Rick Rypien Attacks Minnesota Fan (HD 720p Multifeed)

[captintrn]

@mahtieshaa Cool story bro.

[kda5]

*wasn't

[kda5]

The clapping was replaced with shitting in his pants the second Rypien grabbed him. He was escorted out of the building, just to the bathroom to change his underwear.

[TheEPICBRUIN]

if i was attacked i would ve yelled rape

[KingOfTheIce71]

The kid with the beber hair was shitting his pants, and the other guy started fighting back behind the security...lol

[axelroach]

wow i havnt seen this b4 this is insane

[jessexchrono]

Aaaaaand where did Minnesota go that season? Nowhere. Where are they going this year? Nowhere.

[MrSouthphillyitalian]

he should of got season tickets

[Canucksgirloxo]

RIP <3

[w5monkey]

rip



[coreyjr121]

He committed suicide... Even though it's sad killing itself is never the answer, especially living a career like him, I just don't understand it.

[cashmoney5490]

Fans like to hide behind this invisible wall were they have the right to mock and say anything they want to a player because they think they have an invisible wall around them...it's a calculated risk when you yell or say or gesture anything at any human being...this kid lost. We can try to play it up to some "civilized" term here. But at the end of the day. It's just humans acting like primitives

[skydome29]

@cashmoney5490 They paid for it genius.

[Cashmoney3590]

@skydome29 fake

[skydome29]

@Cashmoney3590 what? I'm just saying they pay the players contracts and other things (even the opposing team). Fans can jeer, clap and cheer all they want as long as they don't go overboard, which this clearly wasn't.

[Raiders32763]

well u can hate on him all you want but hes dead now. poor guy. RIP.

[chinary8]

A pro athlete should have a thicker skin when it comes to dealing with opposing fans.

[TemptationzzzPvP]

Hmm..funny..all these Videos im watching about Fans fighting, Playing getting ejected..and things happened..Vancover was in 90% of them..rofl..tells you somthing.

[chinary8]

@TemptationzzzPvP Bullshit, fucking leafs fan. 

[TemptationzzzPvP]

@chinary8 Leafs Fan? rofl yeah ok....HURRICANES FTW

[seajai09]

That fan deserved that, you are allowed to clap but you can't just mock a player when your that close and I'm sure he said something as well and expect to get away with it! I like how he acts all tough and then when ripper grabs him he freaks!

[ninjajesus81]

@seajai09 You CAN just mock a player when you're that close. What the hell country are you living in?

[DIllonthablazer11]

@seajai09 no YOU CAN , YOU CANT attack somone for doing so.

[ArmTriangleChoke]

What team is van?

[SCWC96]

going to miss him so sad the way he went

[15smycity]

karmas a bitch ?

[o0BFBC20o]

@15smycity Fuck you

[77HeIix]

@15smycity Wow, fucking pathetic, seriously he deserves to die for grabbing a fan?

You're a fucking pussy, I can't wait for karma to catch up to you...

[15smycity]

@77HeIix lol

[iluvhamsters09]

The reason why Rick Rypien "attacked" the fan was because the guy said to Ryp "way to be professional". The fan was really dumb and stupid because he saw Rypien mad then all of the sudden the fan tries to act smart.. Rest In Peace Rick Rypien, we miss u and love u always <3

[delacroixwalrus]

@iluvhamsters09 No, the fan was not dumb and stupid. Rypien was the idiot here. The fan was not suspended. The fan was not fined. Rick Rypien agreed to adhere to the rules set forth by the NHL when he signed his contract. One of those rules was not to attack the fans. It is unfortunately that he has died, but that does not change the fact that Rypien behaved like a moron.

[KonceptMusiK]

R.I.P

He passed away today.

[jaredhipfn]

YOU KNOW WHAT IM A BRUINS FAN AND I HATE THE CANUCKS BUT RYPIEN AT LEAST SHOWED SOME BALLS!!!!! THAT FAN WAS A IRRITATING THE WHOLE BENCH SO GOOD FOR YOU RICK!@!!

[Terminus92]

boyfriend saves him how heroic

[PeterBryson91]

that fan is my new hero

[ohaider101]

I think, forget the fan for a sec, staubitz is a huge bitch

commentation quote: "You know staubitz, ready to go any time"

pffft only the guy never once puts up any resistance, despite starting it all.

Notice how staubitz actually is the one who instigates it by turning around and pushing rypien to bend over backwards into the wild bench.

then sits there like a bitch, drawing an ejection.

staubitz would've gotten his ass kicked, and he's lucky that all rypien did was give him a jaw shot.

[WPGJetsFan4Life]

Just like anything else in life, if you can't back up what you say then don't say it. This fan is a pussy and a whiny little bitch. He trash talks a guy who could fucking demolish him in a second and Rypien gets mad. Big deal. The fan deserves it. Him and his dumb kid. But a typical American he is because he has to go and get legal recourse because nothing is ever his fault no no. Stupid cunt

[CountSlippers]

@WPGJetsFan4Life Enjoy your NHL team.... Never mind.

[WPGJetsFan4Life]

@CountSlippers actually i will. now that they are back.

[CountSlippers]

@WPGJetsFan4Life How was this fan a pussy?

[jooohnney]

was that a kid getting attacked ?!

[XileLord]

Shook him a bit, not a big deal jesus christ guys stop being pussies.

[theBSGfromtheD]

The fan did nothing wrong. That Rypien is clearly a sore loser. If you don't want to get heckled don't play professional sports.

[selannekariya]

The fan wants to sue? Really? What's next, he going to sue me for being a Canucks fan? Bullcrap.

What Rypien did was wrong, really wrong, but I don't think that fan is all too innocent in this either. It takes two, baby.

[rockonup]

@selannekariya Its a hearing with the league Rypien will go in front of the board and the will fine him and give him more suspensions.

[elchasai]

@selannekariya the fan was clapping you moron

[ravballer]

NOBODY FUCKS WITH US CANUCKS BABY

[TheProuddaddy2009]

fuck the cuncuck fans 

[ravballer]

@TheProuddaddy2009 canucks fnas are proud and united...canucks ftw

[TheRemotestCipher]

...This is a big deal in the NHL today, but years ago when Rob Ray punches a fan who hopped on the ice a dozen times that's pretty fuckin' normal.

[mahtieshaa]

Thre is Finland shirt at 2:35!

[hayo456]

this also happened due to the fact that the arena workers didnt set up the portable tunnel that visiting teams walk down so they can't interact with the fans

[rkevo55]

Never let it be said that Dan Terhaar is the most objectionable announcer out there. He makes it sound like Rypien was packing heat. Geez, lighten up, Francis!

[glowsticksgonewild]

seeing this reminds me of what Matthew Barnaby did he almost got into it with a fan but at least he didn't grab the guy

[woycheshen]

for the suspension and $25,000 Rypien should have pulled this guy out of his seat and given him at least one "professional" punch in the head. If you go to a hockey game and mouth off you can expect a punch in the head.. Now the douche bag wants to sue??Freakin gold digger

[mav6817]

PLAY OF THE WEEK!!! lol

Fans dont just get jumped by players......I would bet the fans involved said or did something to provoke this kind of reaction. GO NUCKS!

[EdgeHeadTubeV2]

@mav6817 Yeah, I am sure Rypien wasn't frustrated at all and loved seeing that jersey.

[AeroDelight8]

Of course the fan said something....doesn't mean it was right. You gotta be more professional than that.

[acomotoya]

@mav6817 It was the fact that the guy looked DIRECTLY at him and clapped right in his face that set him off

[shupster369]

@acomotoya true he was egging him on

[ip00ponYOU]

im from minnesota and i wish rypien would have pulled him over and muffed him up cuz that guy is a fuckin douche and if i can find his house, its getting paintballed

[tjpete04]

@ip00ponYOU The fans a douche? That's makes no sense

[sdavistew]

@ip00ponYOU i thought i was the only one, word is he said " go back to the leaf, cock sucker! " if i had almost been elbowed in the face three times by brad fag staubitz, and then someone said that to me...i would kill him aswell.

[kngiraffe]

walking by you***

[kngiraffe]

obviously James Engquist was a dumbass for f*cking saying way to be professional to a NHL player who just got kicked out of the game for fighting. but Rypien is a ddumbass for getting that fired up. honestly they both deserve what they got. be f*cking smart about what you say when anger NHL players are walking by me. dumbass

[LadyJ316]

There should really be a barrier there so the players going into the tunnel are seperated from theh fans...

[Cornmuffin9]

the fan said to Rypien, ‘Way to be a professional.'

[TheRagingClue8]

@Cornmuffin9 i doubt thats all he said

[MrSnikwah7]

The decision is in.... Rypien got 6 games.

Figured he'd get at least 10.

[SluiceBoxDon]

I hate Vancouver more than ever...

[zingsters]

@SluiceBoxDon hey. you can't just hate vancouver cause they have rypien. vancouver is a great town and the citizens are awesome( including me)

[chelseafcfanisy]

@SluiceBoxDon You hate the Canucks, not Vancouver.

[11DNA11]

He barely touched him :P Rob Ray hit a fan 8 times :P

[chubbyjenks]

I don't know whos more embarrassing Rypien or John faggot Garrett.

[seehound619]

Rypien went WAY over the line.... I guarantee hes done for the season.

[hunkatiel]

@seehound619 Really, you think that's worth a season? You may be right, you know Buttmen likes to make an example of 4th line guys. You don't ever touch a fan but compare it to O'Reilly/McNab 79, that's WAY over the line, this isn't even in the same ballpark. If you want to look at a comparable it's the Matthew Barnaby push on a fan which was worse because he came back to do it, 4 games. I say they'll multiply that by 5 cause everybodies lawyered up these days.

[seehound619]

@hunkatiel u might be right...... maybe its nto as bad as i originally figured..... or how bout when Tie Domi was jackhammering a guy in the penalty box. lol

[hunkatiel]

@seehound619 A classic. Domi gave him a shower with the water bottle then the guy made the mistake of leaning his Shrek like frame on the glass and he dislodged it. Then he's face to face with Domi in the box and it's like, Oh Shit, now what, lol.

[RideTheLightning101]

he had no right grabbing the fan...none at all.

[xpiritflare]

1:32

Lol Bieksa

[angrysteve19]

lol, that dude got his moneys worth at this game!!! I'm a Ranger fan so I wish an Islander would come after me... That dude has a cool story to tell his Grandkids.

[balvanca]

@angrysteve19 He also gets lots of money

[loveNux]

that guy looked like he about pissed his pants seeing Rypien coming at him

[misfits0772]

The fan said way to be professional and rypien went after him

I hate rypien he's a dirtbag and should get a full year suspension

[kngiraffe]

@misfits0772 i disagree about the full year. but they both were ridiculous.

[borjeman]

I wonder what words where exchanged from that coward of a fan and Rypien

[cjeb2003]

@borjeman Let's see now... the kid is merely clapping and probably cheering for Minnesota and then Ripien, who was out of control to begin with, physically attacks the kid for no good reason and the kid is a coward... how? Perhaps Ripien is the real coward because he can't do on the ice what he does to the fans. He knows the other players would kick the shit out of him! Ripien = COWARD!

[kngiraffe]

@cjeb2003 actually he said way to be professional.

[namkid69]

tell that kid to come to vancouver and clap.. rypien isnt the only rippin that kidz gonna get.

[MapleGenesis]

The fan was clapping, its what fans do when something goes right for their team. Rypien was totally in the wrong for shoving the fan and grabbing him, but the fan is an idiot for trying to sue him, grow up kid.

[cjeb2003]

Let's see now... I've had a bad day on Wall Street. Just for the heck of it and to release some built up stress, I come up to you on the street and lay a beating on you. Clearly, I am in the wrong as many witnesses will testify but, according to you, YOU are an idiot for trying to sue me. You should just grow up, asshole. Is that right? The kid paid for his ticket to see a hockey game. Nowhere on the ticket does it say a player can assault you for no reason. Go kid! Take him down big time!

[jaywoody69]

that fan is a huge douche bag

[cjeb2003]

Why? For suing the asshole Ripien for aggravated assault? Get a grip, prick! Media darlings like sports "stars" and movie stars have got to get down off their pedestals and start paying the price for their sins! Sadly though, the NHL will overpay some high calibre corporate junkie of a lawyer to get him off and he'll be back before the puck drops at the next game. Unfortunately today's NHL hasn't got the balls to punish players properly! In a regular job he would have been fired and done time!

[WJets4life]

As much as I dislike Minnesota, Rypien was definitely in the wrong here.

[shantz00]

Americans are so fucking dumb! Rick kicks ass! And Minnesota fans are a joke.. Lol go Nucks go

[MOMOarabe]

@shantz00

nucks?

[ZizzzzyTube]

Not much you can say about Rypien Vs Fan, but I do hope that the NHL doesn't overlook Staubitz's use of of his stick to choke Rypien when they review this play.

[prorobo]

Rypien is a dumbass. Enjoy your suspension.

[Cowlick33]

stupid canadians...

[Hockeyman144]

@Cowlick33 stop watching hockey

[trois22]

@Cowlick33 Most of the players on your team are Canadians.

[mozartjune]

Rypien or the fan did not do the right thing. Rypien was definitely frustrated with everything, but he shouldn't have pushed the Wild fan in any way. However, the fan should know better to not make an agitator more frustrated. Plus, they should note that hockey players are there to work basically and play the game. Fans are the ones who support their team rather than make fun of the opposition. There has to be respect for both teams.

[LouieL879]

@mozartjunethe fan was clapping, he didn't do anything wrong so quiet down

[mozartjune]

@LouieL879 Do you know what the fan said? probably not and I'm saying he could've said something.

[sniggle76]

@mozartjune Way to be professional

[sniggle76]

@sniggle76 Sorry that was what the fan states he said "Way to be professional"

[mozartjune]

@sniggle76 People have good days and bad days. Rypien had a bad day and he did not do the right thing. I never said Rypien didn't do anything wrong

[Bart9494]

@mozartjune People pay alot of money for those seats and they should be allowed to clap for whoever they want. Rypien is the pro making the money. Just a sore loser like the rest of his whiny teammates. (Go Hawks)

[mozartjune]

@Bart9494 Clapping isn't an issue. He may have thrown something or said something. Anyways, did I say that Rypien didn't the right thing? No, I said he did not do the right thing.

[anonplzzzzzz]

I would be angry too if some douche had me pinned up against a player's bench with his stick across my throat. That could of been really dangerious.

And you don't know what the fan was saying....

10 game suspension... maybe. Out indefinitely.... a little extreme

[TheCurrymanEffect]

funny.

[SweeetLou88]

LOL!!!! two shit people going at it.

[XixRSGxiX]

The fan was just clapping......PIECE OF SHIT CANUCKS !!

[acebodin]

moron...

[frasermack18]

according the NHL Network, the guy Rick Rypien grabbed is seeking a lawyer and suing for assault!

[junkyturd]

@frasermack18 are you serious, he barely even touched him! that's what hockey's all about anyway. Pussy ass just want's free money!

[frasermack18]

yeah, no joke. The NHL Network guys asked Colby Armstrong what he thought of the fan suing Rypien and he laughed out loud!

[DEEZYYxx]

For those who are saying he was just clapping , he was clapping facing him probably to make fun of him and he also was giving high fives thinking that he was a tough guy a few feet above the guy , thank god that arena doesnt have seats like they do in baseball stadiums where the guy could just jump over the barrier or Rypien would have fucked him up

[yazzy613]

lol @ the homer announcers who are like "omg looks like Staubitz took a hit there, i wonder who hit him????" when it was clearly Rypien

[xpiritflare]

@yazzy613 Please listen to the canucks commentators on this matter, that is the extreme definition of homerism.

[644tad]

@xpiritflare Every team has biased commentators.

[icedrgn7]

@xpiritflare The Guys that were talking were the WILD commentators.... Just so ya know....

[icedrgn7]

Just so everyone knows that didnt see the rest of the game, these guys got better seats!! They were moved to ice level on the glass

[Wordlifetn97]

haha henrik has the best reaction. rypien pushes him, henrik sees him grab the fan and just walks away haha!

[buckyhermit]

@Wordlifetn97 As team captain, you'd think he'd do more than that.

[YeahImANerd]

@buckyhermit but it's still better to do nothing than taunt the fan more, like say, Bieksa did... (@1:30) =) but I do agree with you

[mrwarped]

I can understand Rypien's frustration, but It's simple,. if a fan's being obnoxious like that you can either ignore them or curse at them, not grab them like you're gonna rip their throat out.

[spypengyn]

@mrwarped but he was just clapping

[mrwarped]

@spypengyn I'm not talking about the fan I'm talking about Rypien

[spypengyn]

@mrwarped i just meant that clapping isnt obnoxious.

[huzaifah123]

im not a minnesota fan but rypien is an idiot

[aplayaz2000]

imagine if those two got a season pass

[Kratos9945]

i'm a canucks fan myself but i gotta hand it to those fans. what rypien did was just plain stupid

[phille22]

and what is bieksa doing. they only clapped their hands, if they didn't say something.

[phatmike21]

Wild Franchise owes those two more than just a pair of tickets. I would have sat in my seat and not moved and told them to "go upstairs" to check the replay.

[icedrgn7]

@phatmike21 They did get Ice Level glass seats for the rest of the game, they were not ejected... but I do agree with you they are owed more BIG TIME!!

[markmata44]

I would of slapped rypien.

[Nasher61x]

They got ejected for clapping? Rypien should have to pay for free season tickets to those two.

[TheKatie1223]

@Nasher61x they got moved to a diffrent section for some reason, i watched.

[YouGenuinus]

@Nasher61x lol..gay minnesota fan haha.

[Nasher61x]

@YouGenuinus Or a straight Columbus fan, notice my username?

[YouGenuinus]

@Nasher61x oh right, i couldnt tell the difference between the 2 gay teams. only good thing about columbus is rick nash

[elchasai]

@Nasher61x they got to sit in a luxury suite for the rest of the game

[FFMHockeyFan]

the 2 fans are great

[lostenmusic]

Well, that was stupid.
