Oh Jesus who cares if they sent Legros after Sparling, or we sent Gallant after Laliberte. It's part of hockey. If the coaches think it should be done, it gets done. The Foggies sent their boys after our young guys last year when we were winning by a fair margin. I had no problem with that either. In fact it was awesome. The rink was rockin that night too. Atmosphere was electric. Great game.
The article was all about rivalries and bad blood and such, which I'd love to see developed between us and say Bathurst and Moncton. The us and the Foggies same year expansion thing is wearing off. Rivalries usually begin thanks to rough stuff like this...and being able to ice competitive teams, which we finally appear to be ready to do.

I dont care I was pointing out it's a bit hypocritical of your coach to make comments like "it's not right to send a tough guy after a skill guy" when he himself did the very same thing last year.

BUT IT'S DIFFERENT. When a coach sends his tough guy out to send a message to the other coach that running up the score isn't cool, it is the right thing to do. Showing up your opponent is wrong, and their star players deserve to be beat up. When a coach sends his tough guy out to beat up a player for an incident that happened during a completely different game, when his players chose not to fight for each other, that is not okay. Not that I mind the bad blood, but PEI kept choosing to put their stars on the ice to show up the Sea DOgs, so Beaulieu told Gallant to find a dance partner. Saint John put out the next line, which happened to include Sparling in a close game, and A-B's coach put out his tough guy, knowing he was avoiding anybody tough.

"He(Pasano) thought it was a cheap hit and he did it the right way," -JB Where in this statement does it say it "WAS" a cheep hit?? As I and others said before It doesn't matter if the hit was clean or not it was the intention of Desnoyers strying to send Thomas into next week.

He thought it was a dirty hit so he acted accordingly he didn't think it was clean. Emphasis on the words there he tought it was dirty and he did the right thing. "He did it the right way" referring to his reaction to what he felt was a dirty hit and if he felt that way then in that case I can see how the reaction would be warranted like I already said. I'm not convinced he would have said the same thing if it had been clean.

I agree with the SJ fans. I'm a Rocket fan and once the score got out of hand new something was going to happen. I don't blame SJ a bit. The Rocket ran up the score and your team responded, thats the way it should be. A lot of teams bullied the Rocket last season and I'm afraid its going to be the same this year. Looking forward to seeing SJ play this season. They'll be fun to watch. I wish the Rocket had a bit of their toughness.

You are not allowed saying "we" there Caf ucklehead. You're not in the "we" group. You've not attended a bus trip yet. In fact I don't even remember you on the board(s) until after our 2nd year of existance (unless you were using another name and not posting at the Gallant-Unit pace you are setting now).
Where were you the first two years? Personally I think you are hopping on the Seadogs bandwagon now that our team is headed in the right direction. That and you're a flip-flopper(tm). ;D

I'm not convinced he would have said the same thing if it had been clean. Yeah I can see it now the quote in the SJ paper when asked about why he reacted like he did to the incident Pasano replied, "Well the hit was well timed and perfectly clean the Ref even thought so." Or he could say what he said and keep people like you who think that it's ridicules to intimidate and punish the opposition for clean hits calm by saying "Well I thought it was dirty." How can you know what he really thought and what he wants portrayed. I’m willing to bet he knew it was clean sorta like when a player troughs up his hands after a trip or a hook they know what they did but it doesn’t mean they wont try and pretend it didn’t happen.
