Flyers, Media Vs Penguins and the coach......Childish?
April 3, 2012
Philadelphia Flyers played against the Pittsburgh Penguins April 1st and it was just a hair shy of blood bath, Maybe it was an April fools joke?
Surprisingly what may have seemed like an April Fools joke was not at all one to tell the truth the words grew worse after the game was finished and aired today turns out Mike Milbury had some tasteful comments along with Peter Laviolette showing hes not afraid to argue about the penguins at any time.
Remember last night when the Coach Laviolette and and Assistant Coach Tony Granato both jumped on the boards to argue after the open ice hit on the Flyers Forward Danny Briere from Joe Vitale, they both got their punishment for sure Laviolette got fined $10,000 and Granato got fined $2,500.
The Philadelphia Flyers won 6-4 that night and the complaints continued on after the game was over they couldn't stand to let the hit go.
Comment went across to what Coach Bylsma was doing to Crosby "apparently" being a little punk.
“Little goody two shoes Crosby goes into the corner and gives a shot to Schenn. Schenn was late to the party, he should have turned around and drilled him right away, but I guess better late than never. So you know, Crosby gets cross-checked, big whoop. He said after he came back from his 35th concussion, ‘I’m not going to do this anymore, I’m not going to get into this scrums, I’m going to stay away from that stuff.’ He couldn’t help himself because there’s a little punk in Crosby. He’s not the perfect gentleman. He’s not the sweet kid you see in interviews with his hat pulled down over his eyes. I’d say screw him, hit him.” said Mike Milbury
to add to that Peter Laviolette said “Those guys hadn't been out there in 12 minutes, It's a gutless move by their coach. It's gutless.” this is all started because of a little bump to Danny Briere.
Crosby and Bylsma sure weren't going to let this one slide so they answered back with the comments to show no one will stop their team from staying strong
“I think he’s wrong. He’s obviously wrong. There were no intentions when Dan Bylsma put Joe Vitale out there. It’s a line. It’s not like a special combination you put out there to start a fight. If anything he should look in the mirror and rethink why he had Danny Briere out there if he didn’t want him to get hit. I see it differently definitely. You know lets be honest both teams bring bad things upon one another, you can sit there and plot a microscope on every little slash that goes on out there the fact is both teams do it, both teams aren't going to sit there and deny they don't we don't like each other so thats the way it is you can dissect it all you want it comes down to it that we don't like each other so your going to see a lot of that stuff" said Sidney Crosby
Mike Milbury said some pretty mean things that its shocking to hear from an American Sportscaster, Dan Bylsma had all the rights to protect himself from Mike Milbury and Peter Laviolette.
"I wasn't wearing a skirt.....its my blue suit and.....you know antics and theatrics on the bench by their coach is that we don't play the game and what happened on the ice was a clean hockey play their was no penalty on the play their team took acception to it to a play there was no penalty on, our team probably would do the same and there was one fight on the play wasn't a big scrumish and again Joe Vitale played that shift the way he played every shift in the game" said Dan Bylsma
Why cant we all just get along i mean the Philadelphia Flyers won what else is there to moan about?
Was it all in Coach Laviolette's head to freak out over a little bump to his player or did Joe Vitale really deserve the penalty for the hit on Danny Briere?
Just want to put this in there remember that cross checking hit that Brayden "Baby" Schenn did on Sidney Crosby that got waved off for some odd reason isn't this just a way of karma biting the Philadelphia Flyers in the ass?
