  • It's like poking a bear.

  • I remember that hit. They showed DiMaio on the bench afterward. He was actually crying. That must have been some wicked pain.

  • eric lindros is a fuckin train

  • If you had 8 concussions, you'd be angry

  • Typical dirty Lindros...guys half his size were his favorite targets. He didn't fare so well against guys Scott Steven's size ha ha...

  • Nice single leg takedown.......right outta the book lol

  • HULKKK SMASH!!!!!!

  • Yes, Lindros executed a leg sweep then slammed him to the ice but how much crap do you expect the NHL's best player at the time to take? Think that would have happened to Gretzky? Lindros let him get away with one shot, but an additional cheap shot from some bubble player trying to make a name off Lindros? Screw that, he got what he deserved.

  • @horseshoes100 You're kidding me, right? He got what he deserved? So, let's add this up: slightly high elbow into the shoulder + taking the player you're defending out of the play = slewfoot and Rob DiMaio almost getting Bertuzzi'd. Oh, but wait! He 'took crap' from other players! Why, that magically absolves him from any blame!

  • @thatguyizzy6 - Good for you, you saw the 1st one - the elbow that Lindros ignored. Did you happen to see the 2nd? The forearm which was an attempt to drive Lindros' head into the glass and, far worse yet, complete the simultaneous can opener (both were well after Lindros' delivered the pass and interference)? Bertuzzi'd? You're kidding me right? The two plays had nothing in common. Again, why should Lindros should take that crap? DiMaio got just what he deserved.

  • That would be awesome if he played now with crybaby Crosby. Lindros would give him something to cry about.

  • Comment removed

  • I wonder how it felt for big baby Lindros watching the Avs piling up the championships.

  • Just more proof of Lindros being an asshole.

  • @bobschaer Otherway round pal.

  • @s8tank I won't deny that DiMaio deserved whatever he got. But Lindros was just plain mean. Dirty shots, elbows, and after a guy went down in a fight most players would back off-not Lindros. Guy's got some anger issues.

  • man that is dirty.

  • WATCH LINDROS'S LEFT LEG RIGHT AT THE END...

  • ouch!

  • HULK SMASH !!

  • @KeepOnLimpin lololollol yes or HULK KILL PUNY HUMAN!!

  • mess with the bull, you get the horns.

  • Lindros always did get cheap shots on him, but he couldn't keep his cool. He slammed the dude to the ice, could have made him uglier than he already was!

  • LINDROS THEGREAT!!!!

  • Oh boy cue up the Lindros hate, even though he clearly was in the right here for once.

    Ex. Blah blah fuck Lindros he wouldn't play for Quebec because he was racist blah blah blah.

  • Haha mess with the bull, get the horns.

  • Clear crimminal act. Attempt to murder.

  • @carcaril Shut the fuck up. That guy was stickin his elbows and fists right in Lindros' face. I'd slam him on the ground too.

  • go lightning

  • All these Lindros fanboys here....

    Barely an elbow there, and Lindros drives his head into the ice. Good thing Karma's a bitch and ended his career.

  • @mrfluffy02 you couldn't have any less respect. there is no "good thing" when someone's career is ended you asshole. barely an elbow? yeah but for at least 5 seconds after Lindros doesn't have the puck he was still all over him. He got what he deserved. 

  • ahaaaaaa

  • i think he deserved that

  • OMFG YES, He takes out his back legs and just smashes him down... Thats what he gets for trying to "hit" someone double his size.

    Cheap or not, it was bad ass.

  • @LegendaryGoetz you re a wicked monster. Can you sleep at night. You re a pure evil.

  • Once again, beautiful, just beautiful.

  • definition of ownage

  • ragdalled

  • every hockey player knows when you start throwin bows and getting you stick up high your going to get slamed... he found out the hard way. i wish lindy was still playing he would have given the business to crosby and ovechkin

  • He earned that one. Thought E would back down. NOPE. Slammed. NEXT!

  • look had the bigger dick

  • lindros was the hulk. no question.

  • mucked

  • Takes out his legs then drives him into the ice, Beaty , I love it

  • HAAHHAHAHAH OWNED

  • Funny stuff.

  • it looks like Dimaio was hurt even before he got slammed. He crashed into Lindros kind of awkwardly. Dimaio was tough. I think most dudes wouldn't have gotten up at all, after that.

  • Squashing the bug.

  • dirty hit

  • holy shit. throws him like a rag

  • i really like this hit, couse its more like a UFC takedown than a hockey hit :)

  • Woah, you mess with the bull, and you get the horn...and did DiMaio ever get the fuckin' horn! Ouch!

  • I guess the lesson here is: don't piss off guys who are bigger than you. Unless of course, you want to get fucked up...

  • Lindros Greatest all time.

  • i love how lindros like to beat up on little guys, but got his ass handed to him be stevens and kaspiritius lol

  • @shanis81 ..went both ways..

  • that was fucking dirty

  • @BeEazzzy DiMaio was trying to get under the skin of a monster... thats what happens.

  • @BeEazzzy no that was earned...

  • other then bobby or there was no jr player as dominate as lindros hands down, if any of u had the privilege to see him play when he was in jr. or even minor hockey you would know where im coming from

  • @trousersnake7 ahh but your wrong. mario lemieux was the best jr player of all time. 282 points in one season i believe one year.. incredible

  • 0:25 Great Ippon from Eric!

  • "Ooo, and someone got hammered over here"... haha, golden commentary.

  • Was that Gene Hart I was hearing?! Those were the days...

  • he deserved it, dimaio went after him twice.

  • @JohnnyBev Kind of his job to go after the skilled players. But in no way was a forearm to the face the right response.

  • Do it once and you might get a way. Do it twice and its payback time.

  • thats what happens when ur an asshole

  • Eric Lindros= Best hitter EVER

  • Scott Stevens=Best hitter EVER.

  • that was brutal

  • you dont try to hit lindros especially when it wasnt neccessary, he learned his lesson

  • Aw the good old days of the NHL I remember being a huge Lightning fan when I moved down to st petersburg fla after living in stl. So the bolts and blues are both my teams but I hate lindros

  • Typical noob has two favorite teams. Hertless fag go watch some nascar.

  • your a flyers fan so I would watch who your calling a fag you live in that piece of crap state and city you probablly sleep in your parents bed and jackoff to lindros pictures you silly little prick

  • yep you gotit figured out weall eat cheesteaks and stab people so dont ever bring your fatass here. Huge lightning fan ? You must have been the only one. Joke of an NHL team , always has been always will be. Oh yeh we know hockey here too fruit nuts.

  • For your information I just watch the lightning still and consider the Blues to be my favorite team but I forgot your from philly you only understand cheesesteak and stabbing

  • blues and lighting????? seriously??? just stop watching hockey.

  • Why dont you stop watching hockey

    GO BLUES

  • BEAST

  • Haha, "STOP PUSHING ME!" and bang

  • Damn, Lindros swept Dimaio's legs out from under him and murdered him.

  • lindros what a fucken punk,mr glass jaw

  • Beautiful.

    You poke the bear long enough, he gets pissed, and shows you your place.

  • @TrustYourOwnInstinct... I've never heard anyone put it so perfectly. For good or ill, it's how the world actually works. Everything else is foolish self-victimization.

  • That was fuckin boss!

  • Hockey is a contact and collision sport. Some of its players are good at that aspect of the game. Some of those players are nasty and vicious. Other players are being ignorant if they do not recognize this. Every player who chooses to step onto the ice takes the risk.

  • Great Hit

  • lindros was the man.great hit perfectly clean 100%

  • Damn, that's a textbook perfect takedown.

  • Dimaio deserved it..his elbow was in lindros's face

  • Kicks the leg out then body slams him...

    Lindros is a classy guy.

  • Look at all the babies and girls crying for a suspension to Lindros 10 years later. Fuck off you faggots, you're the reason hockey is a pussy sport now.

  • You're an idiot. Punishing players for performing actions that could kill a person, and making sure these plays stay out of the **GAME** makes hockey a pussy sport?

    And I'm not calling for a suspension ten years later: I saw a video up, watched it, and commented that he should have been suspended for these actions. There's a difference.

    Now shut up, you ignorant twat.

  • Yeah it does, Rocket Richard used to swing his stick at peoples heads and Gordie Howe threw the people's elbow around all the time. Now go back to reading your new issue of The Hockey News and pick up a real sport you can appreciate, like gymnastics.

  • Thats the way hockey was palyed then, you can't get punished for something a long time ago which was in the mind of the players "legal", and greg is right, compared with the 90's this is pussy, but also more technical with players like ovechkin and Crosby...

  • Hey Gumby... You are really an idiot? If Lindros would have dropped his gloves and pounded him it would have been good traditional hockey. Body slamming his head to the ice is as classless as it gets in any era of hockey. That's why Erica-Linda Ross was punished by all the concussions. No one liked him.

  • lol

    and they were dozens of strongers player than lindross 250 pounds of hamburgers

  • You guys are nuts. DiMaio came in with his elbows high intending to hurt Lindros. Lindros took a lot of abuse because of his size. He had a right to deffend himself and do what was necessary to discourage further attemtps.

  • biggest guy in the league against the smallest, and he has to pull that.. no class.

  • lindros is a fucking bitch

  • It's fucking disgusting how he slams his head into the ground. That's how you give someone a career ending brain injury.

  • Well Jimih64 I understand your reply but if you look closely you see DiMaio started all this. He attacked Lindros first and his elbow even came up and then Lindros decided to punish him. So in this case it was asking for trouble

  • Dude DiMaio's 3/4 his size. He got his elbow up alright, directly into Lindros' shoulder. OH NOES! Lindros could've given him a serious brain injury doing that.

  • So because someones asking for trouble you have the right to kill them?

    Pretend you're a hockey player. Someone that's 3/4 your size hits you, illegally or not - and in this case, the elbow hit Eric's chest/shoulder, so who cares - and you respond by taking a course of action that could very realistically kill a man?

    It's a disgusting play that should have had Lindros suspended for an entire season.

    If you're talking about payback, this is no worse than what Todd Bertuzzi did to Steve Moore.

  • So if you walk on the street and someone who is smaller than you attacks you by pushing you against the wall you won't do anything? Then you are very naive. So in this case Eric should have stayed away from DiMaio? I'm sorry but then you don't known the spirit of the Big E

  • lol the spirit of a killer? What spirit..

    Elbows happen in hockey all the time. It's a penalty, and the players get on with their lives.

    Had this situation played out any differently, DiMaio could VERY realistically be dead.

    If a player gets crosschecked, the victim (if they're smart) gets back at them by scoring on the upcoming powerplay; not by taking a course of action that could end the man's life.

    I liked Eric's play style too, but he should have been suspended a long time for this.

  • It's certainly no worse. Infact, it's not even close to being as bad.

  • The attempt to injure was exactly the same. The only two differences are: One player got injured on a play, and it was premeditated.

    This 'hit' could have done just as much damage to Dimaio, if not more, extremely easily.

    To most logical people, a blind punch to the head, then jumping on his limp body and performing no more aggressive actions: vs grabbing a small guy, and driving him head first into a rock hard surface with as much force as you can muster, is pretty much one and the same.

  • Look up 'premeditated' in a dictionary before you respond next time. LOL yeah Lindros knew before the game what DiMaio was gonna do and planned this out in revenge. Idiot.

  • OHHH!!! OUCH!!!!

  • i'm no "lindros fan" by any means but most of the time when he was "dirty" it was to players who deserved it...guys would do little bitchy cheapshot things to lindros all day long just because they couldn't actually stand up to him...so, in a sport like hockey, you poke the bear twice the size of you enough, it's going to come back rip your head off, and i think that's what happened to dimaio here along with a few others.

  • @jmiller006 this couldn't have been put any better. well said

  • @jmiller006 what about dackell?

  • @jmiller006 Haha LOL! DiMaio messed with the bull, and did he ever get the fukn horn!

  • @jmiller006 You are ABSOLUTELY right! I'm a diehard Flyers fan but I was never too fond of Lindros, he was overrated, a hothead, and ignored a lot of fundamental things (like keeping your head up), but any time he did something like this, it was definitely provoked. Look at DiMaio throwing elbows the entire way into the corner, what is Lindros supposed to do there?

  • @jmiller006 this sort of thing needs to happen to Matt Cooke..

  • jesus. throws him like a mitten.

  • wow do that today and ur gone for 20 games

  • too true. i miss old hockey. not encouraging players to go crazy, but u cant do shit without getting a suspension. unless your malkin and/or a penguin >:(

  • was that legal?

  • actually ... yes

  • So.... Dimiao thrwoing the elbow isnt dirty,it kills me that they let idiots who know nothing about hockey post stuff on here.Watch the vid again moron,stop being biased...

  • call that an elbow? fucking clueless

  • yea though dimaio might have had a little elbow in there, lindros slew-footing him and fall with all of his body weight onto his face is a surefire way of injuring someone and is very dirty.

  • mess with the bull you get the horns

  • Way to pull a Bertuzzi Big E.

  • You're an idiot and so is Damaio

    He should have thought about it before he went after Lindros

  • Yeah, DiMaio should have totally thought about Lindros using all of his 250 pounds to piledrive his head into ice after DiMaio was following through on the player he was guarding. Oh well, E just had to learn from Scott Stevens' elbows the hard way that what goes around comes around.

  • Atta boy Big E
