Jimmy Howards rumbles with St. Louis Blues Player

Found December 06, 2011 on Diehardsport: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Jimmy Howard,  David Perron,  Johan Franzen
TEAMS: Detroit Red Wings,  St. Louis Blues
Detroit_red_wings_f701
Detroit Red Wings goalie Jimmy Howard lost his cool on Tuesday night after getting run into by Blues’ winger, David Perron. Howard was a little upset with the contact from the forward. He immediately went after Perron and caused a rumble behind the net. The Wings goaltender responded after the game saying, “I’m not taking that. If you’re going to try and run me like that, you’re going to pay the price.” Howard also had a second period assist to Johan Franzen, but it was the Blues who recorded their second win over the Wings this season, 3-2.
