Its not beutiful and very unswedish. He is a US citizen these days, but plays like a typical hillbilly from Ontario. Whats the difference between good old Ulfie and Phil Esposito?
@husseochdoggen Esposito was a great canadian hockey player with a lot of heart. Ulf is the exact opposite.... "typical hillbilly from Ontario" ?? The BEST and most nhl hockey players come from Ontario.
@tjackson76 Esposito was an unproffessional dick. Refusing interviews with swedish media? I bet if he didnt play hockey he would be a cleaner of public toilets.
People tend to forget that about Ulf. I'll never defend his actions, even when he was a Ranger, and I was a Rangers fan, I wasn't thrilled to have him. But he was not a marginal player. He was a solid defenseman.
@mofoshit72 ya, they're famous hockey personalities, one's a coach, the other has had a movie made about him...... yet, you're sitting on your computer talking about them thinking you're better then them... you're either jealous or need a better education.
@mofoshit72 For a retard, Don Cherry sure has made a fuckload of money doing something he loves, essentially answering to no one (since he doesn't seem to care what the producers think he should or shouldn't say)... Not to mention he's had an incredibly positive impact on Canadian communities with his charity work, time and money. Not bad for a drop-out. Just cuz someone's not educated doesn't make them a retard.
@17MJG93 That's not the point, it's just his point of view towards hockey. Ok it doesn't make him a retard but his POV is way off and he is like the supreme knowledge for english canadians and he shouldn't be
@mofoshit72 Well, once again, for a guy who's point of view is "way off", the NHL certainly seems to like his ideas. Just look at his track record- with the exception of things like the instigator rule, or no touch icings, just about every suggestion he's made gets put into the game a year or two later.
...how can anyone defend ulf... how the guy threw cheap shots left and right ended guys careers with cheap knee shots and then hit behing a suit of armor. and a giant winsheild to cover his face. ya good character guy.
@sealteamplankowner86 I agree. Even when you watch the videos of people throwing cheapshots back at him, his teammates don't try very hard to defend him. some of them kinda give the attacker a shove, but that's about it lol.
@TheRedSphinx "Nuff said" - exactly, 2 cups, thats all this cheap shot artist will ever earn. Will he ever win coach of the year, like Cherry? no, Will he ever have his own segment on the longest running and most watched hockey show? no. Will he ever have a movie made about him, like Cherry? no.... i could keep going.....
Well, some people liked him I guess (including 99) with his record of; 2 Stanley Cups, a member of the Penguins All-Time Team! Nicknamed "Robocop" regarded as one of the "hardest hitters in the NHL"! Associate Coach for the Coyotes together with the Great One as Head Coach... Man, this is gonna start a lot of shit, and I fking love it ;) Btw. Ulf did did not injure Neely with his knee. Neely tried to hit Ulf later in the game but missed him and hurt himself! Thank you Chicago, and good night!
When I played hockey we had a team motto it was, " If we can't beat'em then beat'em". But it was man to man toe to toe none of that cheapshot crap unless you needed to return the favor.
I just loved it when Ulfie (or any other Euro) did stuff to piss off Grapes. It's unfortunate that Ulfie ended careers, or seriously injured other players. I just love seeing Grapes riled up. Nobody did that better than Ulfie Samuelsson!
I would have liked to have seen Ulf try some of those cheapshots when O'Reilly, Wensink, Jonathan or Cashman was still playing for the Bruins. Wait a minute, Ulfie would have been in an ICU ( Intensive Care Unit) for a couple of years. Glad to see the "improved" NHL where guys like him and Claude Lemieux were allowed to flourish and end the careers of all stars.
You know, I've always had a thing for the goons, I like the tough guys and the shit disturbers, but Ulf Samuelsson was a cancer on the league and the sport.
@superrichardlg - Why is Don Cherry a moron?? He's trying to change the game so its safer. He has some pretty smart ideas if you ask me, more prople should be listening to him..... do you even watch hockey????
Read the rest of my posts. Don Cherry is bang on in this instance. I think he's an idiot because he'll also comment on things he doesn't know about ei western conferance. And tjackson76 this video is probably about 13 years old. Cherry isn't able to focus on the whole NHL anymore. If you want to know about the Leafs or eastern conferance events he's good. When he comments on stuff out west he's going off second hand info or he didn't see the whole game, yet he'll still comment
How can you say he is trying to make the sport safer? He's thinks visors are silly, thinks fighting and hitting is all the sport is about! Tell me how that's making it safer?
@todanp Don cherry has reinforced hockey equiptment to make it safer. He teaches kids the proper way to hit. He wants to change to no touch icing. And yes, visors are silly, especially if your're gonna fight with one on, the other player can injure his hand on it. That is how he is making hockey safer, any more questions?
So the amount of injuries to the hand from fighting people with visors on is relative to how you can loose your vision? And what? Have more equipment and teach to hit properly so you can hit more often and turn it into a goddamn mosh pit? Fighting your opponent in anything but fighting sports is generally considered un-sportmans like. But for some reason the childish indignation of an off balanced shirt tugging spaghetti bomb match is a good part of the sport? Just watch a bar fight.
Wow Cherry was just at much of an obnoxious idiot back then as he is now...to make matters worse now he's going a bit senile and can't remember one commercial break from the next...
How is he obnoxious? Ulf is a piece of shit. and all of what he's saying is spot on. even today about the Cooke hit, he's right, and about changing hockey equipment oh and also no touch icing.... i think more people should be listening to what Don Cherry says.
Don Cherry hates all europeans... He thinks Hockey is about fighting and crushing people up against the boards.. Just because Europe has a lot of technical players he gets pissed due to the fact the europe is better.
Europe is better? There are some great European hockey players. But the point of this video was to show what a scumbag Samuelsson was. Sure he was a talented player, but he deliberatley tried to injure people. That's what I don't think Europeans get. There is playing tough and doing what you can to win ethically, including fighting, and then there is trying to take people out through injury. There is many dirt North American players as well, Bobby Clark, Bryan Marchment, and
Claude Lemeiux just to name a few.Someone gets injured on a fluke that happens, if 2 people agree to fight and 1 gets injured oh well that's the risk involved. Hurting players that aren't able to defend themselves has nothing to do with toughness and that's what Ulfie was all about. Driving your knee into someone else's because ur scared of full contact, slashing someone in the face, and hitting from behind has no place in tough clean hockey. I don't think u get this. Never played hockey before?
I would have loved to see somebody end Ulf's career. He deserved it for ending the careers of Neely and Mondue with his dirty plays. Our "wild wild west mentality" of players backing up their dirty actions by fighting is much better than your mentality of them being able to make dirty plays and never have to pay for it. You want penalties and misconducts instead of fights and retalitations? Than the league should have kicked Ulf out.
Don was right! Tie Domi really took it to that asshole Samuelsson with one left hand! Brad May also knocked out Ulfie as well. Its too bad that he wasn't hurt seriously enough so that he couldn't play like Mondu.
but put watch?v=OTH26jyZ6Q8 in your browser from ulf's rookie season but before he mondued mondue and you ll hear a different story at the end from bob cole...see don cherry didn't always hate visored players he just learned to associate them with claude and ulf is all
