Chris Neil Not Happy With Hit From Brooks Orpik
from Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun,
"I was going down. I was in vulnerable position. He gave me an extra shove which made me pick up speed going into the boards," said Neil.
"That's the way he plays, he plays a physical game. I wouldn't expect anything less."...
"Playoff hockey your intensity is high out there. You finish checks,"...
(Video) Brooks Orpik hit on Chris Neil
This is the hit that Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Brooks Orpik put on Ottawa Senators forward Chris Neil. There was no penalty called on the play, in my opinion, this was a dangerous hit, but not necessarily dirty, but dangerous.
If you're a fan of the Pittsburgh Penguins you probably think this is a good hockey play. If you're a fan of the Senators, you probably wanted...
Chris Neil elbows P.K. Subban and he embellishes yet again
I thought this was funny, even the announcers think that P.K. Subban embellished in an attempt to get the a call from the referee. I also think this is why some people don't like Subban and his antics. I have said this a thousand times, he's an awesome talent, it's the other crap that takes away from his game. I will give him a 4.5 on that one. If Chris Neil really wanted...
PK Subban levels Chris Neil at center ice
Early in the second period, Montreal Canadiens defenseman PK Subban leveled Ottawa Senators forward Chris Neil. Neil is known as a tough guy who doesn’t get laid out often, but on this one he yardsaled. You could argue that this was a bit of a questionable hit since Subban left his feet, but the referees probably couldn’t tell is if he left his feet because of the momentum...
Milan Lucic and Chris Neil Fight
This is my definition of a heavy weight fight between Boston Bruins forward Milan Lucic and Ottawa Senators forward Chris Neil. After not being in a fight for 26 games, Lucic has now been in a fight in two out of his last three games. With the fight tonight, Lucic has now accumulated five fighting majors for the season. That is also the sixth fighting major of the year for the...
Senators’ Chris Neil destroys Penguins’ Simon Despres
Halfway through the second period of the Ottawa Senators-Pittsburgh Penguins game on Monday night, Senators forward Chris Neil absolutely obliterated Penguins defenseman Simon Despres. Neil was given a two-minute minor for charging on the play, despite the fact that he glided right into Despres. The only reason this was called a penalty was because of the magnitude of the hit...

Chris Neil Is the NHL’s Active Leader in Penalty Minutes
Ottawa Senators winger Chris Neil recorded two shots on goal against the Bruins on Thursday night, but perhaps what is more surprising is the fact that he was able to stay out of the penalty box.
After all, Neil is the NHL’s active leader in penalty minutes with 1,929 to his name over the course of an 11-year NHL career.
The 6-foot-1, 285-pound enforcer’s 68 PIMs so far puts...
