Hockey Hit Link?

Edited on Wed Mar-10-04 11:36 AM by Jack_Dawson

Was wondering if anyone had a link to the Bertuzzi cheap shot on Steve Moore in the Canucks-Avalanche game the other night. I missed it but heard it was atrocious. So of course I want to see it for myself.

4. Moore did something that precipitated this?

A revenge thing? WTF did Moore do? Did it deserve having his neck broken in an ambush?

5. He knocked out Canucks Captain Markus Naslund

with a concussion on a dirty hit that forced Naslund to miss three games

I guess one won't find much cheek-turning in the NHL.

7. Usually its kept amicable

but the Avs and Canucks are fighting hard for second place and though one can be competitive, hard and fair dirty hits are always a no-no. That said, I don't think Bertuzzi meant it to be as violent as it was, but its still no excuse

8. I didn't think the hit looked so bad ...

I'd say driving his head into the ice afterward was what caused the damage.
