Radek Smolenak vs Brad May Oct 8, 2009

[sk8trdudenoob]

Its MAY DAY!

[MisfitPhobia]

May is one of best fighters in the NHL.

[MrJuha82]

May was usually picking his spots though, as his fight card isnt most impressive.

Have to know still he wasnt any heavyweight. CLEAR WIN May but big mismatch.

[xrlmusic]

@dickkid27 May is a fucking pussy

[TheDaleDenton]

@xrlmusic yeah, that's why he won this fight is because of the obvious reason he was a pussy.

[TheDetroitredwings25]

Mann I wish we still had May or McCarty but there to old now....

[ResQ198]

Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!!!!

[hunterman803]

i want to fight someone in my next hockey game now

[AnaheimDucks39]

i thought his name was smolenak, not smoleñak.  im pretty sure they dont speak spanish in the czech republic

[MultiMaxfly]

its very fun smolenak think that break the elmet of may maybe wins

[Curtisstewartt]

Mayday

[RenoZemrak]

may owned him

[m1stersl1t]

Your an idiot Loyalty....why would you even thing 'gangsta' in hockey....try basketball or football.....then you can talk 'gangsta'....loser.....

[RACErocker]

may fucking owned him fright out of the gate!

[machias2009]

May killed em

[1986represent]

the commentators are soo stupid there like oh he left maybe its a cut no his helmet is broken you can clearly see that

[dickkid27]

may owned him

[Kartracer6]

@dickkid27 I would hardly say owned...he had the upper hand on this fight but not by much.  It's close to a draw maybe slight edge to May

[RedWings0014]

some people dont realize how tuff all fighters are i mean brad may aint the biggest guy but like over 100 fights in his carrier thats insaine!

[JaceDrennan]

fighting is a part of the game. And why would anybody fight Brad May? He is awesome. Remember the Sabres in the 90's with May, Ray and Barnaby? Nobody fd with the Sabres then

[hazefan001]

@JaceDrennan everybody fighted barnaby lol but no may!

[JaceDrennan]

Ya Barnaby was the weak link to the trio lol But May's hands are like bricks. He gave Lindros his first concusion with a huge right jab! lol

[hazefan001]

@JaceDrennan yeah, may is a legend in hockey fights, over 100 fights!

[qweryf]

i dont like fight its stupid theatre for stupid fans

[Pistonsfan1311]

its a part of the game if it had no fighting there would be no hockey.

[qweryf]

its part of the game in america only, in europe we want watching real hockey without that comedy, european whos going on hockey is going on sport, american whos going on hockey is going on show

[230Dutch]

@qweryf American Hockey will always be better than European Hockey, one NHL team would win every game against the whole st european league. No Shit talkin just facts. there is a certain level of play that the NHL requires, determination, hard work, and Team work. The NHL is on a different level that cant be touched by the european league. Hockey is a canadian and American Sport, i honestly dnt know why europeans watch it, you have soccer stick with that

[qweryf]

"Hockey is a canadian and American Sport" Man i dont givea shit who invented hockey but i say yes youre right but true is, NHL quality difference exist from age when europeans comes to NHL and gives to north americans lesson from technical skills and clever playing, not only destroying slapshots big hits and fights. Remeber how much nhl legends comes from europe. sory for bad english but i believe youre not retard like american cinematography and understand me.

[flames7312]

then why r u watching it idiot

[Michael7DSeven]

yeah of course youd say that ur channel says your from the Czech Republic, just liek russians, to soft to fight

[qweryf]

yea youre big guys ha? feeling so hard when you are fan of fighting. in czech we want prefer technic hockey not boxing comedies.

[230Dutch]

@qweryf Fights provide the ability to create energy on the ice, when someone gets knocked out the other team has the advantage to take control of the zone, create plays and score goals, there is an element to fights other than the fight itself which your not realizing, fights are also used as retribution for big hits on smaller teammates. in other words retaliation.

[qweryf]

I know that fight can help team to make psychical power, but in nhl its too much. Look at last match between colorado calgary, two or free fights in first period. realy team needs to see some punches to get energy? realy needs psychical help when score is 0-0? I know that team needs to protect their key players, but I know that same team have some big guys to make some killing hits on opponents key players.

[qweryf]

AND i know that when is match close to end and north american characters are losing they want to fight. Especially canadians, we (czech) have some experience with them - 1996 world championship - canada loose 5 - 3 and go to useless fight, 2004 world championship loosing 6 - 2 and what canada going to do? fight of course. 2005 world championship final, canada loosing 3 - 0 and go to fight again. good example of north amrican nature

[ryanv1917]

sorry you cant handle real hockey, north america is where it started and we know how the game is supposed to be played. why do u think the european success rate in the nhl was so low until the early-mid 90's, because they couldnt handle the physical play the north american game brings. european game is so much more wide open and ticky-tac that they couldnt adjust. but i admit they have now somewhat

[qweryf]

north american players are still best no doubt, but im trying to tell you that big frequency of fights in nhl is simply useless and stupid, and if you americans are so enjoying fights ok, i cant do nothing, americans just loves fights. and in early-mid 90's theres few europeans in north america not like in present. however nhl is best league and im enjoying great fast hockey with lot of goals and dekes, but not chopy game which fights causes.

[mtocrazy]

he doesn't go to the box because his helmet is broken. he has to go to the equipment manager.

[426brandon]

Its absolutely amazing how arrogant Blackhawk fans are.

[Loyalty1269]

imagine if the commentators talked gangsta during a fight "oh man nigga done threw a hard left. Homey dont play that shit. May is swingin mothafuckin haymakers nigga. dont fuck wit the veteran dawg." only in my dreams would that happen

[germxv]

brad may- hey kid, i am going to school your young ass and welcome you to the league.

Smolenak- ok, old fart, let's see what you have left in your rusty tank.

linesman- hey charlie, watch these jackasses behind me, would ya?!

[CCMhockey06]

thata boy May

[PSonak]

Why do idiots refer to Red WIng fans as "bandwagon fans"? The WIngs have been good for twenty years...you really can't be a bandwagon fan anymore. If you were a bandwagon fan and still are a fan then you are just a fan. According to your dumbass logic you can't just be a fan of the Wings if you are under 30. Jealous bitches.

[DanPisha]

maybe instead of all these people callin wings fans bandwagoners, they should get a clipboard, pen, and paper, and take notes on how to run a successful franchise.

[armenianply]

go wings and go may the next aaron downey lol.

[fallensaint09]

oh man i miss aaron downey. Brad Mays pretty bad ass. GO WINGS!

[SuperPigdestroyer]

what is happening to my beloved wings this season man its looking grim

[hmutter83]

I also watch a lot of the Blackhawks and I think Duncan Keith is much better than Brian Campbell and so is Brent Seabrook

[CCMhockey06]

brad may is the bomb

[lizlena789]

19 musician female here, and you aint never seen nuthin like theeeese befoe

[TheFredde5]

they just sucks!!!!

[TheIronLifter]

you tell em tough guy

[TheFredde5]

haha sukers

[icanafforditt]

two more NHL fags pretending to be men. Remove your helmets, THEN start swinging.

[TheIronLifter]

theres a reason they dont wear visors when they fight. its to not hit a visor when you swing at someones face. you dont swing at the top of their head. but, im sure youre the one to tell brad may hes not a man from behind the anonymity of a keyboard. keep on truckin tough guy

[Ushiwakamura]

true dat!

[RedWings0014]

its a beautiful thing

[Hossified]

Im glad to see some fights back in hockey town. Detroit has focused so much on speed and skill the past couple years. They needed a good tough guy that can also play on the 3rd or 4th line like May.

[brutallyunbiased]

Stupid fucking announcers...obviously his helmet strap was fucked up.

[ebmartini]

Come On you can't knock Mickey Redmond!

[brutallyunbiased]

"Mickey" made a bonehead call....happens to all of us.

[llSgtScopell]

May for the win!!!

And did you see the lineman at the face off?!? Turns around, sees who it is and tells the ref they are about to go

[BubbaHoTep01]

Fuck man, we just can't beat the Wings at anything. Hawks need to go out there and start a brawl at some point this season. I think the Wings just see them as a bunch of talented kids, but really don't respect them. Like Mr. Miyagi says,"win, lose no matter, make good fight and earn respect".

[poppystein]

at least you admit it.

[ebmartini]

Actually if you saw any of the pre game interviews, the Wings talked about how good of a club the blackhawks are and will be this year. Just not good enough to beat the RedWings. Sorry you lost!

[Kartracer6]

Actually I wouldn't be to proud of that win. It took a goalie who had one suprisingly good game a bad penalty called and like 4 of the main blackhawk players injured. And a huge amount of luck with that crappy chunked Ice Detroit always has. Chicago clearly out played Detroit in this game Osgood is the biggest reason Detroit won. They should consider picking it up if they wanna compete for the cup this year

[2010chubbs]

oh quit your bitching it was a regular season game for crying out loud

[Kartracer6]

Detroit has the most of those mainly because of their advantage in the Original 6. Detroit's salery cap is going to hit just as bad as Chicago and every other major team and wasn't Detroit paying more for Hossa then Chicago. Is this really Detroits only defense to any argument screaming you have 11 cups.  Seriously how about using something more original. Funny you would bring up the salery cap when it was Detroit who cryed about it to begin with

[Kartracer6]

yes chicago was an original 6 team but they where disadvantaged as was New York and Boston. the 3 teams that were advantaged were Detroit, Montreal, and Toronto. Second of all the reason Hossa doesn't play for Detroit was cause they are paying 2 players alone 12 million combined. They couldn't afford Hossa. Wasted Defenseman my ass he's got 7 points 2nd best for the Hawks. Only one guy on Detroit has 7 points. And Osgood...what a joke of a goalie wasn't he ranked 41 out of 47 last year

[Kartracer6]

Yes they were one of 3 teams not given first pick to a large number of talented players at the time. The same talent Detroit did have first pick to. Who exactly thinks your give value to these players maybe Campbell is worth what they are paying. And as for those states he better be up their with how many games it's taken him to get their LOL 3 Stanley cups please just cause you play one game in the finals you get your name contributed to the stanley cup. LOL yes he sat the bench and got a cup

[Kartracer6]

your an idiot Chicago's run last year was only predicted to make it to the first round and go out but instead it took Detroits cheap shot on our top scorer and the luck of an injured goalie to get past us. Only to go out in the finals anyway. Ha so we are currently at a better looking budget then Detroit is anyway yet it's looking good for Chicago now still early but look where Detroit sits

[Kartracer6]

Cheap shot. Perfect text book of a penalty deserving of a game misconduct just as the book said. Penalty for hitting a guy to prevent him from getting a puck and a game misconduct for it resulting in an injury. LOL Detroit's lossing the players they've had for like 20 years you notice what's happening to their team. So they had the cups off of the original 6 advantage and the same players for years. The budget is a new era...so far seems Chicago is surviving better then Detroit

[Kartracer6]

Your the dip shit. the hit on Havlat was text book penalty and ejection exactly as the rules read. You probably know nothing of the original 6 ya....the 3 advantaged teams where Toronto, Montreal, and Detroit...ha go on guess which has the least cups...DETROIT!!

Cubs fan ha...let me guess your a lions fan haha. And your too stupid to realize the budget is everyones problem not just Chicago Seems to me Detroits hurting more then Chicago so far with the budgets.

[Kartracer6]

First off Cubs fans where cheering for the Sox. I like all Chicago teams retard. How about our very successful soccer team how's your's doing....or can Detroit even fund a soccer team. I notice you the Lions to the Cubs..LOL what's the Matter can't compete with the bears 9 championships. LOL and millions watch NBA all around the world you racist pig. Grow up none of this has anything to do with the inital comment anyway.

[Kartracer6]

Aww...I think I hurt your feelings LOL. Wings 11 you go thank the NHL for helping you win most of those...oh wait your completely convinced that Bartman is screwing you. Hahaha. I have to know since your either so simple minded or have a serious case of ADD. What exactly does this even have to do with the inital comment that Detroit should consider picking up their game and not relying on Osgood to get them a win next time.

[Kartracer6]

The Hawks are suffering from injuries also...you just can't tell it because of how good they are. The reason the Wings have won so much is because of the years of having the same overpaid players. I mean seriously watch if Chicago keeps these same players for years to come they will do the same exact thing. And who cares what detroit did in the past or even 2008-09 season they are just as rested as the rest of the NHL.

[Kartracer6]

Are you serious. All teams got rested up on the off season in a span of months they got time to rest up just as the hawks did. The budget problem has to do with everyone not just Chicago and looking at the budget Chicago should be fine keeping Kane and the rest of the talent. Detroit has over paid players. LOL I mean seriously 2 of your players alone where getting paid 12 million combined. And funny you hired Hossa for more then us yet you believe they pay less then market value.

[Kartracer6]

Seriously kid Detroit is clearly full of over paid players.  They have on of the highest total income teams in the NHL. Well as of 2008-2009 anyway. You guess do nothing more then New York Yankees yet with all this given to you you still cry about how Bartman is suppose to be screwing you. Crying about everything as the hawks focus forward and thru our disadvantages in the past we plain to start a new era. So you guess just sit at the bottom of the standings and cry. You lose kid grow up

[Kartracer6]

Wow are you really this childish on a regular occasion. Yes I know how a Salary cap works yes I know how payrolls work believe me it's one of my majors. Who cares how you spell bettman's name you would know your probably another one who thinks he's against you. Yes bandwagon jumper perfect word for idiot redwings fans. So ya you enjoy your ungodly high Unemployment rate I'll just enjoy my studies at University of Chicago grow up kid learn to have a conversation you really need help. Cry baby

[Kartracer6]

Ya your the one acting like a jealous bitch. I'm a first generation college student I'm putting my self thru school no support from anyone. The reason because before going to school I worked some jobs filled with stupid asses like you who just do nothing but hide behind a computer because you probably can't handle real life. Been a hawks fan since the day I was born in Chicago. Oh ya Unemployment refers to Detroit area. Oh are you not from there.  LOL your probably another bandwagon jumper

[Kartracer6]

Can't really call Chicago a shit hole...especially when you compare it to other major cities like LA or even Detroit. Every city has bad hoods. Chicago also has alot of Rich lands. I became a Chicago fan cause I'm from Chicago I've grown up around all the sports there. I was their for the 6 NBA Championships and will be their for the Stanley cup. And hopeful them Lovable cubs will get that World Series. Obama...ha at least we kinda agree. except it's not his fault it's GM's for Detroit

[WarmothGuitarist]

Tell ya what...

Lets be done with this...

Good luck to you, your Hawks, Cubs Bears and Bulls....and even your White Sox.

Stay in college and finish your studies. It's getting to be rough in the job market, and you're going to need every little bit over the next guy applying for the position.

Lastly... If you want it, you have to take it (legally speaking). Noone will give you anything, and you have to fight for everything.

Be good, stay safe...and we'll see you in the playoffs.

[DanPisha]

1. detroit, or chicago, we both live in america. its pretty low that ur going to bring up 'unemployment' jokes towards your own people.

2. Inform your professors at "University of Chicago" that you need to learn how to spell and use grammar, you talk like you should be wearing a helmet and a lifevest.

3. Maybe instead of calling Detroit fans "bandwagoners," you should get a clipboard, pen, and paper, and take notes on how to run a successful franchise.

[Pistonsfan1311]

OH MY GOSH!!! I didn't even read what the other guy said but that is by far the best comeback i have read.

[DanPisha]

4. Since when was "Salary Caps" a major in college?

[Kartracer6]

I guess since one side of a conversation that got dropped a while ago is gone, worthless goons like yourself feel they know what's going on and have to put input on a lost convesation. Oh and Salary Caps is part of my major it's called Buisness Sports Managment, and partially Macroeconomics. You realize these are texts brackets, they are not graded on grammar and spelling their kido. Let me guess your some highschool kid who has nothing else to do but youtube. Go get some friends and grow up

[AnaheimDucks39]

that was a great comeback Dan Pisha

[Kartracer6]

He retard kid Kane never beat the shit out of a cabbie learn your facts his cousin hit him and it was cause the cabbie locked them into the cab. Self defense to me. Oh and last I checked like 4 to 5 of Detroits players are getting paid between 5 and 7 million a year. Oh and hossa will recover and we'll get him in the future. If Chicago is as good as they are now imagine what they will be when all these injuries clear up. Give it up Hawks are better Detroit's dying get used to it

[DanPisha]

hossa will bring you down gaurenteed.

[Kartracer6]

do you even know the market value of a player...probably not.

[Kartkid024]

Terrible fight. I was kinda pissed May went and held Smolenak down like that. I was hoping to see a fight. I do get a kick out of people saying May destroyed him and what not, not really sure about that. I'd say call it a draw, if you can even call it a fight.

[TheIronLifter]

terrible fight? yeah we all know as soon as you made your way to the NHL and fought brad may that bitch would be a highlight reel fight. not a fight? i dunno after watching the video of the dudes with their gloves off swinging haymakers it looked like a fight to me? and oh my fucking god, he pushed his head down at the end of the fight. what a pussy! lol....

[Kartkid024]

I say terrible fight because like you said, it was nothing but throwing punches. No one really connected. Which is why I found it funny people said he destroyed him. I'm not sure how if no one connected. And I never said May was a pussy, just pissed he held him down, I was hoping he'd let him up and see if someone could connect. But I guess he was tired or something.

[wohs145]

welcome to Detroit, Brad May.

[Lindros1988]

May tooled on him.

[XIBS117IX]

destroyed

[Gamenerd19]

May win that won.

[ghjkfdhgfd]

thats like the 4th or 5th fight that arena seen a LONG time
