Difference is, i would never go after a prolific fighter if i didnt know how to properly fight though.

You would be a good Canuck, they have a rich history of being afraid to fight.

He was doing fine until he wasnโ€™t. You donโ€™t have Sutter like balls clearly. Do you only fight little guys?

Fighting a good fighter, while not being a fighter or knowing how, doesnt give you big sutter balls, it makes you stupid. Everyone has a specific skill set in the NHL, scoring, playmaking, grinding, checking, etc. Know your skillset and make use of it. Boeser trying to hip check clutterbuck, doesnt give him big balls either lol. Canucks havent had a proper fighter since rypien. The problem now is you cant just be a fighter in the NHL, you need to be more, which is why Tom Wilson was paid what he was (even though it was an overpayment)

Leave the scoring to the scorers, and the fighting to the guys paid to do it, everyone wins.

Why does it make you stupid? I have all the respect in the world for guys that jump in like Hansen did when Daniel got rocked , or Miller jumping in when Stecher was getting whipped by Martin.

Burrows would jump in with anyone even if he was over matched. He was anything but stupid.

Guys that skate away because they are afraid are the ones I could do without.

How are they better 5/5???
- LeftCoaster

They aren't.
The Canucks will be bad next year. Some people are going to cry. A lot.
The Canucks will finish bottom 3 and most likely 30th or 31st.



Gaunce is better value than Beagle. The Beagle contract = the Eriksson contract.

So crosby is elite and a 3 cup champion, not because he is the best player in the world, but because he isnt afraid to push chara? I think there is a disconnect between us between not being afraid to stand down to a guy in a scrum and having a premeditated fight with the gloves off

What else can we talk about? I posted a nice Hughes article and nobody read it and kept focusing on Gaunce. This fanbases obsession on Gaunce is franking creepy. He should demand a trade

Gaunce sucks. Beagle sucks. I will talk about goldobins bowel movements just to get away from that debate that has gone over 2 blogs.

Crosby does anything to win. He is not afraid to do anything. That is the difference between a world class champ and a guy drawing a paycheck.

No . You and all your fellow GAUNCE lovers can hope to build a cup winner with his elite talent

I really wish this site had an ignore button

I really enjoy the escalation that this conversation is taking, not that I have now bolded the name of my hatred player, I'm not sure how you can escalate that any further.

True, there's no place for Gaunce and Beagle is a slow marginal player. He may help the PP and win some faceoffs but imo that's not a scale tipping event.
- LeftCoaster


Beagle will not help the power play! Full stop, shake the cobwebs out and try again.

Do i think beagle is tougher than half the team of last year, sure. What hartnell did to burmistrov/gagner/stecher was a lowpoint in the season for me. Not sure comparing crosby and beagle is something this thread needs tho

Now Goldobin is a player Iโ€™d love to discuss! Kid is so goddamn fake and he canโ€™t lift!

Seriously, Carol solve this debate. Who sucks more? Gaunce or Beagle ?

Did you notice Hughes willingness to fight at the Summer Showcase even though he is not a fighter

Ya it was weird, donโ€™t you have to have a fighter sticker on your helmet to stand up for yourself? Hughes showed more push back in a summer showcase than both Sedins did in an entire career

Are we really comparing Beagle to Crosby ? If you really believe that I think you should go out for lunch or something.

You said leave the scoring to the scorers and the fighting to the fighters . I was pointing out good leaders of clubs will do whatever it takes. Toews Thorton Crosby Getzloff all talented scorers that will do whatever it takes to win . I am shooting down your argument , not comparing Beagle to the elite talent of the league

I think again, there is a bit of a disconnect in the definition. Standing up for yourself and your team mates should be in the blue print of EVERY player. I never disputed that, or if i did, it was my fault for poor communication. Would i prefer boeser to score goals and not throw hip checks on 4th line plugs like clutterbuck, absolutely. Would i prefer gudbranson fighting a guy like martin than stecher or miller, absolutely. I want EVERY player who suits up in blue and green to stand up for themselves or their team mates. Will i admit beagle brings more of that than half the team, absolutely.
