My point being, we have a thread full of haters slinging all sorts of mud at Roy Sr. (who just happens to be the best ever) and now his kid. If I was in a game like that I'd do the same damn thing, whether the coach instructed me to or not!
Fights happen in hockey. Nad(less)eau should've had the balls to defend himself! All this "charge him with assault" business is balderdash! It's a friggin hockey game! It's not like he beat him with a broom handle or pulled an uzi on him! It's not like used his stick or any other piece of his goaltending equipment as a weapon. In my mind, the ONLY time an assault charge should ever even be discussed in reference to a hockey game is when a stick or another piece of equipment that could be considered a weapon is involved. Otherwise, you're playing in a hockey game, and fighting is part of the territory.
