Odd. Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Matt Cooke is a joke and is a bad reputation for hockey. He is an untalented player who relies on cheap shots and then running away like a little pansy. Matt Cooke for the Bill Masterton trophy a few years ago my a$$.

canuck73_3 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Cooke is such a useless gutless piece of crap. Wish Martin hit him instead of Ballard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herberts Vasiljevs Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 how is that turtling? Weber got some decent shots in to take Cooke down i would also gather people don't watch Cooke very much if at all and use a couple of incidents like the Karlsson one to claim he hasn't changed his ways yet the stats say otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangelos Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Weber clearly punched that zebra in the back of the head on the last punch. While in theory I'm all for officials getting hit, that should be suspendable. No? Oh wait. It's Shea Weber. The guy who used Zetterberg's head as a bowling ball. He makes the league money so he'll never get suspended. Might get a fine for murder but that's about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 The high stick was stupid on his part but that's hardly a turtle when you get a guy that much larger like Weber is pulling him down. ... Did not fight back whatsoever, he just crumpled to the fetal position after provoking the beast Uh, no, he got pulled down by Weber after the first few swings and then when he was in a totally vulnerable position he covered up. You're making it sound like he pulled his head into his gear the minute Weber went after him. Are you saying he should have tried to stand back up and hope Weber doesn't knock him out while his head's sticking out all the while? Cooke is such a useless gutless piece of crap. Wish Martin hit him instead of Ballard. I wish Ballard (for his own sake) hadn't turned a full 180 just before the hit causing the injury. But hey, things don't always work the way you think they should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying he should have tried to stand back up and hope Weber doesn't knock him out while his head's sticking out all the while? I'm saying if you go antagonize a monster like Weber after a clean hit, then drive your stick into his chin because you're a dirt bag. At least have the balls to drop the mitts and attempt to defend yourself, otherwise you look like a coward. He turtled to avoid taking too much damage. Obviously Weber has a massive size advantage, and can out-muscle him but Cooke still made himself look like a little girl by poking the bear and attempting to flee the situation like a coward. He hit the deck the second the bombs started dropping. Spineless play, and was feeble in the aftermath of the inevitable response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steen Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Not a fan of Cooke or his turtling, but I think was Don Cherry said tonight that Weber didn't even see the stick coming, which is totally ridiculous, as both had their sticks up pretty high.

Chalky Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Shea Weber is one of favorites and Ratt Cooke is slimy POS. I thoroughly enjoyed watching that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonfruits Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 seriously the hate Cooke get is pathetic a lot of you act as if he is the only player in the NHL doing stuff like this and if anyone actually bothered to watch him play which i am sure a lot of you haven't except for some random highlights to illustrate your point in making him out to be the dirtiest player in the NHL you would realize how he changed and i am not the only one who thinks so several analysts across various platforms have stated this i'm not defending what he did but the blind hatred for this former player is disgusting on this board i bet a lot of you still think he cut Karlsson on purpose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonfruits Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 but then the the terrorists win another post in the long sad posts of wishing harm to NHL players whether it's joking or not it's sad to wish bodily harm to someone you don't even know except through a 1 minute highlight package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2SKATES1STICK Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 another post in the long sad posts of wishing harm to NHL players whether it's joking or not it's sad to wish bodily harm to someone you don't even know except through a 1 minute highlight package i don't wish harm to him, wtf are you on about. i was poking fun at that very idea.

DollarAndADream Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I agree with the people saying Cooke didn't turtle. It looks more like Weber was too strong and Cooke lost his balance. Obviously on the ground with Weber over top of him he's going to cover up. Didn't look like he intentionally backed down. I'm not exactly defending Cooke, because he's a dirty guy but hasn't been nearly as dirty as he used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webster6 Posted January 11, 2015 Author Share Posted January 11, 2015 Regardless of if he does play less reckless. Sure, let's say he does. He is still a meat head with no class, and no balls. He earns every a$$ whooping he gets, and I'm sure there is more to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
