It was a nothing fight, but Bahm somehow got hurt, left the game, tried to come back and left again. He wasnt wearing a helmet when him and Roski fell....maybe he banged his head. Thats my guess. Actually, it is when the linesmen jumped in the fight (too fast), he pulled Bahm back and twisted his ankle. You could see it on the replay. Yep - purely the linesmen's fault ... they got to stop that crap of jumping between two willing combatants and let them go, because guys are going to get hurt, either players or officials ... the linesman basically jumped on Bahm's back in mid scrap and practically suplexed him to break up the fight ... I have no problem with the league cracking down on cheap shots with lengthy suspensions, and I can understand why rules are now in place to prevent line brawls and the like ... but their is no need IMO for them to be breaking up fights being willing participants - that has always been part of the game.

They have been slumping long enough, time for Flynn to crack the whip. We need a dominating win against PEI on Sunday. IMO The cats are gonna start to come down to where they're suppose to be. They got off to a great hot start and Rio certainly was a major part of that. I think people got caught up in their record too much and could now be in for dissapointment when the team comes back down to reality.

A great win for the Moose when u consider that this might of been their worst played game this year.

I hope Steve didn't have a fondue party to go to causing him to miss Yetman's performance

I hope Steve didn't have a fondue party to go to causing him to miss Yetman's performance Yetman played great last night ... best game I have seen from him. But that doesn't change my opinion of him in the least. Because my opinion has always been that he is far too inconsistent. He can have great games ... and shitty games ... and some mediocre (4 goals on 25 shots) games ... but he has far too few of the great games ... and far too many of the mediocre games. But as good as he was last night I also saw far too many errors by him that you see from rookies ... mostly playing the puck behind the net ... absolutely brutal. If he was 18 you'd say yeah the kid is pretty good ... but he is 20. He is supposed to be an impact player on your team ... and that was probably only the 2nd or 3rd game this year where he has had a positive impact. But if you like Yetman and think he is good for the Moose ... well good for you.

The 25 shots the moose give up in a typical game, are completely different than the 25 shots Moncton (or many teams) might give up. Some goalies will make 20/21 saves in what is a fairly easy night for them, vs. giving up 4 in 25 in what was a very tough night.

Look at Domingue, id say 20 of Halifax 28 shots were wristers from just inside the blueline..

This isn't the first time this has happened this year, but hopefully it is the last!!! There is no need for willing combatants to be broken up until they are tired out...people get hurt that way... Also, it is very difficult to suspend someone when their choices are either to fight and get a penalty or do something stupid and get a penalty...that's not much of a choice...

I'm sure your rookie gets more help than Yetman most nights.

It seems like Steve likes to think the team playing in front of the goalie has no effect on their numbers and performance... at least when bashing Yetman.

I simply said that from what I have seen from Corbeil that I think he will be a very good goaltender. I do see him battling harder in the net that Yetman does. But for the record since you brought it up ... on average ... Corbeil faces 6 more shots per game than Yetman does ... however with Yetman having several more starts and minutes played ... those stats can be skewed with the differeing sample sizes.
