@@pancake105 the Avs have faces big physical teams for years & still put it on them they’ll be fine lmao & mack aim small or weak AT ALL what players are beating his ass? Hahahahaha maybe Reeves but who isn’t losing to him. You make no sense
I love how MacKinnon rarely ever throws hits during his “fights” he usually just goes straight for rag-dolling and it’s a great way to make the other guy look really silly.
MacKinnon simply out-wrestled a smaller player. Caving a guy's face in with your fists is a better way to make a guy look silly and make him pay for a dirty hit.
Good for Mackinnon but honestly I didn't see a malicious play there. He didn't try to take out his feet, girard was already falling by the time Leblanc made any sort of contact with him.
True, but seeing it in real time while viewing it from behind often makes the play seem worse especially if it’s your teammate that falls hard against the boards. Announcers are lost since they didn’t catch it on the replay.
I don't think there was intent, but there's a lot of ways it could have been avoided. And keep in mind this happened *after* Ryan Graves had already left the game from (I believe) a high elbow in the first period. Avs essentially lost two of their top four defenseman to avoidable hits in this game, and against a team that is frankly irrelevant to the post season to boot.
Marchand and Lucic would do these sort of things all the time throughout the 2010’s. Yes, it was intentional, and yes, it’s supposed to look like it’s not. Even before the collision, you can audibly hear Avs teammates yelling “move!” at Girard, because Lebanc is coming in hot. Do not take that out of context.
@@treymagathan847 You must be blind to think that was intentional....i guess your Ray Charles eyes missed the fact that Girard had lost his edge and THEN a bit of contact from Lablanc's hip? There was NOTHING intentional that happened on this play. I suggest you go back and watch it a few more times.
I will agree Lebanc did have zero ill intent however he did under cut Girard's legs with his backside momentum when he decided to corral the puck and go back to back as Girard had already turned, if he was going in to challenge like that he should of just took Girard to the boards which is what Girard was expecting. It was definitely a fast play and split second decision that ended up unfortunate for both players though.

That hit turned out to be dangerous yeah but I don't think Labanc ever intended it to be. Girard tried to stop before hitting the boards, couldn't and Labanc was finishing a check on someone he didn't expect to lean into him. Just one of those situations where there wasn't an intention but it turned into something a lot more vicious

Could be debated. Looked like Girard was going to keep cutting to the back of the net and Labanc cut his route by taking the inside lane. Wouldn't say it was intentional but it wasn't a safe maneuver, and one where he put Girard in a pretty bad spot.
@@OutLivex Girard had already lost his edge before a slight nudge by Leblanc's hip. Nobody would be here talking about this if he never lost his edge. Go back and watch again, so you can come back and delete this uneducated comment.

Watched the game last night as a fan of neither team..it was my first time watching the Colorado feed and their announcers may be some of the hardest to listen too in the league
I like Mackinnon, but Lebanc is not a dirty player & that was just an angle play. Nothing really here - even minor scrap. Lebanc is from Brooklyn, so you’re not going to punk him.
Absolutely love how Burns stops the ref from interfering or stopping the fight. Could also done that to stop him from catching a fist. Let them go. The way it should be
Either way, he makes contact with him which causes the spill. He may not of hit him, but to pitchfork/hook the guy at that position is dirty. You look at the play Labanc clearly cause him to fall on that play.
I think we forget that Mac boxes in the off-season and that this guy is a strong and powerful dude in general, surprised he doesn’t fight more often cause I feel like he could absolutely maul someone at times
Not a dirty hit but Girard probably wouldn't have lost an edge if Lebanc didn't take the inside lane of Girards path of travel to behind the net. Just a bad situation while chasing the puck, type of dangerous play that we see less cause of the icing rule changes.
They're showing it in slow motion, but that's not how it happened in real time. If Labanc wasn't there, Girard wouldn't have fallen as hard as he did. That being said I don't think it was a dirty play, just two guys going for the puck
@barrie22 Well when someone is right on you when you're both going for the puck then yea you're bound to make more mistakes than if you're skating on your own... I guess you've never played hockey before lol. Yes Girard stumbles but Labanc's slight nudge with his backside easily sent him harder into the boards and he wasn't expecting it. You're arguing a point from watching it in slow mo. You can't judge a play in slow motion since that's not how it actually happened in real time. Again it's not a dirty play, just two guys going for the puck
In Colorado Av's Announcer language, "Nobody really landed anything" is translated as "An Avalanche player was punched in the face by a smaller player he shouldn't have started on."
Yeah, I dont know what Leblanc was supposed to do. He didnt take out the defensemans legs, the guy lost his balance and it looked like Leblanc let up a bit.

Game after game I wonder how MacKinnon isn't the captain of this team. I love Gabriel Landeskog but Nathan has just been on fire for the past few seasons and is always stepping up in huge moments for the avs. Kid deserves a big letter C by now
Nate doesn't like talking to the press. Landy always steps up for an interview in the event of a big loss. Represents the organization thru thick & thin. That's why Landy gets the C. Judging from how MacK acted when Mikko got an A this year, he'd rather have Mikko or Landy wear the C over him.
He’s a on ice leader, but best players should be focused on playing, not leading. A team captain could easily go to Bellemare even though he’s not even top 6, but he’s good at being a leader in and off the ice. Leadership is about more than playing the game
Labanc didn't take Girard's feet out. Girard leaned into a hit that Labanc didn't throw and threw himself off balance into the boards awkwardly. Unfortunate play.
Nothing looked wrong with what Labanc did, he just took him past the net to the boards. Mackinnon didn't even throw a punch, he's the only one who took a hit to the face, how was this a fight.
I don't get all these "good for MacKinnon" comments. Maybe it's good for MacKinnon for some reason, i don't know what's good in it though. But it's definitely bad for Colorado. Exchange a player of 90+ points caliber for a player of 40+ caliber and getting additional 2 min penalty is anything but 'good'
Apparently, it's not bad for Colorado because they won the game. The penalty cost them nothing and it showed that MacKinnon will stick up for his teammates when opponents make stupid, reckless plays.
@@nolanderish they don’t see it in super slow mo like your fatass on the couch lol not dirty but if Labanc want there Girard doesn’t go into the boards
Nice land there BIG MACK! If the referees don't do something about the excessive intent to injure division rivals to bench star players, then Big Mack & Landy will take it into their own hands. Different dynamic within the division, this year. Only see the same 7-8 teams all season then the top 4 duke it out in the first round of the post season. You think the NHL would have the sense to anticipate these hostilities.
MacKinnon got grapefruits I will give him that. But is he should learn to fight if he if gong to drop the gloves. Every “fight” of his I see him eating punches and saves himself by ragdolling the guys to the ground.

He’s a on ice leader, but best players should be focused on playing, not leading. A team captain could easily go to Bellemare even though he’s not even top 6, but he’s good at being a leader in and off the ice.
Leadership is about more than playing the game
Labanc didn't take Girard's feet out. Girard leaned into a hit that Labanc didn't throw and threw himself off balance into the boards awkwardly. Unfortunate play.
Nothing looked wrong with what Labanc did, he just took him past the net to the boards. Mackinnon didn't even throw a punch, he's the only one who took a hit to the face, how was this a fight.
Does the fight mean Mack's streak continues?
The CODE
Kevin Labanc says oof at 0:36
Mackinnon is a beast, he does it all. Very underated!!!
"Beast "you tried to mean?
@@GutoSantanaOops, yea thanks ;D
Never touched his feet
I really don't like the tone of blue colorado uses on their jerseys now
Шлем не снял, а так, конечно, мужик, что вступился!
ну это же не бой тафгаев, а профилактические пиздюли
No sportsnet this is actually not a fight
I don’t think a single punched landed
Clickbait title
Love it
Mackinnon is STRONG. He doesn’t look that big but he’s rag dolled a couple of guys now.
Does the league realize that by trying to prevent fighting (as the refs tried to do in this clip) that more players end up getting hurt from bad hits?
I don't get all these "good for MacKinnon" comments. Maybe it's good for MacKinnon for some reason, i don't know what's good in it though. But it's definitely bad for Colorado. Exchange a player of 90+ points caliber for a player of 40+ caliber and getting additional 2 min penalty is anything but 'good'
Apparently, it's not bad for Colorado because they won the game. The penalty cost them nothing and it showed that MacKinnon will stick up for his teammates when opponents make stupid, reckless plays.
my friend on my team is like mac he has all of the skill and he bodies the kids on the other team if they mess with us. lol
Макинон 👍👍👍💪💪💪
WTF was that Kevin????
Lol you can see Girad lose an edge and Labanc didn’t put any weight on him.
@@nolanderish they don’t see it in super slow mo like your fatass on the couch lol not dirty but if Labanc want there Girard doesn’t go into the boards
Nice land there BIG MACK! If the referees don't do something about the excessive intent to injure division rivals to bench star players, then Big Mack & Landy will take it into their own hands. Different dynamic within the division, this year. Only see the same 7-8 teams all season then the top 4 duke it out in the first round of the post season. You think the NHL would have the sense to anticipate these hostilities.
Avs commentators are quite biased imo.
MacKinnon got grapefruits I will give him that. But is he should learn to fight if he if gong to drop the gloves. Every “fight” of his I see him eating punches and saves himself by ragdolling the guys to the ground.
