  • There's so many other things Mcsorley coulda done to get Brashear's attention but whacking him over the head like that is just pussy to me. Being a Kings fan all my life I loved Mcsorely's toughness but this is just way over the line. If anything spear the guy but to club him like that...I don't know why the whole bench didn't clear and go after him.

  • Mcsorley should have been given jail time coupled with probation. I am glad he never was able to play again.

  • i show this to bruins fans who claim that their team is clean

  • Bruins have been dirty players for years... Check out 'the ironing is delicious'

  • people tend to forget brashear injured the boston netminder he also avoided mcosrley for a second fight (he previously beat marty) and he flexed his muscles and taunted the boston bench. mcsorley had enough he really wanted to kill him. no excuse there mcsorley is just a beast. thats all in tough guy from proberts bio

  • 4:56, stupidest comment by a commentator ever. he was clearly going for the head.

  • Next time I'm in Hermosa Beach I'm buying McSorley a beer.

  • looks like his last name is "Drunken" at 4:39

  • The Bruins have been beating on the Canucks in one form or another for quite some time :)

    GO MCSORELY!! LA still loves you!!

  • lol mcsorely's explanation was "just tappin to let him know i wanna fight'. lmao

  • brashear is a loser. he had it coming from mcsorely.

  • pause at 5:02 ... why is there 2 pucks out there?

  • Anyone else see the random 2nd puck sliding down the ice

  • that looked clean to me?

  • brashear would have got clocked bad. by dave brown if he played earlier

  • @Vinnie7683 he is no pussy? thats why he uses his stick to attack his opponent when he gets owned in the fight. of course he is the toughest player in nhl

  • @Vinnie7683 you are a fuckterd if he slashed you in the head you would want him suspended indefinitley, you have no soul do you, he should have been jailed for a while just to send the message out that if you use your stick as a weapon you are punishable under the criminal code, id hit you if you were right infront of me just to smack some sense into you biaattcchh, pussy!!!!!!!!!!

  • @freeworld420soldier apparently a member of public reported assault with a deadly weapon, and mcsorley was escorted to the police station soon after. im not sure if he was accompanied by a solicitor

  • mcsorely is mcsore loser. and garth snow is the fuckin man. no players went after him, but the goalie did. you can always count on garth to lay it own

  • its too bad he woke up.

  • i remember mcsorley stating afterwards that he tried to hit brashear's shoulder - true or not it simply shows that things can get out of hand and become very ugly...speaking of very ugly, how in the hell did someone a couple of comments down below manage to turn this into something filled with hateful racial remarks? i cannot believe that someone would hate on brashear (whether you like him or not as a player) in the context of this video? if anyone deserves negative comments here, it's marty..

  • @rollerhockeygoalie

    sorry i missed those, but they're deleted now

  • that commentator is a god damn retard

  • @snakesinahouseparty I like Steve McNair, Anthony Wright, PK Subban - need I go on? I'm attacking an individual here, not a member of some group.

  • im sad he played for the bruins what a loser ...take ur ass whuppin like a man

  • mcorsleys a dick

  • Brashear didn't realize McSorley is a lunatic.

  • Haha, "was probably trying to tap his shoulder." Bah..

  • What injuries did brashear get?

  • @08chazman08 Brashear briefly lost consciousness, and had a concussion and memory lapses. He returned to play after several weeks and fully recovered. Brashear stated he had no memory of the event. McSorley was later charged and found guilty of assault for this incident, though served no jail time. After the conviction, McSorley was suspended for an entire year. He never played another game in the NHL.

  • @dshine360 you haven't seen anyone patrick go back to the kids table the adults are talking

  • the only good thing that gareth snow did in his carrier

  • this is the way it is...snow was a joke as a goalie and a bigger joke as a gm islanders are the laughing stock of the nhl.brashear did this very same thing to another player that year and was suspended for it.and wasn't it a canuck (bertuzzi)that ended steve moores career with a cheapshot?this is karma catching up with him.and yes Boston does have the Stanley Cup because you suck.

  • @bigpoppa2112 u are the biggest fucking retard i've seen on youtube

  • @TheRuger4real

    the sedins are swedish, and go look at the bruins roster, 90 percent canadian, get your facts straight genius.

  • Is it McSorley or McSoreLoser?

  • The Canucks sucked then, they suck now and im pretty sure in the year 2011 u dont have the stanley cup... hmmm i wonder were the cup went oo thats right BOSTON... thats what u get for filling ur entire team with souless canadian gingers..

  • @TheRuger4real

    well, the gingers aren't actually canadian... they're swedes... just saying

  • @TheRuger4real

    Those guys are swedes..btw the Bruins are full of canadians. Americans dont win shit when it comes to hockey, try and remember that at all times.

  • @Mark1379

    Or maybe we should remember that everyone comes to America to play. You Canadians and your pride. Maybe next season you can riot over a stanley cup loss?

  • @Mark1379 you never heard of brian leetch modano?

  • @Mark1379 haha the b's best player is from michigan, and the nucks have yanks on their team. fuckin idiot

  • @MrSbarrett13 thats only tim thomas, all of their top forwards are canadian except krejci

  • dude what the fuck are you talking about matt cookes a scumbag

  • I've always have respect for Garth Snow for coming in for brashear while he laid on the ice.

  • It don't mather who the F** you are!!! that was life ban situation. anyone that uses a hockey stick to hit ppl in the head or in any way to intent to hurt should never be allowed to play in any hockey league.

  • @BlackHawksSuckDick Brasher had it coming - nobody can claim otherwise and be telling the truth.

  • @STP43FAN1 fuck you

  • @coviron21 Don't mouth off at me, reexamine your opinions before you mouth off.

  • @STP43FAN1 whatever dude youre wrong

  • @STP43FAN1 your a sad fuck, there is no exuse in our entire world to defent what the coward mcsorley did to brasher, but id guess your the same type as him then in fights, hit from behind cause you cant fight like a man, its realy funny that you bitch of to someone and tell them to "reexamine your opinions before you mouth off" you should take your own advice you sorry exuse for a life.

  • @noc1891 I just tell the truth. Brasher deserved it. Reexamine your opinions before you spout off like a spoiled child. I'm right, you're not, so leave the conversation to us adults.

  • @STP43FAN1 you're wrong

  • @Thorpedo2008 No I;'m not. The facts show I'm not. How about reexamining your opinions?

  • @noc1891 And BTW you sad fuck this same Canucks team is as dirty now as they were then - and they're going to die of their own dirty play.

  • @STP43FAN1 Actually, no one deserves a stick upside the head.. if you got beat up by someone in a fist fight, and you wanted to use a stick, and feel that retaliating with a stick is right, then you're a pussy. I guess it would be safe to say that if Brashear would have retaliated with bullets to the back of McSorley's head, then it would be fair, as he would have had it coming, right?

  • @JGmartinezJr The hell no one deserves a stick in the head - when you're a bully you desrerve it, and worse.

  • only sick people defend McSorley. They don't deserve to live

  • @JGmartinezJr Brasher had to be blasted so savagely it would destroy any ability from him to bully anyone else - that's why McSorley was right. McSorley gave Brasher what he deserved.

    There's nothing wrong with me - what is wrong with you?

  • Its great anytime someone chops a diving Nuck. Burrows alone gave them home ice in these finals, with his diving and whining all year. Bieska called out his own teammates for being diving pussies - so it's no longer opinion but fact they flop all over the place. Fuck you, Vancouver.

    Vancouver. Flopping their way to a Stanley Cup.

  • go blackman this is what u are good at yah

  • We now of course know Brasher had it coming and got what he deserved. People owe McSorley an apology.

  • @STP43FAN1 Says who? What exactly did Brashear do to have it coming? i can tell you this.. what he did isn't nearly as bad as what that COWARD McSoreley did.

  • @JGmartinezJr Brasher started the whole thing and McSorley finished it. You want cowardice go to Brasher.

  • @STP43FAN1 So because Brashear started it, that made it OK for McSorley to go upside dude's head and possibly kill the guy? What is wrong with you? 

  • @JGmartinezJr Nothing is wrong with me. What;s wrong with you? Instigation ALWAYS justifies retaliation like McSorley. Brasher got what he deserved - what is there in this fact you don't want to accept? That Brasher got clubbed? The hell with him - if he didn't want to get hurt he should have backed off.

  • @STP43FAN1 Yes, what is wrong with you that you think hitting a guy over his head with a freakin' STICK instead of just punching the guy like they always would do? Sounds to me like you would have rejoiced had McSorley killed the guy with your responses. Getting your ass kicked in a fight DOES NOT JUSTIFY nearly being decapitated with a damn stick. That's COWARDLY, that's bullshit.

  • a pathetic ending to an entertaining brawler. what a way to throw your legacy right into the dumpster.

  • fuck the bruins

  • what a bitch

  • No, he didn't spend 18 months in jail. You're fucking stupid. Look it up. Probation isn't jail you fucking critter

  • Comment removed

  • time line, brashear starts to become a good enforcer and around 96, runs into mcsorley when he played for the rangers for a couple of months, this rivalry continues when mcsorley plays for sharks, this game vancouver destroys the bruins, brashear beats mcsorley, mocks the bruins bench, injures bruins goalie by falling on him, mcsorley dosent like it, takes brashear out with his stick.

  • Im GLAD Mcsorley got jail time for this!

  • @GSPinvincible007

    You're dumb because McSorley didn't get any jail time for this.

  • @MiracleFruitClock Im pretty sure your dumb because he got 18 months in jail and a 23 game suspension

  • @GSPinvincible007 No, he didn't. I don't know where you are going with this "I'm just going to refute facts" attitude because if you would do a little bit of fucking research you would find out that he didn't serve ANY jail time. 18 months PROBATION is NOT time spent in jail. Because he didn't spend any time in a fucking jail.

  • @MiracleFruitClock except for the 18 months he spent in jail

  • Go mcsorley He desevred it

  • Brash got better as he got older.

  • Mcsorley was arrested after this !! the dude is a douche lord!

  • he was just trying to tap him on the shoulder!

  • Look into his eyes he didn't get the nick name "McStupid" for nothing.

  • That pisses me off. Extremely uncalled for.

  • no shit...4:46...."shoulder"? ummmmmmmmmm  NO!

  • IF THEY EVER TAKEAWAY FIGHTING FROM HOCKEY THEY LOST A FAN.

  • bahahaha look who was there too that dirtcock cooke

  • What a bitch move

  • I hate that fuckin guy so much go play basketball

  • It took the Canucks long enough to go after McSorley, it took the goalie to go after the bitch.

  • Boston's announcers have always been among the dimmest callers ever and it doesn't matter what combo you're speaking of. Being stuck here in the new England area, I am stuck listening to them more than I care to. They are absolutely out of their minds.

  • Who the f*ck is commentating? The f*ckhead is trying to defend Mcsorleys behavior.

  • @Skrangelben Gerry Cheevers, i believe. And it would figure.

  • @Skrangelben Being stuck in New England hell, I've come to expect this kind of inane blather from the Bruins announcers. Regardless of who they are.

  • @stevedrums They're better than anything you've ever preferred.

  • @Skrangelben Because McSorley is right. That's not an opinion, that's a fact.  Brasher had it coming.

  • @Skrangelben probably Jack Edwards

  • @Skrangelben those are nucks commentator

  • @Skrangelben Yeah seriously. Tap him in the shoulder my ass. That should have been a match penalty. Total intent to injure.

  • @Skrangelben how exactly is he protecting mc sorley. he calling it as he sees it

  • Two things:

    1 - A game featuring McSorley, Brashear, Brad May, Matt Cooke, and Hal Gill is gonna get intense.

    2 - 2:41 - R.I.P. Pat Burns

  • @bernier42 Hal Gill is a pussy....always has been, always will be.

  • Marty a G meng

  • Thats the first time I've ever seen Markus Naslund drop his gloves 3:45

  • @14Jerad

    prob the last time you"ll see it as well!

  • Can't handle getting his ass handed to him by the superior Brashear, so he hits him with his stick... McSorley's a PUSSY for doing that.

  • @JGmartinezJr

    Just a bad lapse in judgment brash is a dirty turd anyway

  • @JGmartinezJr "superior brashear" is where you lost all your credibility

  • @TheDaFrazz Marty, is that you?

  • @JGmartinezJr Brasher had it coming. Period.

  • @STP43FAN1 HOW? Did Brashear go upside McSourpuss's head with a stick? Or did he just kick his ass? NO ONE deserves a stick to the head, that's come cowardly bullshit!

  • @JGmartinezJr Brasher got what he deserved. McSorley merely did the right thing.

  • @JGmartinezJr McSorleys tougher then Donald Brasher the pussy ass bald bitch... McSorley was also Gretzkys bodyguard so dont fuck around kid you dont know what you are talking about

  • @ank0u2 McSorley's still a pussy for doing that shit.. you fight using fists, you answer back with fists, you DON'T fucking try to damn near decapitate your opponent, there is a code in sports, fuckstick.. go away junior YOU are the one who doesn't know what the fuck they're talking about

  • @ank0u2 yes. when you get viciously assaulted with a weapon i would hope that you are left to rot.

  • @phucniggaz what a moron... go back to live in your cavern, retarded

  • @phucniggaz Hey, Mr. racist, do you think (being that you are white, I assume) that *you* are more fit to play in the NHL than Mr. Brashear? Do you have any idea how many people (of *any* colour) have worked their asses off trying to make the NHL but never played a game? This guy scored 85 goals at the NHL level. I guess you could do that in your sleep because you're white, eh?

  • Cheap shot Marty Mcsorley is a punk bitch for that one.

  • 13 people approved of what McSorley did.

  • He was sick of Brashear beating his ass lol Mcsorleys a puss

  • canucks are going to win the stanley cup this year.......... LETS GO CANUCKS!!!!!!!!

  • McSorly was such a D bag. This is by no means the only example of his cheap shot tactics.

  • Does that Ahole announcer actually say "I think Marty, in all fairness, was trying to tap him on the shoulder" Is that guy McSorley's dad or something, I mean, come on, in all fairness McSorley's a hack. Get some skills and you won't have to slash guys in the head.

  • "The ugly part of this is what's being thrown on the ice". Yes, fans throwing stuff on the ice is much, much worse than Brashear being knocked unconscious by a stick to the face. Where do they get these commentators from?

  • Pathetic move by McSorley. You can permanently injure someone like that. The guy has no place in organized sports.

  • @d00m3M4st3r Nope, didn't miss it at all. You probably missed the fact that the NHL thought it deserving of the biggest fine ever handed down, and the longest suspension ever too huh? Dipshit...

  • @d00m3M4st3r All the articles I read about the incident stated that such an injury could have ended Brashear's life. He suffered a severe concussion, a seizure on the ice, and the blow was so severe, that the law got involved sentencing McSorley to 18 months of probation. You must be a moron (i.e. a Boston sports fan) because you're making assumptions about someone you don't know. I actually hate the Canucks, and like the Bruins, but clearly you don't let facts get in the way of your opinion...

  • @AshyKnucks haha you called yourself a moron. You said "you must be a moron (i.e a Boston sports fan)" then you said you like the bruins, which makes you a boston sports fan. You are dumb dude

  • @Pooper88x Nope, wrong asshole... I said I "like" the Bruins, not that I'm a "Bruins fan." A nuance your dumb ass is likely unable to realize. That means I'll enjoy a Bruins game from time to time, not that they're my favorite team by any stretch... Also, if you lived in New England, you'd know what a "Boston sports fan" is. It's pretty much a code word for major asshole.

  • @AshyKnucks Well i "like" popcorn, im a "fan" of popcorn, but it's not my "favorite" snack. Plus i live in Mass. and if you live in new england and feel that way, maybe you should move because real new england sports fans don't want you here.

  • @d00m3M4st3r So Brashear deserved to nearly die? You're clearly an asshole too. Brashear was an awesome heel. So much so, that people wanted to hit him over the head with a stick. He knew his role, and he was also a great fighter, better than McSorley and many others... At least he would actually fight, unlike Ulfey. And he didn't specialize in the cheap shot either. This was one of hockey's darkest moments.

  • shoulder?? he was going all face on that one

  • One of the worst moments in NHL history. No matter how good of an enforcer he was, McSorley's career will always be remembered for this. What an asshole... Oh, and what an asshole the announcer is for suggesting he was trying to "tap" Brashear on the shoulder...

  • McSorley was a great enforcer, but this one stupid moment is what people will remember him for. Kind of a shame, but he had to accept the consequences for his actions. (And no, Mr. Announcer, McSorley wasn't trying to "tap him on the shoulder." Come on.)

  • what a cheap shot...does ne body know what kind of punishment was handed down...probably nothing but can u imagin if that happened 2day the person would never play again

  • @bergaflickal This was Marty's last NHL game. He was officially suspended for a full year, but he was too radioactive for anyone to give him another shot, and was basically forced to retire. It's too bad too. Yes, this was an awful incident, and I can't really argue against his banning, but Marty was a stand-up guy. I'm sure most will only remember him for this incident, but I also remember him sticking up for his teammates and for his brilliant assist on Gretzky's record breaking 802nd goal.

  • eric cairns owned every fights against brashear

  • If this asshole were on my team I'd watch the other guys beat the shit outta him.

  • tap on the shoulder??????

  • Obviously, I am not justifying this action, however just realise how enforces would feel after getting in a fight, after that seeing your opponent starts to dust off the hands and in the final period you challenge again him and the another one refuses it.

  • True, McSorley´s action was not fair, anyway, sometimes it is important to analyse how things happen. He had nothing to show to anybody, McSorley faced the most feared enforces along the 80´s and 90´s, even in his final seasons (36-37 years old). Some Brashear´s actions in the ice (dust off the hands, cheap shots, etc) have brought responses. Actions like this, responses like that.

  • there was only 2.7 sec to go before the end of the game... was a stupid and vicious play... fortunatelly vancouver's players ran after him... what a freaking pussy mcsorley is

  • I remember they were gonna arrest him after the game , should have what a piece of white trash ...fucking mcsorley , he sucked as player

  • oh bullshit "i think in all honesty marty was trying to tap him on the shoulder" you would have to be blind to miss his shoulder like that. he is a proffesional and needs to be professional with his stick. he is a f**king thug

  • mcsorley is a fkn thug

  • mcsorley is a fucking thug

  • lol Garth Snow

  • Finnaly somebody nailed brashear stupid thug

  • @alexmcgillivray12345

    Sad thing is that its a fucking cheap shot. Brashear kicked his fucking ass in a fair fight and Mcsorley being the fucking pussy that he his needed to get his dignity back.... OWAIT he lost it all with that fucking shit... hope the mother fucker gets kurbstomped

  • @alexmcgillivray12345 uhhh no. fighting is one thing, but slapping somebody in the face with a stick. that's fucked up. mcsorley's the thug.

  • hahahahahahahaahahahahahahahaa­haha

  • lol 2 pucks at 2:55

  • Comment removed

  • these commentators are retarded

  • @TaInTeDlYnX shut up, brash was one of the best heaveyweight enforcers in the whole nhl history! brash beat mcsorley everytime!!!

  • Probably not the brightest career move, but...

  • Only thing worse than the cheap shot was the lame guy trying to justify it And you wonder why hockey is considered the joke of pro sports

  • I think this was wose than the Bertuzzi Moore incident. Moore got what he deserved cause he was getting to gain a reputation for being a cheap shot artist having viciously crosschecked Lecavalier that season as well.Tortorella stated it was a brutal cross check. The heel is the hardest part of the stick and McSorely knew exactly what he was doing when this occurred! Could have killed Brashear! Even the Vancouver cops charged him with an assault with a weapon charge. Rightfully so!

  • Mcsorley was a beast but a big ass rasict in la he always fought with other races

    Even though he was a bad ass this wasn't cool at all

    Poor guy

    I know this was a long time ago but still I'm kinda glad the other team tryed to kick his ass I would too

  • Didn't Brashear injure the B's goaltender in that same game?

  • what a bitch...i woulda got up and shoved that stick up his fuckin ass. didnt seem that hard of a hit but he didnt expect it...i thought he was gonna get up and throw some bows after that...looked like he was out cold

  • Didn't Marty get charged criminally for the cheap shot?

  • Comment removed

  • If brasher would have just fought him again that wouldn't happen, he is supposed to be a tough guy SHOW UP when challenged. And if that shot concussed him his helmet is no good.

    If someone want to fight you....you drop them or your bench will and should shame you.

    brashear has NO class he didn't beat marty bad but the the way he was strutting you would have thought he KO'ed him.

    if a guy wants a rematch ...its hockey code you don't back down period!

  • @Edmian14

    I agree, Brashear broke the code by showing McSorley up, but Marty shouldn't have two handed him in the head. I realize Marty states that he was going for his shoulder, but he didn't hit the shoulder. Marty being the "class act" he was at the 4:33 mark gives a "eh, shit happens" look. That's also disgraceful to the code.

  • @ChiHawks24 stfu about "the code". there is no fuckn code when you whoop some cocksuckers ass in your building. showin guys up after kickin their ass has been in place forever. doesn't give you a free pass to play baseball with a guys fuckn head.

  • @bobby3424 If you read my entire post you would see that I'm not encouraging anything that Marty did. Brashear shouldn't have showed him up after the fight. That ends the "code" discussion. Marty should never have gone for his head and that was a jagoff move on his part and is the "disgrace I was mentioning. I never stated that because Brash showed him up, Marty had the right to smack him in the head. If anything, I'm stating that Marty is the asshole and Brash didn't deserve what happened.

  • @Edmian14 your an idiot and obviously know nothing about hockey faget so stop posting like you do.

  • @GAUDET5 You mean 'you're.' Signed, the grammar police. Oh - and it's 'faggot' as well. You should really try going to 'skool.'

  • @preciselyfun i like how YOU'RE trying to correct my grammar because you know you have no idea about the sport we call hockey.

  • @GAUDET5 Nope. Nothin'. But I do know plenty about fighting. PS - You are most likely American so please refrain from commenting on OUR game.

  • @preciselyfun wow.. really, im canadian actually. anyways im just going to stop arguing with somebody that doesn't know anything about OUR game.

  • wow messier and naslund together i think its a good line is it ?

  • Eleven people are McSorley fans.

  • McSorley never played a game in the NHL after this

  • @kingmaxx

    but bertuzzi did. :)
