Chara played in P. George and took on every one and won every time. If we're honest Chara is a bit of a physical freak, nice guy I've been told .... but mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally, I’d say I’m against head butting. Dirty play and not really part of the game. But... When you have a 6’4”, 200+ lbs prospect defenceman, whose scouting reports say he lacks “snarl” and could improve his aggression and physical play, you kinda like to see it when he mixes it up and yes, maybe even gets a little “dirty,” at times. Not saying I want him to add head butting to his regular repertoire, but there’s nothing wrong with him getting a little meaner.

IMO we have been missing snarl ever since March 8, 2004 - the Bertuzzi incident. It has felt like we have been neutered ever since, playing a focused, restrained game under Sedin leadership. Fans have been calling to bring back the snarl, aka "push back", ever since the 2011 defeat. Good to see our players be on the edge of that notion without losing their composure to the point of being a detriment. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theo5789 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Good for him not backing down, but that wasn't much of a headbutt, so let's not get ahead of ourselves about his "snarl" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let the folklore continue! haha 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
204CanucksFan Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 That just looks like two guys nose to nose beaking at each other and Jurmo pushed the other players head away with his head. Probably happens 100's of times during an NHL season, and for that he gets a suspension 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sold a “head butt” and was expecting this and not this Oh well. Guess we’re gonna have to wait on that “snarl.” Always time, though. Maybe Joni will spear a guy’s nads next game. Can always hope! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaccines actually should be out within the month I hear, although getting one could still be a while away depending on demand, etc. but still, by next fall things should be back to near normal...
