RIPRYP Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 How about Booth? New tough guy? All joking aside, what a fight from our local Tofino surfer. It was great! Question: Lappy jumping in was great. I liked seeing him jump in to try and split up a fight since there is a history of concussions. It's great knowing we are standing up for our team like that. Great job Lappy. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TotesMagotes Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Im just glad Booth managed to get Olvers helmet off before wailing away at his head. Can you imagine a broken hand at this point of the season? Bleh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendythirteenthrashers Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 even funnier during the fight was kassians expression on the bench.... just chomping at the bit.... makes me wonder if hes being short leashed and told to tone it down until the playoffs.... i really like this kid...cant wait for him to get right comfy .... a goal soon would probably really help his game....like someone else mentioned is av should swap him and burrows and check that out...

RIPRYP Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Agreed. No more fighting from Booth we can't afford to lose a great player like that. Not the point of this thread. Just thought it was interesting to see him fight and Lappy standing up was nice. As for Kassian, I didn't see the expression. I will have to look for it. I agree I think AV is holding onto him close so he doesn't do anything stupid before the playoffs. Kassian will step it up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSS Corp. Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I always see AV puts his hand on Kassian to stop him from doing anything aggressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down by the River Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Kassian is definitely being reigned in by AV et al. I think this is a good thing. The playoffs are an entirely different animal and it could be overwhelming for a player as young as Kassian. Its for the best that he can go into the playoffs without any nagging injuries from fights, throwing his weight around, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazzylove19 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Lappy did a good job. i did not think that booth would fight, look like he was backing out. honeslty lappy have been doing a great job all year. always protecting teammates. regardless if the guy bigger then him. kassian only a kid. beside he has been doing a good job as well. whenever their is a scrum around the net, he always stand in the middle of the scrum and break up the pushing or roughing w.e you wanna call it. i think AV just want him to fight when they actually need him to step up.

Shift-4 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I was worried Lappy was going to get an extra penalty for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

etsen3 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I would rather Booth not fight and just let Lapierre handle it. Props to him for standing up for himself and Tanev though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master 112 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I thought it was just that Olver dropped the gloves quite a bit early, and Booth wasn't entirely ready for it. Lapierre stepped in there for a moment, but backed off as soon as he saw that Booth had dropped his gloves, too, and let them go at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edler Is a Beast Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I thought it was awesome seeing Booth fight. Yeah, it's risky seeing as how we can't afford injuries right now but i's not like it's something that's gonna become a trend or anything. It's good to see that the players are emotionally involved even though these games don't mean much for our team. I think it's a good sign that they are backing off going into the post season.
