Ryan Wilson: Is Matt Cooke Worth the Trouble?

Is Matt Cooke worth the trouble? That is a question the Penguins organization, specifically Ray Shero, is going to have to ask when potential negotiations begin. Cooke is a double edged sword. It is no secret that he is a lightning rod for hate around the league. Obviously Cooke is guilty of committing some of the dirtier plays that we have seen in the past number of years (I’m...

Will Mandatory visors for new NHL players portends fighting’s demise

This didn’t take long for the anti-fighting cabal to be jump on this one. Fighting isn’t going away in the NHL. If you took fighting away in the NHL, the Matt Cooke type players in the NHL would flourish. Again, I suggest getting rid of the instigator penalty. The Globe and Mail – We may be too optimistic. Perhaps an enterprising enforcer will invent an ejectable visor...

Matt Cooke gets into it with Bruins fans while in penalty box

This video is exactly why CBC’s coverage of the NHL Playoffs is infinitely better than NBC’s.  CBC’s cameras managed to catch this exchange when Pittsburgh Penguins forward Matt Cooke went to the penalty box.  I would love to know what was said between the Bruins fans chirping at Cooke and what Cooke said back to them.  For those that don’t know, Boston Bruins fans hate...

Bruins-Penguins: B’s Fans Heckle & Harass The Ass Named Matt Cooke (VIDEO)

Pens goon Matt Cooke got an earful from Bruins fans in the penalty box in Game Three. And it was glorious. No one deserves taunting and ball busting more than this “Re-Born” tool bag.  Every Bruins fan must of got out of their seats and off their couches when Looch threw that puke around in the corner. Of course, Cooke went in to the fetal position praying Looch did not rearrange...

Boston Bruins Fans Harass Matt Cooke In the Penalty Box During Game 3

A.B. I love everything about this. First, I love Matt Cooke being in the penalty box because if I had it my way, he would live in that f*cking thing. Cooke is absolutely the dirtiest player in the NHL. He should send a thank you note to Gary Bettman everyday that he is allowed to set foot in an NHL arena. Grade A scumbag. Secondly, that dude in the upper left flexing and losing his...

Bruins-Penguins: Lucic’s Beat Down Of Cooke Looks A Lot Like Neely’s Pummeling Of Ulfie (VIDEOS)

Bruins forward Milan Lucic did what everyone wants to do to the Pens’ Matt Cooke…kick his cheapshotting ass. The Boston Bruins hate Matt Cooke especially after running Adam McQuaid through the boards earlier in the series and ending Marc Savard’s career in 2010. Re-born my ass….. Milan Lucic’s beat down of Cooke looked a lot like Cam Neely’s pummeling of Ulf Samuelsson...

Bruins fans harass Matt Cooke in penalty box

Matt Cooke is notoriously know as one of the most disliked players in the NHL. It’s no secret that Bruins fans have a great disdain for him after what he did to Marc Savard back in 2010, so I’m sure Cooke wasn’t surprised to get this response when he entered the penalty box in Boston last night during Game 3. Cooke seems to be enjoying the role of “bad guy” in this situation...

Why the NHL Needs to Stop the Flop @Evil_Shero

To me, this is hockey. It's tough, it's brutal, it's violent, there is lots to love about the fastest sport on Earth. There has been a small trickle in of embellishment in the past few season in the NHL and not cracking down now will make a mockery of the sport we love.The most recent incident was in the Eastern Conference Finals.  Matt Cooke hit Bruins defensemen Adam...

Video: Brad Marchand scores goal, lets Matt Cooke know about it

This was probably the goal of the game to me. The Penguins had literally just scored after replacing their goalie. It seemed like all the momentum was on their side, and then Marchand just sticks a pin in their balloon seconds later.Awesome to see Marchand talking trash to the scumbag Matt Cooke afterwards.Via Boston Bruins Facebook Group

Brad Marchand, Matt Cooke Have Words Before Bruins Forward Takes Off, Scores Goal (Video)

Brad Marchand‘s second goal of the game in Game 2 against the Penguins pretty much summed up all you needed to know about the second game of the Eastern Conference final. The pesky Bruins forward got the B’s on the board just 28 seconds into the game, but it was his second goal of the period that really put the final nail in the coffin, even in the first period. Just 25 seconds...

(Click your mouse on the picture to get the picture to move)... What's that thing about karma? You can also tell who the actual skilled player is.  I think this is better than revenge. It's also a good example of how effective that the Boston Bruins have been in getting the Pittsburgh Penguins off of their game. I also believe, that the Bruins have also done a very good...

Brad Marchand trash talks Matt Cooke, burns him for goal (Video)

There were plenty of individual cases of embarrassment for the Pittsburgh Penguins on Monday night, as they lost to the Bruins 6-1 to dig themselves into an early 2-0 hole in the Eastern Conference Finals. For starters, you had Sydney Crosby turning the puck over to spot the Bruins a lead 28 seconds into the [...]

Matt Cooke and the Downfall of Perception @MadChad412

Matt Cooke is by far public enemy number one in the NHL. The man is hated by pretty much all fan-bases. Literally, Ottawa Senators fans even threw a "Matt Cooke hate fest" rally during the regular season this year. Cooke's reputation is terrible and in the past he's deserved this terrible reputation, but enough is enough.Cooke's reputation shouldn't dictate...

Bruins-Penguins: 8 Year Old Makes Series Prediction Through Art & It’s PRICELESS (PHOTO)

(PHOTO: Reddit) You have to love kids and the things they say and do.  Nothing like the pure innocence of youth. This 8 year old Bruins fan puts the NHL pundits to shame with his ECF prediction.  Boston is indeed on their way of taking a dump on Pittsburgh after their Game One shutout win. This young artist needs to make sure the hot steaming poop lands on Matt Cooke’s face.
