Thanks DLo we still love backes out here
Good Cliffy!
I love fourth line grinder fights
Clean hit. Got right back up. HOW ABOUT WE KEEP PLAYING HOCKEY!?!??!?!?!?!? PLEASE
Good scrap
Great hit!!! GO DUCKS!!!! Great win this evening! I do get sick of the referees breaking a fight up before it’s over though. God.
One of the few things positive for Anaheim this season is Deslauriers..he's a fan favorite already, bottom 6 grinder. And just got a new contract. Hope he stays for a while. They need a sandpaper guy like him.
I am digging Clifford. That is what the Leafs need, besides D. Toughess!
really helped pull out the win LOL
Dam they could’ve kept goin
Why tf is any player supposed to honor any fighting "code" for clean hit. Deslauriers needs to honor the code and show some respect for a clean hit.
I miss Deslauriers
This is why the Habs will miss the playoffs again under "Bergeron of the Shire"….
Bergeron lets all the Men leave the Habs (Shaw,Deslauriers,Kaspian etc).. then goes to the Shire to recruit. We are the laughing stock joke of the league…(except for Weber)
Love fighting but hate how they come about now it’s just dumb
Wish someone would just rock these linemen one of these days..
I love that we have Clifford now but damn Deslauriers is a team guy!
I remember when BIG JAMIE O of Dallas literally beat delores down!!
Seeing backes get laid out by a leaf… almost a year late
"How dare you deliver a great, clean hit. I'll trade a scoring opportunity to get punched in the face"
NHL fights are so lame.
Great fight between these two
I'm really excited to have Clifford on the leafs, we've needed a guy just like this for a long time, can lay a clean hit and go toe to toe
Good clean hit !!
Backes is a mere shadow of what he was. He needs to retire as he is just making a fool of himself at this point…..granted a ridiculously well paid fool, but a fool none the less.
2020 NHL= No clean hits allowed
if i was carter rowney i’d be absolutely livid, just dangled someone was about to score and the whistle blew
Why even have the instigator rule if it's never gonna get called. Deslaurier should have gotten an extra 2 min for starting a fight because of a beautifully clean hit
Deslauriers: I could go for a scrap! You good for a scrap?
Clifford: I’m good for a scrap!

Even if you hate the Leafs you have to love seeing Backes rocked. Biggest spot picker in NHL history.
Hockey is the only sport where a fight can be a compliment or an honor of sorts. It’s awesome.
Clean hit…. Deslauriers should have gotten the extra 2… NHL chickenshit bullshit.
When did the ducks pick up backes lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nothing better than Backes getting dummied
Under rated dangle
