Y-Hat posted:Does Lou Lamariello regret letting going of Claude Julien and seeing him thrive in Boston, or is he incapable of remorse? Claude Julien was a game 7 win against Montreal away from getting fired. Lou fired him despite NJ making the playoffs with a really good record. There was clearly something else going on there. I doubt Lou is remorseful about that one. e: Fighting is limited because there are fewer goons dressing, and the ones that do know that their role is to play hockey to the best of their limited abilities and avoid taking a stupid penalty. The fights that happen during the playoffs are usually suitably epic (Carkner on Boyle from a few years ago, the Vinny Iggy fight are two that stand out to me from relatively recent history).

Mario was a freak. Allegedly couldn't bench a plate when he came into the league, and said the gym was for suckers until later in his career. In terms of raw hockey talent he was of course right, it didn't matter, but you have to wonder if his attitude towards general fitness was a factor in some (obviously not all) of his injuries later on. E: my favorite injury story is Patrick Roy leaving his hospital bed to go win a playoff game after getting his appendix removed.
