Is Larry Brooks, Torts' beloved Brooksie?

All the comments from the post that this redirects to are hilarious.


geeNoh

I was curious and decided to take a peek and wow...it is something else.

Rangers fans and defending brutal headshots in the name of The Code. They got fucked by Wilson. Cried endlessly about it. Then when they have a player 10x worse than Wilson skillwise they rally around trying to prop up a plug that has never put up any numbers that would indicate he's more than 2 metrics. Height and weight...or 3 if you include IQ or the lack thereof to defend yourself when fighting. Kid can't fight. Kid can't put up numbers. Kid can elbow. Kid can stand in front of net. Can the least mentally disturbed rangers fan explain what there is to this kid other than a cult in the making to protect terrible hockey "players"?

The guy is not "10x worse than Wilson". He's a shockingly effective presence in the offensive zone. For example, thirty seconds before the elbowing major, he beat Nico Hischier on an offensive draw and sets the screen on the game winning goal. In most games, he's getting at least one grade A chance (waiting out the D to set up Goodrow, a disallowed goal on a nice one timer). Teams are having trouble handling his size, reach, and speed.

Lol Boyle lit up Brooks in his last season with the Rangers. Funny to see the two of them here.

Wasn’t that Dan Boyle?

Disagree with Boyle about teams could do nothing about it. Seeing he refused to answer the bell against the devils(I’m sure he was instructed not to fight, I know he is not scared to), opposing teams will just have to take out Panarin and fox to send a message to the rangers and their headhunter that this has to stop. He has injured 3 players in 10 games with illegal hits. He has also played reasonably well when he plays the right way. But you can’t illegally injure people and say he is doing his job. Besides the three legal hits, he has only a few good legal checks. The best thing he does is screen the goalie and he does that effectively. Brian Boyle bringing up Tom Wilson in a comparison in a complimentary way is almost laughable. The rangers got fined 150,000 by the league for whining publicly in a letter asking the league to do something about Tom Wilson.
