The MacInnis Hull connection immediately brings to mind the memory of when two of the Kings thugs teamed up on Mac, and wound up injuring his shoulder, while Hull, no more than an an arms length away, leaned on his stick and watched, not making so much as an effort to pull one of them off. One of several reasons I applauded when the Blues let him walk at the end of his contract.Ozzies09tc wrote: Fri Jan 24, 2020 2:28 pmOne of the greatest defensemen ever needed a "thug protector" on his pairing or he wouldnt be one of the greatest defenders ever?Dread_Pirate_Westley wrote: Fri Jan 24, 2020 1:31 pmEverything this man just said is 100% fact.barnburner wrote: Fri Jan 24, 2020 1:17 pm
Two way street on this one. Jackman was always there to take on anybody that tried to cheapshot MacInnis, giving Al more room to operate. Prior to the rule changes, Jackman was a stud. Quenneville said that one year, he might have been the best dman in the league. I think that's a little much, but Q said it, obviously he had a very high opinion of Jax.
I dont buy it.
I dont recall twist or chase playing on hull's line much...
