Todd Bertuzzi Steve Moore incident: Crib notes for those who want the short version.

Moore cheap shotted our captain Moore knew he had to answer Moore fought worst fighter on our team and KNOWS that doesn't get him off the hook The GOOD fighter on our team comes straight for him, and after a LIFETIME IN HOCKEY...Moore turns away, screwing both himself and the guy coming for him Bertuzzi goes to engage in a fight like both he and Moore have countless times in countless games spanning their entire lives, there is a code of conduct that governs how this is done, it exists to mete out justice but ALSO to make sure that Justice stays within the game, everyone goes home that night to fight another day Moore breaks the code, he turns away, Bertuzzi attacks as anyone especially Moore knew he would, I expect Moore thought he might get Bertuzzi ejected or suspended by turning away, he broke the code he gambled and EVERYONE LOST Bertuzzi breaks his neck, THE LAST THING IN THE WORLD HE WOULD HAVE WANTED Moore's dishonorable actions scar the liv

L.A King's Twitter troll Taveres...and he DESERVES IT!

The Kings have a weird approach to twitter, They had that thing with UFC....I can't remember what the King's said but the UFC comeback was something like:"Our 4th line could take your 4th line" or something, Whoever runs the thing clearly has marching orders to be obnoxious...hey, I get it...We're talking about it aren't we?

Now if it's Islanders fans you are concerned about, don't be *****ing about the KING's twitter.....because.....THEY ARE RIGHT Tavares had no cause to turn this t

Why Oiler's fans shouldn't be concerned with Taylor Hall's Hart Trophy

This.....Everybody understood, Hall HAD to be gone prior to training camp, you can gush all over his Hart win now, but back then his attitude had been identified as the #1 thing the Oilers needed to move in order to be successful....and though everyone hoped to get more....IT WORKED! Like magic, the cloud lifted from Edmonton and descended on Jersey where people are forgetting he neither played very well or was very well liked his first year... Hall came in with a different attitude this year, one he never would have been forced to adopt had he NOT been traded, and the Oilers failings for last season need to be placed squarely at the feet of ONE MAN Connor McDavid.....EVERYONE gives him a pass when he is the FIRST guy who should have been held accountable, This guy's main concern in the first part of the season was upsetting the team's lines because HE wanted the team's 2nd line center (Who HAD to play there) on HIS wing Huh? He's supposed to be the
