Tyler: Typical Dominik Hasek, Flopping all over the place to draw a penalty. I won’t deny the fact that Hasek is one of the best goaltenders in NHL history, but that doesn’t stop me from saying that Hasek had an ego the size of Quebec. For example: Do you remember his 12 shot shut-out and his comments after the game?
“I think, maybe, when it’s only 12 shots, it maybe shouldn’t count. You know?”
It was clear that Scott Hannan did put his hands on Hasek, but come on! He barely touched him, I can’t even describe what happened in this video, all I can say is, Hannan hardly grazed Hasek and he fell over like he had been shot. It was ridiculous and this is one of the reasons I have absolutely no respect for him.
Andy: Dominik Hasek’s style? No way! Scott Hannan was pushed into Hasek. He could have either gone head first into Hasek or stopped the fall with his hands. He grabbed on to Hasek, and then tried to get back on his feet. Remember Tyler, this is ice hockey. It’s not as easy to get back on your feet as it would be if you were playing soccer. Despite the fact that this was accidental, and not on purpose. He took Hasek down and it was goalie interference, but definitely accidental. Hasek did not flop over.
Tyler: Yes, it was an accident that Hannan “hit” him, but Hasek was flopping over like a fish out of water, as he always does. Hannan barely put a finger on Hasek, but as soon he feels something touch him he drops and starts to whine more than Sid Crosby.
