  1. And before anyone comes in here and says says Howe never had a Gordie Howe hat trick, I’m calling bullshit. Howe had plenty of of games with a goal and an assist and you would have me believe he never got in a fight in one of those? Gordie Howe? Yeah, right. He may have never taken a fighting penalty, but this was hockey in the 50’s, you’re damn right he got in a fight.

  2. Watched this from Bally’s sport betting area at Vegas. I won on my whopping $5 bet for the Wings!

  3. Helene St. James: “Do you even remember the last time you fought?”

    Pavel Datsyuk: “Yeah, it was like…fifteen minutes ago, wasn’t it?”

    Really funny guy when he got a good one in. 😂

    I have a photo of this fight signed by him hanging in my office.
