Alex Edler Nails Drew Doughty - Canucks Vs Kings - R1G1 2010 Playoffs - 04.15.10 - HD

[MogulMutt16]

Serves him right

[Terminus92]

fuck doughty 

[DeathMagnetic90]

Great hit! It feels like these kinds of hits will be fewer though. Not that this particular hit is illegal today, but the players won't try doing these hits anymore because of the risk of hitting the head and get a suspension. :(

[AznKid691]

beautiful :'(

[Reinpret]

how do i know i'm Canadian apart from my birth certificate you ask? Well I'm currently sitting at home, watching hockey clips on my laptop at 11:00pm. Eagerly anticipating the Canucks season opener tomorrow, with NHL 12 loading up in my 360. ya i'd say I'm Canadian.

[skaha77]

@Reinpret Edler is a bigger hitter than Neesly was :) and he is a SWEDE. Take that one to the bank, Grapes!!!! (Now you know if I am a Canadian)

[CanuckleHead1987]

atta boy Edler!!

[Cherdenkov]

I see bright futures for theese 2.

[santahchrist]

This is what we need out of Edler night in night out. He's going to be one of the highest paid D-Men in the NHL before it's all said and done.

[edyfreshh]

FUCK VANCOUVER!!!!

[RandomProductions371]

Drew Doughty:Lalalala

Alex Edler: BAMN

Drew Doughty:(falls on ice)

Alex Edler:Yay

[turtlehater2]

Nice but not edler's best. Doughty didn't even look phased!

[AWDracer]

@turtlehater2 I think it just illustrates how tough Doughty is. Great hockey moment for two very excellent players.

[liennto]

Edler owns

[joeatlus]

Beast



[LBJordan1]

YEA Edler way to go!!!!

[yablon15]

@r45eys ROFL Demitra = Bum

[r45eys]

Another great shift by Demitra.

[AlejandroYoshizawa]

When Edler doesn't play physical he is amazing... when he does he is dominant!!

[Jem93rocks]

@TheLoserSakaTheOiler ..But it wasn't, so you can continue to cry now.

[Reinpret]

Edler is an oddity.. he shows up almost out of nowhere some beer league in sweden, comes in to the NHL with a total calmness to him and veteran patience. But everyonce in a while he shows that he can shoot just north of 100MPH slapshot, and occationally likes to seriously take the body.. whats not to love?

[sebbeks]

@Reinpret It's not that unusual that 15-18 year olds play in low senior legues. Mats Sundin did the same thing.

[LMFAOeveryday]

that's my boy!

Go Canucks Go!

[CanucksCup2010]

Wow did someone say this is charging hahahahahahahahahahaha

[str8rippon]

Sick hit, Edler was a man on a mission that game.

[MrBk1111]

LOL, Edler was lucky not to injury his butt when he landed on it.

[MrBk1111]

that wasn't a huge hit, it was a collision. And Edler flew higher and further than Doughty. I do give him an A plus for style though.

[timmmy99]

isn't this charging!

[SleeCee]

@timmmy99 chargings taking 3 or more strides right into your hit

[kidman130]

Doughty sold it excellent. Good hit, but he played it off even better.

[TheYablon]

Edler is soooo underrated. If he was out East they'd be all over how good he is. He is a future Norris Trophy Nominee. Much the same as Ohlund, who quietly probably was one of the best of all time to put on a nucks jersey but didn't get nearly enough press league-wide.

[Hatchwork]

@TheYablon Agreed. Edler so underrated.

[zejono]

someone just got raped

[kasan34]

pwned

[hoolieo2]

I miss hockey :(

[Nazzylund]

Were not called The west coast express after this. Call us the WEST COAST BULLETS!

[johx88]

I watch this video for medical reasons. To decrease my hockey withdrawal symptoms. Street hockey, playstation and youtube really helps!

[sofndfkj]

@johx88 hahahaha fuck man, i just stopped playing nhl 10, now im on here looking at sweet hits and savage goals. NHL, COME BACK SOOOOOOOON!

[Pacebeats]

@sofndfkj honestly , im in the same position , its either hockey talk , or nhl 10 or watching old hockey streams , i need hockey back in my life

[RypientheBeast37]

@johx88 love it! It cant be said any better

[TheHouseofdogs1]

@johx88 i agree



[AhWibble]

Looking for Edler to step up and take the #1 post on the Canucks this year.

[Frankenpalin]

good thing Doughty pulled the chute at the last second, he would have got creamed

[SleeCee]

@Frankenpalin he did get creamed.

[Frankenpalin]

@SleeCee kind of but if you look closely, Doughty has already let the puck go and he is leaning way back when Edler makes contact. If he was over his skates with his head down, like most people do when they cut to the middle of the ice like that, he would have been hit so hard, his dog would have been retarded. He saw him coming like he always does, that's why he's so hard to hit. Awesome player

[VanIsleNuckFan]

@Frankenpalin He's lucky. 2010-2011 coming soon!

[Auzzie35]

@Frankenpalin Uh no he hasnt let go of the puck edler's stick knocks it away your obviously not looking close enough.

[Frankenpalin]

@Auzzie35 Uh no, Doughty is basically sitting down when he gets hit, he has already bailed on the puck by the time he gets hit

[DEhockey75]

Damn why can´t edler make hits like this in every game??

But it is a great hit!!!!!!!

[felonyfights89]

woah man!!!

[Morelloo1]

i liked this series much better than the blackhawks one i dont know why... it just seems more like real hockey. The second rounds goals scored within 2 feet of the net, and too much anger between the teams.

[SH7861WeezyBabyy]

@Morelloo1 I agree. First round actually felt like hockey. 2nd round was effffed up, TOO much anger.

[musicfan1972]

that is why he is my favorite defencemen on the canucks

[curojalo]

when did scott stevens come out of retirement??

[MrBarelylethal]

He's lucky he didn't get him fully, because if he did, Doughty would be out and Edler would have 5, 10, a game, and be gone. Another depletion of our d corps

[bananian]

@MrBarelylethal

uh, that was a clean hit, Edler wouldn't be out regardless.

[MrBarelylethal]

@bananian NO it would have been charging if he fully hit him.

[bananian]

@MrBarelylethal

what do you mean IF? He DID fully hit him. Doughty got trucked.

[MrBarelylethal]

@bananian he got trucked but he didn't fully hit him

[micherus10]

LA kings will never have the same fan base as the Nucks do!!!! Give it all you got boys!!!

[canuck1980]

@micherus10 never in the wildest dreams Canucks fans are fucking hardcore not bandwagon jumpers

[DoctorSlaughter]

BEAUTIFUL!

[nickyt96]

2-2 series tie heading home to the garage GO CANUCKS GO!!!!! gm place is going to be a mad house suprised how quiet staples center was, can't compare to gm place

[jasonsvw]

@nickyt96 Surprised how quiet Staples was? You don't go to many games I guess.. I went to both games 2 and 3, Staples was considerably louder than GM was. Don't know if it carried through the other games or not, but don't try to act like LA doesn't love the Kings, it makes you look like a h-o-m-e-r

[freckledklutz]

damn! I loved that hit - and you wouldn't know it since Edler looks so harmless....

[kingsrule06]

I admit the nuck's really SUCK!! running LUU out the rink!! priceless get ready to get rolled again tonight with a LOSS!! GO KINGS!!! nucks SUCK!!!

[micherus10]

@kingsrule06 Better shut your mouth now huh? :)

[Reinpret]

@kingsrule06 wow, 40 years old and making comments like a school boy? lol wow.

[impulse8686]

@kingsrule06 Where are your precious Kings now? Tee time at 9 A.M. for Doughty, Kopitar, Brown and Johnson.

[kingsrule06]

@impulse8686 No worry's we are on the UP with our young boys while you re treads will be getting worked by the blackhawks ! and getting older and shittier in the crap divison of yours!!..Better to be lucky in this game, so I'll give you that.. Get ready to tee it up late next week in that shthole icebox up there while we tee it up in sunny so cal. Go KINGS baby!

[impulse8686]

@kingsrule06 You obviously have no idea about the Canucks prospects and the Manitoba Moose, just stop while you're ahead. Did you just call Canada an icebox? Typical one dimensional American intellect at its finest. Crap division, lol...like the Pacific division is SO MUCH better! I wouldn't call the Canucks win in game 6 luck either. We clearly outplayed the Kings in the third period, were you even watching the game? You better get ready to jump back on the bandwagon next year!

[jasonsvw]

@impulse8686 Like it or not, the Pacific is the stronger division right now. Game 6 wasn't completely luck, they did outplay LA but quit acting like that's the norm and that Vancouver is just that much better lol. LA finished only 2 pts behind at the end of the year, None of the core players on LA have any playoff experience and they took your supposed almighty Canucks to 6 games, and ran Luongo out of Staples twice this year. Of course you'd say THAT was luck though, right? loser

[impulse8686]

@jasonsvw The playoffs are a different beast, sorry to burst your bubble. The Canucks were the better team in the series and they won. I never even mentioned luck my post in the context that you described it in. If you actually read my post instead of assuming what I said you would see that my argument took a different trajectory. The playoffs are all about elevating your game, something that the Canucks did and the Kings DIDN'T. Better luck next year.

[jasonsvw]

@impulse8686 My whole point is that I don't see why you guys feel the need to be arrogant like you won the Cup when it's the first round and your team was the pretty heavy favorite to win in the series anyway. Give it a year or two and when the tables turn, you guys will all disappear

[zejono]

@kingsrule06 you fucking faggot piece of shit. we worked the chicago shithawks dumbass. did you see the score . 5-1. lmfao. they really worked us you faggot.

why dont you get off the shithawks dick and start sucking your queens.

[jasonsvw]

@zejono Why so hostile hahaha, dude you're like one of those twelve year olds who says fuck in every sentence because you think it's cool... Nucks really worked Chicago tonight EH? lol .. You're a disgrace to hockey fans everywhere.

Go Kings

[zejono]

@jasonsvw Where are the queens . lol oya playing golf . you nothing about hockey you just a bunch of bandwagon fans. you guys have to be paid to show up to games

[jasonsvw]

@zejono Just the fact that you call us bandwagon fans because we don't root for your team just proves that it's you who doesn't know anything about hockey. Queens, that's probably the most original thing ever! I mean I've never heard it before.. lol. Try harder, loser.. Have fun watching your overrated goalie get lit up like usual

[zejono]

@jasonsvw lol ya you wish we will lose. where is your team. oya on the golf course.

[jasonsvw]

@zejono Did I say Vancouver would lose? They definitely lost tonight hahaha.. Let me guess, Chicago was lucky? Luongo is overrated, he's an average goalie who makes a spectacular save every once in a while. Just because you want to suck on his nuts doesn't mean hes anything special

[zejono]

@jasonsvw Who did canucks beat? oya it was LA. If Luongo is soo shity than why didnt your trash players score on him and move on to the 2nd round. Were we lucky. o well better luck next time.

[jasonsvw]

@zejono They did score on Luongo quite a bit, did you not watch the series? Both Luongo and Quick played pretty badly. Like I said Lou is an average goalie who makes the occasional highlight reel save. He plays just well enough to keep the team in it which is his job, but he isn't amazing.

[jasonsvw]

@zejono Take games 1 and 4 - game 1 Luongo played average and then made the one big save in OT off the goal line. Game 4 again played average and made two huge saves at the end of the 3rd per. he played average or sub-par for the majority of the time and made the few saves that mattered. If not for those 3 saves LA would have swept the series having already won games 2 and 3. Don't act like the Canucks are untouchable

[crowashun]

@jasonsvw but somehow luongo has gold medal. he must be shit

[jasonsvw]

@crowashun Canada was absolutely stacked front to back, they were expected to win regardless of what goalie they had. he didn't play all that great if you actually watched the games, he just kept them in it. Take any of the other goalies in that tourney, Hiller, Halak etc and they would easily have the same success playing for Canada

[zejono]

@jasonsvw they are untouchable my fat american friend.

What golf course is your team playing on?

[jasonsvw]

@zejono Assuming I'm fat because I'm American, way to be narrow minded, ignorant, and idiotic all at once :)

And actually they're playing on a much nicer golf course than the Canucks will be playing on about a week from now, I guess they can go ice fishing or something instead, since stereotypes are so cool, right?

[zejono]

@jasonsvw of course you have good golf courses because that is all you americans

play and you guys love nascar racing.

[jasonsvw]

@zejono Keep spewing your ignorant bullshit and making your fellow Canadians look stupid, I'm having fun laughing at you ;)

[zejono]

@jasonsvw you guys are soo funny. You take nascar so seriously.

[jasonsvw]

@zejono What's the problem here, man? I thought you said the Canucks were untouchable? But here they are, losing back to back again? And what do you know, Luongo is getting lit up... again..

[zejono]

@jasonsvw they are. at least they are not playing golf.:D

why is your team playing golf. because Quick is not quick enough.

[jasonsvw]

@zejono Good thing for LA they have Bernier to fall back on then eh? And obviously Luongo is not quick enough either, accept it. Too bad for you there's no one in Vancouver to replace him lol

[zejono]

@jasonsvw we have the razor dumbass. much better than bernier

[jasonsvw]

@zejono you obviously don't watch anything but Nucks games then. You really think raycroft is much better? if he had the talent to be a #1 goalie he would find himself a new job instead of warming the bench every night. The guy is a decent backup but not #1 material at all. Here's some of bernier's numbers for you

AHL 2.03 GAA, 0.936 SV%, 9 shutouts in 58 games

AHL Playoffs 1.54 GAA, 0.950 SV%, 2 shutouts in 9 games (so far)

NHL 1.30 GAA, 0.959 SV%, 1 shutout in 3 games

The guys a f'in stud

[zejono]

@jasonsvw whenevr we needed razor he made big saves and won us the game.

[jasonsvw]

@zejono That's what backups are for - "whenever we need him". as long as that whenever isn't every night. For occasional starts he plays well, but he isn't going to carry a team through a season and playoff run.

[zejono]

@jasonsvw he will play one game and then luongo in for the next. not every game

[jasonsvw]

@zejono That's my point, he can switch games on and off with the starting goalie, but Raycroft himself is not a starting goalie because he can't play the bulk of the games without going down the toilet. So there is no argument to say he's better than ANY goalie who is real starting material

[zejono]

@jasonsvw one thing is for sure. chicago fans are a bunch of faggots

[jasonsvw]

@zejono Hahahahahahahhaa! I'll give you that. Every team has some loser fans but Chicago, Pittsburgh and Washington are by far the worst

[zejono]

@jasonsvw i agree with you Luongo is overpriced.

[TheRipperRypien]

@zejono 5.6 cap hit isnt that bad for a Super Star goalie, he just had an inconsistent year.

[EnterInTheShikari]

Bernier is on fire ....... 11 games in playoffs under 2 GAA ........ bye bye Quick Hello Bernier

[644tad]

@jasonsvw Except for a guy named Cory Schneider.

[jewtubedit]

2 words Swedish Stevens.

[jewtubedit]

2 words Swedish Stevens

[GhostFlameZz]

Burtuzzi who??? This is Edler Country!!!

[zejono]

hahahahahha get owned LA is trash

[1kingsfan41]

@zejono is that why they are leading the series? what does that say about Vancouver?

[zejono]

@1kingsfan41 lol you are lucky you had your biased prick murphy running the review of goals. you have to admit that was a goal

[SH7861WeezyBabyy]

@1kingsfan41 Lets talk about some 5 on 5 hockey if you know what I mean.

[hashymotothiroiditis]

Edler was a beast here! He knows that it is the post season!

[hockeyfan977]

wasnt even that big of a hit

[SH7861WeezyBabyy]

@hockeyfan977 Any hit from Edler is a big hit...guy is NOT known for his physical play at all..surprised everyone

[dave1927p]

who thought Edler could hit at all let alone throw big hits like this.

[16UnknownSoldier16]

this is fukin awesome!!!!!!!!!!! Edler had the most best season on the Canucks Hits was everywere by Edler...

[Smeags11]

Hmm thats weird, I dont see any Stanley Cup banners in GM place, they must have been taken down for cleaning or something.

[SH7861WeezyBabyy]

@Smeags11 That one has been used already. Haters need to get a little bit more creative.

[TeeBlag]

@Smeags11

Ha, some guy used that against me at the leafs game when the leafs blew a 4 goal lead.. He said canucks havent won, but its been longer since the leafs have won a cup than the amount of time the canucks have been a team...

[turboman147]

@Smeags11 yea mabey. the must of taken the ones down in los angles too cause i dont see any there either

[canuckgirl7]

haha that was fucking EPIC!

LOVE EDLER!

[Coutts2]

Thats how we do it in Vancouver.

[flipboi87]

what a fucking beast

[STFUg00f2011]

Edler was the best player on the ice that game, by a mile

[LegendaryGoetz]

LOL at 0:12 Edler skates off like "yeah my job is done i will be back"

[Haotur]

Downy got rocked!! .. i mean doughty.

[am367609]

Doughty, i doubt you will try that again :)

[91splash]

Props for getting back up fast

[theWall0719]

No doubt Doughty will never doubt Edler's destructive force again.

[cgord31]

Doughty we loved you 2 months ago, (thanks for the Gold Medal.) but now your going down!

[VanIsleNuckFan]

Ohlund is back, and hes only in his 20s again!

[rblo16]

@VanIsleNuckFan  so true!!

[Queegzzz]

Did you notice after the hit Dustin Brown tries to Knee Kessler. At around the :9 mark. Dirty Fuker!

[dsrevo79]

@Queegzzz im pretty sure the no.1 rule in the dressing room is heads up... because this team will go for it...and avoid injury...

[hyunwookyoon]

Edler was probably like "so you are the young gun that all the canadians were talking about during the olympics...but I am "the" young gun from swedennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn­nnnnnnnnnnn" BAMMMMMMMM

[surfer53]

Edler has never been much of a hitter, but hey, better time than any to start. I even saw the twins and Samuelsson throw a few body checks. We will not be denied! Better luck next year, Drew!

[RypientheBeast37]

Edler took the most of it! but it was crunching hit

[bidaly2]

@RypientheBeast37

not really

[STFUg00f2011]

@RypientheBeast37

What game were you watching?

[RypientheBeast37]

@STFUg00f2011 the canucks one

[STFUg00f2011]

@RypientheBeast37

No you weren't because Edler dished it, no way in hell he got the worst.

[RypientheBeast37]

@STFUg00f2011 edler's the one who went flying the farthest!!

[SH7861WeezyBabyy]

@RypientheBeast37 Yeah but he didnt get the worst of it. Edler's knee weights like a 100 pounds guy is a beast its good hes finally using his size

[RypientheBeast37]

@SH7861WeezyBabyy ya that's true!!

[STFUg00f2011]

@RypientheBeast37

Because he jumped, doughty's the one who went down the hardest

[SH7861WeezyBabyy]

If Edler plays like those throughout the playoffs...man..that'd be awesome..SOLID..I want Rypien to get in a few hits bt oh well

[harbeh]

it's over 9000!!!!!!

[GonnaWin]

Watch it in slo-mo. Edler's feet don't leave the ice until contact is made.

[NHLuongo]

hes not taking any of those "cut across the crease" shenanigans. BOOM

[jennyzha0]

sorry LA, forgot what it feels to be back in the playoffs? 8 years too long?

[b7i7l7l7y7]

This reminds me of when Mitchell wrecked Toews.

[indiantan]

welcome to the PLAYOFFS Doughty

[3marktheshark2]

Edler with the flying leap of doom!

[Saari36]

@3marktheshark2 you're an idiot. if it was a flying leap it would have been charging you douche. that's one of the most stupid things you could've said. get your facts right.

[FernandezZz23]

@Saari36 buddy, i don't think he was trying to be factual. He was just expressing his excitement on the play. That was one of the most stupid things you could've said.

[kagomefan101]

Alex Edler just made Doughty his bitch!! Booo yaaa!!!!

[Ajax19]

Doughty got.... JACKED UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hunkatiel]

Edler threw more hits in this game than he did all season. His best game as a Canuck.

[11january11]

AMAZING!

[GucFahCha]

EDLER IS BEAST! How many hits did he get tonight? Like, 8? Most physical game by Edler for sure.

[jyrki21]

Edler!!!!

[Afroman2978]

holy shit Edler is the next Lidstrom Doughter got Raped

[IAMSINGAPORE]

you just got EDLERED!

[trexgoesmoo]

EDLER FOR THE WIN

[Freecell82]

Andrew Alberts can go fuck himself, right? We all agree on that?
