Zac threw punches in a flurry as Crombeen was on his way down. Not after he was knocked out.

watch the video man...it doesn't matter it happened last year, and that's why I hate rinaldo, that's all

haha , physicality does not offend me at all, dirty hockey offends me
theres a code in fighting, rinaldo broke it. so vinny gave the flyers back what they dished out, that's all that happened...rinaldo was overly aggressive and it was a dirty fight at the end, everything before it (including crombeen getting his ass whooped) was completely fair, once a guy is knocked out on the ice why keep throwing punches?

it doesn't matter it was last year, but that's why I think rinaldo is dirty..people asked me why I HATE him, that's why...sure hes an agitator and bugged me to begin with, but that's why I hate him, throwing punches on a guy that didn't even know he was falling he was so (frank)ed up .. and kept delivering the whole way down. watch the fight and youll be ashamed your defending that fight

Whens the last time you were in a fist fight? People get heated and adrenaline flows. You swing until your opposition is OUT!!

Oh, eah my bad

every fight guys swing on the way down when their opponent is knocked out
guys swing when their opponent is on the ground every fight in the NHL, I forgot

that's fine, but the punches need to be stopped when the opponent is down. that's all, people talk about wanting fighting banned and that fight is 1 example why, I love fighting in the game, but that wasn't for me

I love the big hits, I love the huge punches, I love the big fights and bench brawls when their even and clean,

I don't like cheap shots, I don't like hits from behinds, knees, hits to the head, or breaking the fighter code

classic flyers fan

you should reallly try watching the fight again.

it doesn't matter man, I was getting ridiculed because I hate rinaldo, that's the reason I hate him and you don't have to agree with it but that's my opinion...it was just a dirty fight in my eyes

In all seriousness. Fists are thrown at guys that are down very often in the NHL. That simply wasnt the case with Rinaldo.

He landed that monster chin shot, and three more as Crombeen was going down. Once Crombeen (who was out there running around like a jackass) was down on the ice.. the punches stopped.

Problem is, Crombeen wasn't down, he wasn't even falling down... he was on one knee.

It just bothers me to see hockey fans complain about fighting and checking ina sport like hockey. Get over it. Its a fast and physical sport and sometimes bad things happen. These are men out there, they handle themeselves. Enough crying about it.

Hate away. Is he the cleanest player in the world. No. But unfortunately, overly physical players often get unwarranted reputations.

its fine, I love physicality , I didn't like that one fight, I like watching gudas and guys of TB drop the gloves, but that fight wasn't right to me

Ok, I just gave a reason why I hate him and I don't care if you agree or not, lol

I agree with you. Hate away. No sense in arguing about it, your opinion is formed and you're entitled to it.

I hate Steven Stamkos and my only reason is all the signing rumours from a few years ago. Not even as good of a reason but I'm keeping it.

Cause it was a Lightning player getting lit up.... any other teams player and you dont think twice. Actually you would probably be impressed with Rinaldo's knockout punch. Are you gonna complain about Simmonds knocking out Brewer too?

Almost as bad as people complaining about Emery beating on Holtby. Your in the NHL man, you better be ready to fight when challenged. PERIOD.

You can hate Rinaldo. I dont care. Its a compliment. Means he is doing his job. He is one of the best agitators in the game.

Psh, you think I can afford locks with all those monitors in the budget?

Lost me on that one. That was pretty embarrassing.

No that is me. And to prevent that.. my wife got me a Lappy jersey for my anniversary.
- jak521

Poor Lappy, do you think he knows he's about to get fired?

In Holtby's case, he's in the NHL to stop other teams from scoring. What does fighting have to do with this?

How about he is a grown man being challenged to a fight in a sport that has FIGHTING. Get a pair of balls and defend yourself.
