5Fivehole0 Posted July 30, 2013 Author Share Posted July 30, 2013 Yeah,they were known as fighters. Ever see Bure fight? Ever see Linden fight? They are two of the greatest players this team has ever seen. How about Mogilny or Larionov or Lumme or Reinhart or all the greats whom are known to lead with their talent,heart and brains?

LuongovsTuuka Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I played against two former Canucks that never initiated one fight in their careers. Class is not fighting.Class is an elbow to Churla`s head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyril Sneer Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 The Sedins fall into a very rare category in hockey Too Classy 1.Henrik and Daniel Sedin 2. Nicklas Lidström? Maybe? is there any even close to the Sedins? They are who they are and if they chose to play the sport like gentlemen then I support them.

viking mama Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 gretzky fought , there is no reason the sedins cant, only 2 out of the top 50 all time scoring leaders have fought atleast once in their careers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck nit Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I will take the Art Ross winner,the Hart winner,the Ted Lindsay winner and the league`s MVP. You guys take Marchand and Churla and the like. If anybody thinks the twins should become fighters you diminish their talents and dwell in pugilistic, troglodyte dementia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuck nit Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Lemieux also had more than one fight in his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck nit Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I'm not saying they should become Sestito, I'm saying they should either lay someone out with a huge hit (dirty or not) or fight someone and swing like a mad man... Send a message, not making them cavemen... It's showing that they are MEN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5Fivehole0 Posted July 30, 2013 Author Share Posted July 30, 2013 In thirteen years of play he beat up 5`8`` Gary Lupul and had one fair fight with Gould. I love Lemieux but he was not a fighter.He threw some punches at times and used his stick a lot,like Gretzky did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbanks Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 The Sedins aren't meant to fight but they should at least stand up for themselves and not get pushed and punched around. That's why I like the idea of Kassian with the Sedins especially when you have Torts now who is great working with young players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5Fivehole0 Posted July 30, 2013 Author Share Posted July 30, 2013 Whatever.I watched Mel Bridgman and Gary Lupul growing up and I played against such players as Barry Pederson. I played six years of rep hockey up and down the island and mainland. I played senior men`s hockey and beer leagues. Fighting was rare and usually involved some idiot throwing knuckles and somebody else just trying to not make a fool of himself. If you wanted to fight you became a boxer and fought real fighters,not some guy that never fought in his life and just wanted to play hockey.

CanuckClown Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 That one highlight of Marchand will continue to skew people's opinions of the Sedins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck nit Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Or make a career out of it, like Robbie Ray... Fighting is part of Hockey, and a great part of hockey... It's in the sport for a reason. You may not be a fan of it, but it's there and has its uses... It doesn't matter what you've played, I still play hockey to this day but I don't use my inept hockey experience to form an opinion on pros.. I use stats and examples that pro's set... You made lists of Greats who have never fought, and I showed you all but Lumme, Larionov and a few others. When did they stop harassing Bure? When he knocked Churlov the F out... I'm not some blood sport person like you seem to think, I'm actually a huge fan of, and practice BJJ. I love watching grapple matches like Fitch vs Maia. Point is, the Sedins are targeted because they can be targeted. They are that kid at school who people pick on because he lets them... Stand up for yourself once, they laugh, again, they beat you up, again and they start showing you some respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rypien.4.Ever Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 This is what I want the Canucks to be. Should be rule one. Bieksa will do this, probably the only guy on D who will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
