hf101 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Rupert is suspended indefinitely at this point for his vicious slash.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cbsiHPxZfY&feature=youtu.be&hd=1http://www.broadstreethockey.com/2011/11/12/2556838/nick-cousins-slash-flyers-prospects#storyjumpNick Cousins seems like a decent Flyers prospect with the ability to get under the skin of the opposition.

flyercanuck Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Rupert should get at least 20 games for that. Cousins is the Soo's leading scorer and definately a class A jerk and agitator. Shooting the puck into the empty net after the game ends is classless. This isn't the first all out brawl he's been responsible for starting, and it won't be his last. He's a good player though.

sekkes85 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I don't care what is being said on the ice, this was inexcusable. Hit him right in the rib area with his stick like it was a baseball bat.http://ca.sports.yah...orhockey-wp3528 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murraycraven Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Wow... that is some serious hacking. That type of play is just bad for the game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sekkes85 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I believe they said the guy received a 20 game suspension. Can you imagine if his swing was higher and hit him in the face or neck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDI-Flyer Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Hmmm well the guy involved in the play lives with Dale Hunter... Obviously been receiving an education in how to cross the line... Cant wait to see the two remaining games between the Hounds and Knights later this season... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinorama Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 haha, Cousins looked like he skated directly over to the guy and cheered the win right in his face. Not saying he deserved to get slashed like that but you have to expect something bad is going to happen when you act like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHI Flyers10 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 That was ugly. If anything give him a shove and drop the gloves. You don't slash a guy in the ribs like you're swinging a baseball bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyerrod Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I believe they said the guy received a 20 game suspension. Can you imagine if his swing was higher and hit him in the face or neck?On that play, Cousins got a misconduct and Rupert got a major. Rupert should have dropped the gloves and gone after him. The way Rupert shed the gloves and went after him when Cousins went to the ice tells me that Cousins was probably hamming it up. It did not look like he pitchforked him with the blade but caught him with the handle. Not nice but a world of difference if you have ever been on the receiving end.....
