I agree with the top comment people.

Keep your head up and you'll be able to stand up after you get hit.

[BloggerMusicMan]

Should've dumped it in.

[sukkkmyballs]

[DaasCaptainhook]

questionable??? get real, dude had the puck.....keep your head up kid

[AndersonCooper]

Questionable? Jesus.  When did hockey fans become such pussies?

[rustapharian]

haha agreed

[vipathesnipa]

Lol good statement

[WFR]

@AndersonCooper

Was just about to ask the same thing :D I can't find anything even remotely dirty in this hit. Green doesn't look like a big guy but man he can hit like Ovie

[WahooWa1819]

the impact of the hit was more on the shoulder the forward motion of his arm was in the head area. but the most powerful part of the hit was on his shoulder. 1:07 gives you the best look you see his shoulder move from the impact then his head. its a clean hit.

[ThomasanderOvechkin]

it was payback the play that avery did to him earlier in the game.

[secondCitylove]

legit.

just sayin'.

[Haggerds]

elbow?

[washingtoncapitalsss]

no not even close

[avsfan7]

boom!

[sk8erboy9065]

questionable? no way. he had the puck, he got hit. keep your head up or you get blown up.

[WahooWa1819]

keep your head up...its that simple

[NightRevolver09]

wow hope that guy was ok.... Mike Green rocks!!! GO CAPS!

[Natsfan01]

He made a BITCH out of that guy!

[seanfarisroxs]

he's beautiful & easily one of the best players.

mike green is the shit

&& that had to hurt.

[TheRockChamp]

Mike Green's stick is in the "NHL HALL OF FAME". Pretty mych seals your comment for the "Pathetic Hall of Fame" or smth :)

[seanfarisroxs]

dude, wtf are you talking about?

[mirzayanov]

green is going to be one canadas best defensman in the olympics

[chopper086]

hahahha damn what a hit....go caps

[roenn0505]

Mike is the shit!!! best defender in the league. go caps tey gonna win the series even though they are dow2-3 in games...

[Dylan5851]

best defender in the league? wow.

[slickrick4505]

Sjostrom got JACKED UP!!!

[WahooWa1819]

ummm sweep????? gotta get by VARLAMOV first rangers lol goodluck.

[tbird23]

sweep no good series yes

[WahooWa1819]

thesday should be very exciting. Caps at home i gotta give it them in the end...thats and varly is a beast and the Caps can score now with D-men and forwards.

[7veronique12]

Mike Green is the best defence in the league so whoever you're a fan of, you must admit it. This kid is so good

[lynx2727]

No way. Hes good but hes actually too bad at playing defense to be considered good at his position.

[tyronefraser]

your a joke, he's amazing, he just plays the puck so much more than other defensemen that he is more often to turn it over, and when he makes a mistake he always fixes it with a dominating hit or a great takeaway. He's fucking great and will be the next bobby orr or paul coffey.

[TheRockChamp]

Mike Greens GOALS AGAINST RATION 5x5 IS LESS than CHARAS AND LIDSTROMS!

Green played NYR and Pens series nursing an injury so again don't judge him by those games. Hes like 23 and nominated along with 40 year old monsters who were not nominated at HIS age. Should be that damn good already.

[lynx2727]

If you follow the Caps you would see that he is barely a defenseman but more of a 4th forward on the ice. Good player but not a good Defenseman, no way he would have won the Norris considering you actually have to play D to be considered for it. In fact most of the people who voted for it said that exact same thing.

[MK1736]

Ya, since lots of the analysts say hes gotten a lot better in his own zone, not as good as chara or lidstrom. But still, he can play solid D.

[3hundyz]

its not green's fault sjostroms skating at a 4 foot level of course his elbows going to hit him

[KSchram17]

Green leads with the forearm not the shoulder, already a questionable move, plus the fact that he launches himself up to sjostrom's face? This is a definite penalty. Especially considering the bullshit they called on Girardi

[nicnic133]

and im talking to that madboost fuck

[nicnic133]

shut the fuck up you pussy you dont know shit.. if you knew anything about hockey you would know that that hit was illegal and not legal just because "callahan had the puck and got hammered" u fuckin retard

mike green left his feet-illegal

mike green used his elbow-illegal

stop crying just cause your caps are gonna get swept

[riskybubble]

Fuck you! It was gr8 hit and Caps will win the series...

[nicnic133]

hahahaha yea right down 2-0 rangers sweep!

[tbird23]

ur an idiot n kno nothing about hockey

[riskybubble]

sure =) bet you're one of cindys fangirls :D

[tbird23]

actually i hate cindy crosbaby

[riskybubble]

yesyes

[WarcraftBattleChest]

caps got swept all right...

and i'm not even a caps fan

[oldtimehockey101]

Clear elbow/forearm. Pause it @ 1:09

It's a huge hit, but far away from being a clean one.

[madboost35]

how is it questionable? It was absolutly clean, he was carying the puck and got fucking hammered, caps had better hit all game, better chances and outplayed ny heavily. Theo was the reason they lost he had a very bad game.

[bags258]

ur 100% right on everything you said, especially about theo.

[mattyo191]

Yeah you have to think Green is a bitch because we all know the color blue kicks way more ass. THANK YOU AVERY

[madboost35]

you know why mike green has a nick name "game over green"?

[pschoe2k8]

wish it was avery

[chrisphelan]

massive!

[meerkat98]

Green's a bitch. Good thing Avery dumped him to the bench.

[str8rippon]

just cause your a ranger fan it dosnt mean that mike green is a bitch

[meerkat98]

He sure whined like a bitch after the game.

[tyronefraser]

Your gay and so is avery
