On May 22, 1997, Detroit was on their way to smoking Colorado 6-0 in game 4 of the Western Conference Finals. Rene Corbet went after Martin Lapointe and eventually squared off with Brendan Shanahan, a move he would regret. Corbet ended up bloody on the ice.
@kosarsosar Carried hockey through the 90's Avs/Wings .......Flames/Oilers were another

Maybe Shanahan should go back to playing, because he sucks at his job now,

@squints0080 It's not the same now. We have some guys who can throw em (Abby, Big E, Bert, Commodore) but there doesn't seem to be the same sense of "Don't fuck with my teammates or I will get pissed and kick your ass" mentality that Shanny and D-Mac had.

@skinwalkerxxx Why, because he took someone who was a 2nd man in, and kicked his ass? Even if Shanny whould've stayed out, Marty would've pounded him just as bad.
