Tales of the Tape: Mike Comrie vs. Maxim Lapierre 10/9/10

Here we are - another season, more fights to be waged, more Tales of the Tape!  The first game of the season waged no fights, despite being against the dreaded Flyers, but our Pens did not disappoint in the second!  Dropping the gloves were Mike Comrie for the Penguins and Maxim Lapierre of the Canadiens.  Welcome to the Pens, Comrie!

(Video courtesy of Hockeyfights.com)

Well, okay, maybe the Penguins did disappoint.

Lapierre smacked Kris Letang hard against the boards, and Comrie was ready and willing to drop the gloves to stick up for him.  Unfortunately, that's about as far as it got, as both men simply spun around a bit tossing shots that either didn't connect hard or didn't connect at all.  After a questionable camera switch to Mike Rupp (which made me assume the game was being aired on NBC), Comrie apparently got bored of the non-fight and fell to the ice, pulling Lapierre down with him.  This one would be a draw.

For those of you not familiar with this Pensburgh feature, after providing video of the fight and giving my opinion on it, I offer a poll to you, the eager community to weigh in and prove me wrong.  So, people...who won the fight?

I’d say Comrie lost this fight, but he had already won once he dropped the gloves. When you’re sticking up for a teammate, it doesn’t really matter what happens.

Sticking up for a teammate is always great in my book

Yeah, the pussy refused to go with Rupp so he goes with Comrie.
Then he baits Talbot. How that isn’t at least an unsportsmanlike penalty is beyond me.

Exactly. Makes me wish Godard was on the ice.

Maybe we get luck one day he baits Geno who goes score all over his sorry butt

Comrie looked so little in that fight: I’m amazed he managed to land any punches at all!

Lapierre is a punk, and I can’t believe what he got away with in last night’s game.

Seriously

It was more of a self reminder that I am chatting with a 16 year old girl and I should be very careful about what I write. I don’t want to write anything inappropriate.It’s bad enough that sometimes I feel a bit creepy reading some stuff on here and remembering you’re a teenager.

Lol you’d be surprised what 16 year olds see, hear, and do these days. Unless you’re a horrible person , I think you’re fine.

Depends on the team and how desparate I am.
Right now, I’m wearing the black-and-gold glasses that made my head hurt, wearing my Pens hat and various Crosby shirts (except the Canada jersey because it’s red, like the Devils logo)
Also, wearing as much black/yellow/gold as possible, and other colours as little as possible

PF killed it with her lack of a prominent display of 87. The presence of Sid and Geno make up for it though

Someone found the picture without the girls’ faces blurred, and I forgot who they were, but they’re not random girls (some movie stars/singers or something)

He definitely did used to look like Sid though, although not as much as Sven Kramer. Now that I actually look at that picture, it’s pretty obvious that it’s Sid’s face and Sid’s sweater.

He’s horrible. Gotta love the way he was clutching his face last season when being beaten up by one of the Islanders. He sure can dish it out but can’t take it himself. In fact, he turns turtle at the first opportunity. I know I said I couldn’t wait for Byfuglien to sit on Mike Green. That has now changed to this loser.
