  • I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out!

  • There were more puches thrown by either of them than in most NHL fights. Have to give Potvin credit for making it a fight because Hextall was batshit crazy.

  • Potvin should have stayed home....Hextall is a junkyard dog.

  • well there you have it in Canada the players fight. down here in America the goalies fight

  • what's wrong with you americans? it's ice-hockey, not boxing? do you adore anything else in hockey but fighting? haha :D

  • Hextall was one of the best goalies of all time he is in the NHL hall of fame soo fuck everyone who hates hextall and the flyers

  • the title of the video should be........search the puck!

  • Hextall would have won no problem if it wasn't for the equipment getting in the way. Greatest goaltender of all time! Most talented! Martin Brodeur's hero!

  • @sanQ - Potvin was wearing his equipment too and got the better of it. Nobody thought Hextall was tough. Hextall's 'Billy Smith' act was as big a joke around the league as when Billy Smith did it.

  • @HelmutHedd Just jealous!!! lol

  • goooo hextal!!!

  • This fight was a draw with a slight edge to Potvin if anything. Those Philly announcers sure are biased!

  • hextall is fucking moving best flyers fight ever

  • hextall is a machine!!!

  • Felix Potvin is a Warrior! hextallsthe sickest goalie ever

  • Hextall was a freight train to Potvin!!! Wow...

  • NOW THIS IS HOCKEY!!!!

  • I was surprised by how well Potvin did... Hextall just doesn't give a fuck... ever.. lol

  • @ledzppn69 felix potvins dad was a heavyweight boxer and both his boys know how to throw down so when i saw hextall skate towards potvin i knew he bit off more than he can chew

  • Draw

  • wow this video has logical comments on it, almost everybody is saying it was a good fights and potvin did farely well for facing a bigger hextall by getting some licks in, most of the videos on this has most of the comments saying how potvin wrecked hextall, all in all it was GREAT FIGHT and DRAW

  • i dont get how so many people say how hextall got slaughtered here, since when does blood mean u slaughter the guy, its a draw, they shared punches. heck hexall might hav connected with more, the only reason potvin went toe to toe was cus he had a great grip of hextalls jersey, if he hadnt hextall would hav slaughtered him, DRAW and a great goalie fight

  • R u retarded? Potvin got his ass kicked Hextall just got his jersey pulled off

  • I think I missed the ass kicking by Potvin...

  • Philly announcers Jim Jackson and especially Gary Dornhoffer. Two absolute cocksucking faggots.

  • Potvin didnt kik Hextalls ass at all it was pretty even

  • Most epic goalie fight I've ever seen! Two of my favorites as a kid, too.

  • for those who complain about Roy being bigger than Osgood...I don't know if you can call either goalie a winner here, but there is one VERY noticeable fact. Felix 'The cat' Potvin is WAY smaller than Ron Hextall, but still held his own and got in a few licks. Osgood didn't get ANY in on Roy.

  • Potvin was caught off guard for the first bit. you could see he was shocked. but he came back on got some good shots in!

  • What are you talking about!! Hextall raped potvin! I'm a huge Leaf fan! i mean not one of them "leaf fan" leaf fans- i dont cheer for ottawa or montreal if the leafs get knocked out

  • @94xr7 thank you, do u understand how so many people think potvin killed hextall?

  • good classic fight, i remember watching this live on tv. hextall skated to the other end of the ice without hesitation with his usual confidence, but potvin was ready for him, not scared, didn't take a step back, and i think that surprised hextall a bit.

  • lol Philly broadcasters, I guess they didnt see the blood pouring down Hextall's face

  • @tmlms1313 blood doesnt mean a W or win, it was an even fight, i am sure hextall got some good shots in to that just didn draw blood, there are many fights where a guy comes out bleeding and the other guy isnt but the guy who is bleeding pounded the other guy and won, blood isnt a decisive factor

  • gotta love the intensity

  • hextal's beast

  • most announcers and all refs must burn

  • Felix won. You retarded flyer fans need to get ur eyes checked, u homos.

  • Other than the cut, Frenchy had the snot beat out of him.

  • @badnewsBH lol ya thast like u getting knocked the fuck out then sayin other then me getting knocked the fuck out, i think i won

  • @badnewsBH lol ya thast like u getting knocked the fuck out then sayin other then me getting knocked the fuck out, i think i won, hextall lost deal with it

  • another example why hockey= best sport

  • This fight is borderline, but due to the Hextall's injury if you had to claim a winner it would be Potvin. That being said, how old was Hextall when this happened, 30 something? The guys balding! Some of Hextall's best fight videos date back 10 before this. If you beat Hextall in a fight in the 80's id be something to brag about.

  • potvin not by much

  • but ya gotta admit it was a good fight

  • hextalls a beast

  • only in toronto potvin won.leaf fans are stupid.that was a draw if anything.just cause your bleeding ,doesnt mean you lost.hextall buckulled potvins knees with a shot just before he got his jursey pulled over his head.i suppose,you stupid leaf fans think wendy beat marty cause marty got cut.wendy landed the first 3 shots,than hung on for deer life.marty pounded the little GOOF.by the way loser fans ,get over 1993 the HABS WOULD HAVE SWEPT YA.

  • Hextall raped Potvin

  • Comment removed

  • Are these guys trying to say potvin lost the fight lol, incredible homers, what this video doesn't show you is the one side of hextall's faced all bloody.

  • Clearly Hextall won. Although Potvin held his own. It was one punch that made it a unanimous decision. Hextall is the Winner.

  • i call it a draw, both goalies held there own, considering it was hextall, id say the cat did well

  • Umm wtf? Hextall out punched him 2-1! and they were good shots..not even close! how the fuck can anyone think Potvin won?

  • That's awesome how all the players stop fighting to watch the goalies go at it lol. Hextall is the shit.

  • @GoAvalanche09

    The best part is definitely the slight "Wow wtf?" Looks on the players faces as they stop fighting and commence watching...

  • hes fuckn pshyco yo potvin dident even wanna fight but he beat his ass lol

  • Hextall has a china chin.

  • This is an entertaining fight. And what makes it better is no complaining by the Flyers announcers. Nope, eating it up actually. Hextall is once again an crazy motherfucker and nice job by Potvin. I won't say who won and I really don't care. Enjoyed it for what it is.

  • awesome fight!!!

  • See now this was a good goalie fight. Potvin was much smaller but still got in his blows. I am an Avalanche fan and I think this is the best goalie fight.

    Can any Leafs/Flyers fans explain that size doesn't matter on the ice to the Red Wings fans? They complain because Osgood is smaller than Roy.

  • it took him 8sec to get down to the other end holy shit hes quick

  • I love Philly announcers!!!! Instead talking about how dumb fighting is they respect the fact that it is the most entertaining part of the sport. If ESPN or Versus announced games like that it would be the most popular sport in america.

  • @discorambo Like it or not, fighting has always been an integral part of this sport. It wasn't until these pussy, prima donna European players came into the league that all hese measures were taken to try and rid the sport of it. You knew what you were getting into and if you went to a game, you knew what was likely to happen. It's always been a cultural aspect of the sport.

  • The bloody eye was pretty much a lucky shot. Potvin got his ass handed to him in the hit count.. and also Potvin was the one that started going down. All you lame leaf blow jobbers actually watch the fight

  • @CloudGT4 thank you, somone who actually watched the fight

  • GO FELIX

    GO LEAFS GO!!!!!!!

  • I dont see how Potvin "destroyed" hextall.. It might have been close, Potvin was getting some good shots in but hextall didnt stop he just kept swinging away

  • Ron got fuckn owned!

  • good fight. i say potvin won though.

  • Way to go Potvin!... held his own on that one

  • Potvin held his own. You have a guy who hasn't had a single fight going toe to toe with a known serial shit disturber and he took it and dished it. Hextall didn't lose this one except in the sense that Potvin was still standing. I don't think either one has to hang their head they both took good shots and gave good shots.

  • This video doesn't even have the camera angle that shows how bloody Hextall was.

  • hextall kicked his ass

  • its like watching 2 fat guys fight over the last slice of cake

  • @differentskater ROTFPMPLMAO it's funny cause it's true. lol 2 fat guys all cranky on a sugar crash fighting like 2 wart hogs for the last hunk of cake, I need it, no I need it, no i need it lol

  • the uploader is a complete idiot, beat the Blank out of him?

    Lol blind, and bleeding in a fight doesn't mean you lost, it just means the other guy god in a good hit, you obviously aren't a fighter. So let's say you hit me, I bleed, right after you hit me or simultaneously i hit you, and you get knocked out and I have dignity so I leave you there, you lost but yet i bled. MORON bleeding doesn't mean you lost especially if you stood your ground until the refs broke it up. i

  • Hextall didn't get f'd up?

  • I love watching Hextall get his ass handed to him. By a frog makes it even better.

  • Féééééééééééélix Potvin!!!!

  • Hextall lost? I dont think so.

  • lmao wtf potvin didn't expect that lol he was just standing there

  • sweet fight

  • If Hextall didn't play hockey (as shit as he was) he'd be an axe murderer.

  • @jerkweedhank That's great jerkweed, thanks for sharing, you little troll. I am especially impressed with your racist comment.

  • @jerkweedhank

    go die pls. bye

  • hextall is a fucking beast. i wish there was a modern day him lol! that would be classic!

  • Hextall is my hero. Not for the saves he made, but for the fights, penalties, and his scoring ability. Two goals

  • Hextall is my hero. Not for the saves he made, but for the fights, penalties, and his scoring ability. First goalie to score an NHL goal

  • i would give anything to watch that Leafs' roster play again.

  • wow, by compubox punch stats... hextall sure did miss a lot! Good riddance.

  • Hextall... What a douchebag.

  • Jesus Christ Hextall is such a beaut

  • Hextall kept swinging but I think Potvin surprised everyone for not only hanging in this fight, but ripping open Hextall's head with blood. Hextall was known as a cheap shot who thought he was a tough guy yet always got his ass handed to him.

  • @mrsal74

    Scoring a goal while you're in net, is not a cheapshot move , but a practical approach to hockey. Most goalies don't have that kind of mindset or miscalculate their ability to shoot the puck at such great distances at the opposing team's net.

  • FUCK YEAHH i remember the last goalie fight biron vs emery this game was so incredibly...BALLSSSS and after biron take on peters that was crazyy

  • It was because hextall's sweater got pulled over his head. Aint no fair fight. Have both of them in a cage and go at it. Hextall will win .

  • @vezina808 they are in a cage. a huge cage made of glass and ice.

  • I remember that fight....if I recall that was Potvin's first fight since he was in the minors. He gave Hextall a few licks. You don't see it but Hextall's face is bleeding badly. Tie Domi was chirping at Hextall after the fight about all the blood pourong out of face!!! LOL!!! One of the Greatest goalie fights I've ever seen!!! Gotta love Hextall, he always put on a show!!!!

  • @dingo7blue

    what year did this take place?

  • hextall is my hero. he fights for all the goalies who dont have the guts to do it.

  • @traxxasrustler1 he never had guts to fight players, just cheap shot them. I would have loved to see a player just whip is ass.

  • @BradyMVP66 ha ha. i guess ur right but hes still fun to watch.

  • @traxxasrustler1 hextall didn't have the guts to do it either, he would cheap shot guys from behind and then hide behind his defenseman, and the one time he actually fought someone (this video) he got his ass beat. he's a grade A asshole who blew himself up as a tough guy but never actually stood up for himself

  • @flagatorsrock8 its still funy to watch.btw he could beat the shit out of you so shut the hell up

  • damn he can move in that gear

  • AWESOME VIDEO 2 GREAT GOALIES!

  • lol ron hextall "ooo fight! my time to shine!!" lol ron is a beast

  • Hextall is awesome, the best there is. Atleast he started a fun fight to watch (:

  • U guys are all retarded.

  • @Condor12620 I agree with yo

  • I'm a Hextall fan and can admitt that Hextall got his ass kicked....and to be honest, it wasn't even close. If all you can count was "1 lucky shot", then you're either bias or blind. The Philly commentating was embarrassing and if it truly was the best fight of the year (which I wouldn't argue against), it was accompanied by the worst play-call of a broadcaster(s). Potvin beat his ASS!!!

  • @carts29

    At least he didn't remove his own mask , but Potivn's mask instead.

    P.S It takes a bit of skill to actually fist fight on slippery ice though.

  • @carts29 your blind buddy it was dead even at best!.when hextall got his arm free he clocked potvin at least 4 good ones in back of the head,yeah he was cut but to say he got his ass beat is pure bullshit

  • @carts29 dude, hextall got almost 30 punches off. Beat his ass??? you need new specks dude

  • @carts29 what the hell are you talkin about? Potvin just barely held on!!!! Hextall beat the shit out of Potvin!!!!

  • hextall pummelled potvins fists with his face.

  • @appistappis wow! that's exactly what I said! that's crazy. :D

  • @carts29 Not sure what fight you were watching, because I don't see where "Potvin beat his ASS!!!"

  • Yo llama. Ok so potvin got in 1 lucky punch. Big whoop. Oh and by the way, um NOT drunk cuz I'm only 14.

  • @cindyns1 wtf are you talking about we don't like international hockey more than national hockey league

  • i stated i hate hockey as so many Canadians do now, we prefer International hockey and if you read this from the newspapers In Toronto, supposedly the home of the looniest of the hockey-loony, youth support for pro hockey was conspicuously lower than in any of Canada's six NHL cities: 20 per cent of teens follow hockey compared to 34 per cent in Edmonton, 41 per cent in Ottawa-Gatineau, 44 per cent in Vancouver, 45 per cent in Montreal and 48 per cent in Calgary.

  • I think you're drinking the same kool-aid as that Condor kid........and I think when you say "we", you mean all of the soccer-moms of Canada, not Canadians in general. If "we" prefer Interantional hockey, why were the rating for this year's Spangler Cup so poor??? Ranked right up there darts and lawn-bowling.....but you know, the ratings for Hockey Night In Canada are awful too (yes, that was sarcasim).

  • Because Toronto is so multicultural and multi-sports! You got kids from different ethnic background who doesn't necessarily appreciate hockey as the dominating sport in their lives, that's why, nothing "conspicuous".

  • Ok whoever made this video and said that frickin potvin beat hexy need to get their fuckin eyes checked.

  • @Condor12620 are you drunk? Hextall was squirting blood while Potvin was fine... and these moron commentators are Philly homers

  • dont fuck with hexstall hell kick ur ass

  • god if i was a goalie i would NEVER fight hextall

  • now, being a Penguins fan, i HATE the Flyers. However, Ron Hextall is probably one of my favorite goaltenders EVER

  • He revolutionized the art of goaltending! LOL

    I think that is why goal crease is now painted blue. They call it the Hexstall zone! "Stay outta my Hayouse beeches"

  • lol hextall is nuts

  • possibly the greatest goalie fight ever

  • Damn, man. Hextall was ready to beat some ass. He almost clotheslined the other goalie!

  • how come we dont see hockey like this anymore?

  • The NHL has been pussified by Bettman and Crosby.

  • because nhl doenst like anyone geting hurt and have to clean up after the mess

  • cause the americans are sanitizing it cause apparently the American audience doesn't want it? They awnt it to be another clean sport like Basketball or Football or some such.

    I don't think they'r reasoning is sound. I just think they're a bunch of idiots running it. Plenty of americans like fighting. Just stop trying to sell it to college ball nuts and we'll get this back.

  • Football....clean sport....... riiiight

  • two beauty goaltenders

  • You don't beat up ron hextall, you can tie but never ever win. Ron is the Chuck Norris of hockey.

  • @gosioux13 Behind his beard is another blocker.

  • Potvin  kicked butt. Period...

  • Potvin kinda won..... the whole Hextall bleeding from the head really kinda gave him the loss...... ooops

  • Potvin won this one. lol

  • Usually when you undress your opponent and open up a nice cut on his face (and manage to stay standing as well), it's a given that you won the fight.

  • Comment removed

  • POTVIN CLEARLLY WON

  • Clearly ?

  • YEA

  • HAHAHA stupid Announcers, Stupid Hextall, Stupid Flyers fans, Stupid Americans.

    GO LEAFS GO

  • Lets see, this comment consisted of nothing more than ignorance, ignorance, ignorance, and oh yeah, ignorance.

    And people say Americans are arrogant. You sir, are arrogant, ignorant, disrespectful. Now please, do us all a favor, and shut your mouth.

    Thank you and have a nice day

  • HAHA

  • Is that all you have to say back? You really must be dumber than you look.

  • how can i be dumber then i look if you dont know what i look like?

    And the reason i laugh is because americans are notoriously ignorant and stupid. of course not all of them, but the dumbest ones tend to be highly visable and appear to revel in/ be proud of their ignorance.

    and these announcers are a wonderful example.

  • They're just doing their jobs by making it enthusiastic and exciting. Hockey sucks with out enthusiastic broadcasters

  • only an american would say that.

    thats why they used to have the glowing puck in the states, because they dont understand hockey.

    for a long time i have put hockey on mute and watched in silence because the announcers 1) are extremely biased 2) are full of shit.

    so it makes sense that you like them.

  • Not all announcers are biased. Garry Thorne and Bill Clemente were some of the most unbiased announcers that were around, that is until ESPN stopped showing hockey. I hate NBC and Versus announcers. The CBC announcers are better. and Fox never should have had hockey. they are a redneck market that shows nothing but racing and baseball. I don't need a glow puck at all. i've been a hockey fan for as long as i can remember. I just don't like your disrespect

  • Hextall ftw

    altho potvins the only leafs goalie worth anything in a while

    Leafs suck

  • Potvin was like "WTF???"

  • anyone calling himself birthdayboy187 is clearly a pussy...

    go watch some soccer

  • ? because Potvin won the fight?

    Notice Hextall is the one bleeding.

    That said i wish Hextall was around to beat some sense into Emery.

  • OLD  TIME HOCKEY!!!

    the exact reason why the flyers haven't won a stanley cup since 1975

  • I remember seeing this on TV

    Hextall lost and he actually got a cut above his eye and he was bleeding. This camera view blocks it out. This is the American broadcast, check the Canadian one out if you can find it.

  • learn to spell hillbilly ...that makes you the dumbfuck illiterate

  • hextall may have won, but it was a good fight, and good effort by potvin

  • he was a badass

  • He wasent asking if he wanted to fight, soon as the slash happened, that might as well been the round bell ringing, woulda liked to see the massicre it would have been if felix and ron were the same age! (hex being about 10 years younger)

  • I'm sure Hextall was skating at 70 miles and hour, lol

  • Ahhhh! Good ol' times!

  • that's a draw imo...nobody went down, yea hextall was cut but that doesn't mean anything really, he got some good shots in there

  • OLD TIME HOCKEY!
