Why do people love to drag Lindros down?! Only because he refused to play for Quebec???? This happened in 1991!!! People grow up for goodness sake and get over it!! He is and always will be my number 1 player ever. Yes he made mistakes but who doesn't?????
I've said it a thousand times, the elbow never extends, it was pure upper arm and shoulder. Was Stevens head hunting? Yes, was it legal Yes. Sorry big E but you got served sucka!
Think about a forearm,because that's what it was.The safest part of your arm with strong bone and a pad on it.That's what that asshole used just to make sure that Eric wouldn't get up.And it wasn't just the blow,but Eric,already unconcious,hit the ice with his head.Double severe concussion right there.Amazingly Eric came back later on.

The beginning of the end for a great player. Hall of Famer. Search for Tiny Tim Cheapshot for a Tim Benz horribly-cowardess cheapshot in a recreational flag football league.
hey scumbag, listen here. Stevens was and is the man. There hasnt been a player that has been feared like stevens before. He is a dominant defenseman and the leader of the Devils. Not to mention a Hall of Famer. btw, always keep your head up when crossing the blue line. Lindros deserved it.
THREE. Ask the HALL OF FAME. Stevens nailed lindros for putting his head down like an amateur and killing the dreams of flyer fans in that "legion of doom era". If their was any moment in hockey history that deflated the hopes of faithful fans. THAT WAS IT!!!
Stevens threw nothing but clean checks that knocked out clowns with their heads down like Lindross there. He's just doing his job by hitting people, can't hate on him for being good at it.
It is about as obvious as can be that he sticks his elbow right into Lindros's head. It was a mark of Scott Steven's to take head shots, whether he was using his shoulder (rarely) or his elbow, he ALWAYS went after players's heads, NOT, their chest, like you are supposed to. A dirty, dirty player.
btw, if you look at the first video listed in the "related videos" section you can clearly see that his elbow does not make contact with lindros, it was his shoulder, his elbow comes up because of the contact, its a natural follow through, if you dont beleive me strap on the skates and let me take a run at you (FYI I'm a goalie but i can still knock you on your ass)
yeah, ignore the fact that he was one of the best defencemen in the modern era. He owned his blue line. And he owned the other blue line too. 908 points? I hate the devils but he is well deserved for hall of fame. That hit was not dirty at all.
Video speaks for its self yeah he probably shoulda had his head up But Philly Blew the series lead with out him on ice pretty much he played one game and was like 7 mins into that one . i dont think he was healed from the Kasper hit completely , hitting a guy with a elbo in head thats not looking is a CHEAP SHOT, he knew eric was comming back from Concussion to say he didint meant o hurt him is Bullshit ! was deliberate !
Your right but Stevens didn't need to throw his elbow into his face. Watch the clip again he saw his head was somewhat down, he didn't need to do that!
Actually... take a closer look. I first thought it was an elbow, but look close on this and other replays and you'll see that Steven's shoulder made contact first and in the uplift (proper checking technique) was when the elbow hit. The concussion came on the shoulder.
Scott Stevens does get a few cheap shots every now and then but this one was totally Lindros' fault. You have to look up when skating with the puck. You'd think he'd know that by now after 10+ concussions.
some of you guys are fucking dumb first off stevens isnt a head hunter and first off you have to watch out for the big hits anyways like fuck lindros is a dumb fuck for not keeping his head up and same goes for all the players that get fucking killed with there head down lol
Oh that one (you have to be specific w/ Lindros and concussions). Lindros has skated with his head down his entire career. That kind of stuff happens when you do that.
Flyers shouldn't have played him anyway. I'm a flyers and I think flyers fans have more right then most to comment. I hated Lindros for a long time for the crap he put us through here in philly. Although I did hate him for that I still don't think Stevens of all players should get praise at all. Dirty player that is all he was found anyway possible to injure players and he tried his hardest to do it all the time.
Stevens is sometimes recognized as one of the hardest hitter and sometimes as a cheap-shot hitting dude. But the reality in this video is that Lindros is retarded and can't play hockey with his eyez not looking the puck.... dumbass
wtf. he is a good palyer look at his numbers. the only reason he has all those concussions is because of fucking headhunters like scott stevens. he basicly clothelined him there
That's really sad. Maybe that's why he talks with a lisp? Whatever it may be, I think he's gorgeous and am really glad to have him on the Dallas Stars.
he was just a stupid bully..deserved it
