He's tough...He's a hockey player! What a unique way to score a goal...last night I couldn't believe it when I saw it. haha

Draper...Gawd you gotta love Canadian hockey players!
6 stitches and lost teeth and right back on the ice.
Upon closer inspection of the video review...those teeth also ended up in the net...so who says there is no tooth fairy.
Grinning...The Pens are about to get a "bite" of reality finally. Wings in 6.

Couldn't agree with you more baun. If Crosby took a hit in the mouth like thet it would probably knock his upper lip growth off,( Can't call that a mustache).Plus he would never have made it back in the game. Quite the tooth in the mouth play though. Talk about giving up the body. What about the nasty crosscheck he took right after the play. Crosby would have been crying a river to the ref.

Did you watch the Link Joe...still lmao.
If I have to choose a player to build a team around...I'm takin Ovie overall.

Ha hahahahahahaha. Laughed til I fell on the floor. Used it on the main sport page link with a lot of guins on that site. Have to agree about Ovech. One of the best in the league

What a guy Chris Draper is! Instead of going down like he was shot, he swallowed his teeth and put the puck in the net!

What chance did the Stars have when those guys can score on you even with their theeth?

Should be a great finals!

DCruiser | 05/20/08, 11:35 AM

that was some play He's a tough guy

Spiny Norman | 05/20/08, 12:00 PM

isn't Draper the guy Claude lemuiex plastered into the boards (from behind)?

Spiny Norman | 05/20/08, 12:10 PM

sure is, Spiny.

And what a job by a character guy! Before the game everybody was talking about lack of secondary scoring and how Drapes hadn't scored in 12 games, well, looks like problem solved, if you ask me. Give Franzen another 3-4 days of rest and you'll see him in the lineup for Game 1, and they will be back to firing on all cylinders. What a Final we got coming up, huh? Could be the highest quality hockey we've seen in the Final in decades!

goCanada! is a happy man! | 05/20/08, 12:17 PM

actually, the title of this article made me think of Mike Piazza more than Draper...

Spiny Norman | 05/20/08, 12:17 PM

real players score when it matters. Any idiot can light it up in the reguar season. Show me what you've got in May and june..(as far as the NHL goes)
Great, score 100 goals if you want...but let's see them after April

Spiny Norman | 05/20/08, 12:20 PM

And, of course, everyone knows what Draper's nickname is, right?

Nails.

That's the difference between players like Draper and Lupul. One scores anyway he can when it really counts, the other one fills the net when it doesn't really matter.

DCruiser | 05/20/08, 02:32 PM

More credit should be given to Drake for banking it off his head. That takes skill to aim it at the chin and to hit his mark. the Wings need Franzen big time in the Final. Pens in 6.

bostongm | 05/20/08, 03:04 PM

This game suckxd

OtherOne81 | 05/20/08, 03:28 PM

Talk about takin' one for the team.....!

Therrien Rocks | 05/20/08, 04:16 PM

well he can't score with his stick, might as well use his teeth!

wingsfan#1 | 05/20/08, 05:27 PM
