and i also have to say i'm a HUGE backes fan!!!
Dude, the first 6 words gives it away, a cross check to the face doesn't "happen" from time to time. If it would, the teams would need 70+ player rosters to keep up with injuries... The tackle was bad and you know it.
how is it a cross check. yeah, i could understand a high sticking call, but for the love of pete, he looked up, a guy was in his face, he put his stick up to protect himself and huselius flopped. it's amazing that as soon as he was given the game, he got up and went to the bench. if any of you think that this is a dirty play then you either don't know anything, or you are a columbus homer and you refuse to see what really happened.
I think it is unfortunate Husselius was hit but if you watch the video it looked like he was coming in to hit Backes, and Backes turned around and defended himself. I mean what are you going to do if somebody's coming in at full speed at you, you turn and put your hands up to defend yourself. Backes is a grinder and plays rough and hits people. Husselius is not and he should not have been so unprepared for a hit from Backes, intentional or not. It's hockey..
Another thing I noticed is the doucebag Columbus annoucer saying "and this was just seconds after he hit Nash on the double team". What a puss. I guess Nash is that big of pussy himself that he is untouchable. That is what is wrong with hockey is pussy markets like yours that probably frown on the fighting and the rough play. It's hockey!!! If you don't like it, play soccer then you pussies!!!!!!
Huselius got crosschecked in the face...where's the acting there, moron? And Tyutin ISN'T a fighter. He was just trying to stick up for his teammate. What a tool you are.
If by crosscheck, you mean light shove with no follow-through, then yes, I suppose he was crosschecked. Huselius should have been able to finish what he started.
Another thing is, you Columbus fucktards obviously don't remember the days before this pussy version of the NHL. All you know of is the pansie ass style Bett(ASSFACE)man has fed you. Trying to make the game more pleasent for families to sit and watch on TV? I grew up watching the old style of play and I turned out alright. I have the college degree to prove it.
They both ran into each other and bam. Backes shouldn't of had his stick up at his shoulders but, Huselius just kind of ran himself right into Backes stick. A natural reaction by Backes to push his stick forward. If something is coming towards you, put up the road block. BTW, Bakes would kick Boll's ass. Obviously you haven't seen him fight many times.
That american gave a ridiculously dirty cross check then a guy half of the american's size stood up for his teammate it wasn't the Russian's fault that the dirty ass american player was twice his size.
He tapped him! AND, what is with you and all the nationality BS. I didn't even think of that until you mentioned it... Who cares if the American hits a Russian, Czech, Swede, Slav, Canadian, or a Fin? To the same effect who cares if it was a Russian doing the hitting? Bottomline it should have been a 4 min. penalty, tops.
Only thing I can add, the people are calling Backes a pussy and such things, are the retards who thought Salmella from the USA vs Finland game didn't deserved to get his ass handed to him by Backes.
Or one of your precious players was beaten in a fight.
Did Backes deserve the 5 minute major? SURE. The game misconduct? No way.
I would call it a cheap hit...had Backes moved towards Huselius. Instead, it was the other way around. Backes just brought him arms up and Huselius went down like he was legitimately hurt.
these announcers are homers, if the league reviews this and Backes gets time off from it, I will lose all faith in hockey.
You don't skate right up into a guys face without expecting something physical, especially at a high rate of speed. It's called SELF DEFENSE or self preservation. Look it up if you don't understand it.
The "fight" that ensued after the "hit" was a pile of dung.
I agree with you. These fucktards calling it a intentional crosscheck, have neither played or watched hockey enough to know of the knee jerk reaction of protecting yourself. If some douche is coming towards you, you put your hands, stick, up to protect yourself. Thats what is looked like Backes intent was here. Besides. It is 6:45 central time on the Monday after the hit and, surprise surprise, no word of a suspension yet. Because there isn't going to be one.
Go fuck yourself, Backes is the pussy. Hes lucky Boll didnt play cause hed get fucked up. Cmon, Tyutin isnt a fighter but hes got to stick up for his teammates.
Backes will kick his ass, and the guy was a dumnbass for headbutting the stick. Backes should of gotten that pentaly but get the 5 minute and kicked out? HELL NO,should of been 4 minutes at most
True, but what can the ref do? Take it back? The problem is, everyone's calling for tougher calls on checks to the head/neck area. This is the only reason he got a major.
Baceks is a disgrace for the game, just like the Blues. What the hell is he doing in NHL anyway? Cant play cant fight, down to minors and lets hope the Blues dont make the playoffs again...
HA, I like how they act like this is such a cheapshot. The announcers are stupid as fuck. Clearly he didn't even hit him that hard first off. Yeah give him a two minute but don't say that THAT hit was a 5 and a game. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
