Downie getting crushed. If this video doesn't show for you, please click the link below. After watching a lot of Downie's "highlights" and I use that term loosely I am really surprised he even is at the play level he is on. If you look at any of his video's you will see the temper in this kid that shouldn't be brought out in a professional sport other than UFC. He lets his temper get the best of him and doesn't have any regard for anyone else on the ice.
That being said, check out this video.

You can search a lot of his YouTube videos, in this video he is sitting there heckling the guy to fight him and the guy wouldn't... this kid really needs to be released.

Disgrace to hockey in general, least that's one man's opinion.
Cheers
He doesn't deserve to ever play the game of hockey again. I don't care if it's in North America or Europe. I don't care what league it is or how professional the league is, Downie is a disgrace and needs to meet Laraque face to face.
the guy is a straight up punk. Perfect fit for the flyers
you act like you have never seen a guy like this before... darius kasparaitis, tie domi, chris simon, chris neil, etc all come to mind. im not saying downie shouldnt recieve some sort of penalty for this - but jesus looking for the friggin death sentence here. todd bertuzzi puts a young star out of the game of hockey and is allowed to come back. how about dino ciccarelli hitting luke richardson with the stick and getting to come back and play almost 10 more seasons? honestly people are going over the deep end.
the clip with the stick work is just plain embarrassing to hockey, this guy is about as cool as that music on his youtube clip.
I agree Buff.
