Give me a break. Shawn Antoski was a career goon who had just fought Craig MacTavish of all people. What did the Canucks think was going to happen? Graves alone had more talent than every guy Vancouver had out there.

[@donziperk]

@@dirtybirdambrose Really, more than Pavel Bure. Lol smoke another one.

[@dirtybirdambrose]

​@@donziperk Bure wasn't on the ice during any of that. Antoski - a nothing player whose only NHL caliber skill was fighting - fought a 35-year old Craig MacTavish, *after* high-sticking him. Unsurprisingly, the Rangers took exception. So yeah, they sent out Kocur and Kypreos and Beukeboom. Because what were they supposed to do, send out their skill guys to get jumped because Vancouver had the second change? As it was, even *with* the second change, Momesso was such a tool, he didn't even just drop the gloves and fight Kocur. Kocur dropped his, Momesso swung his stick at him, (and missed LOL), and only dropped his gloves as the linesmen moved in so he wouldn't get worked

[@donziperk]

@@dirtybirdambrose Read my original comment, Rangers started Canucks finished it. What did the Rangers expect was going to happen.

It's the only defense against Joey.🤣👊

Adam Graves is one of the most underrated players in NHL history! Imagine anticipating a skirmish on the ice so you put your big boys out there to handle business, one of which is a 50 GOAL SCORER!!!!!!!

Those were the good old days!!! I hated both teams but, man that was fun to watch. Hunter, Odjick and Antoski in the same lineup!!! Kocur, Wells and Kypreos!! These days we have a bunch of social justice warrior millennial soy boys twirling around with zero body contact to speak of. Sad. Just glad we got to watch the game when it was played by real men....

Back in the day you not only had your tough guys, but you had your heavyweights & middleweights & even lightweights on any given team. You HAD to know how to fight as a hockey player or you were in trouble. The late 80s and the influx of Europeans changed all that.
