Down goes Avery
January 22nd, 2010 by Eric Schwartz
If you were able to watch Thursday night’s hockey game between the Flyers and Rangers, you saw a one of the best moments of the season.
Ray Emery was great, stopping 24 pucks to record a shutout in his fourth game back from injury – but I’m not talking about him.
James Van Riemsdyke continued his stellar rookie season, scoring his 12th goal to give the Flyers a 1-0 first period lead – but I’m not talking about him.
Mike Richards, who is regaining his scoring touch, scored on a power play with just two seconds left in the second period to give the Flyers some breathing room – but once again I am not talking about him.
I’m talking about Scott Hartnell and the whipping he laid on Rangers’ punk Sean Avery.
Few things in life can bring as much joy as watching a guy who runs his mouth and acts tough get what’s coming to him. Maybe your wedding day? Maybe the birth of your first child?
I’m not sure. What I do know is that I could watch this clip all day long.
