I'll type slow for you.


When you call someone the Canadian Ace, it's a compliment.

When you call someone the Canadian Cow, it's denigrading.

So I mean, that's the line. It's very, very easy. No reason to mention a guy's race, and no reason to call him something denigrading on top of that.

It's 2021. Come on.

I enjoy a good a** kicking and hits. Ya, injuries, but hey, they don't exactly do it for cheap.
It's OK if they suffer brain injuries because they make a lot of money?

I can't deny finding the fights entertaining, but as someone who has dealt with concussions personally I also hate seeing guys get hit in the head like that and I really hate seeing somebody looking like they've been concussed.

Yeah I got jumped once by a drunken idiot and suffered a long concussion. Wouldn’t wish it back on him, honestly. I bet he’d feel like a dick about it if we sat down and talked about it. Concussion for concussion is dumb, I’m so over it.

I disagree. The problem is this stuff has been "taken off line" too much.

Name it.
Call it what it is.
Address it.
Deal with it.

I think it's great that this community, for the most part, reacted with the outrage the comment deserved.

Read Ken Dryden's book on Steve Montador and tell me if that's what he signed up for.

I have always respected Khairas toughness.

He answered the bell for his dirty hit. Intentional or not, it was dirty.

I think I speak for everyone on CP when I say I hope he’s ok.

And I also hope we can move on with the rest of this game.
