When A NHL Pre-Season Game Got Out of Hand...

#nhl #hockey #torontomapleleafs

In a pre-season game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Buffalo Sabres, things got out of hand between elite sniper Phil Kessel & Enforcer John Scott.

Never heard anyone describe Kessel as slim.

i always loved the dichotomy of "i'm gonna beat you up" and "what?"

That John Scott all star game was the greatest all star game the NHL ever put on. The players and viewers both had shit eating grins on their faces throughout it. You had to feel good for the guy. It was great to see the league look stupid after that. I loved it. That was the last all star game that I watched, and it will likely stay that way.

I remember this game vividly. Great moment from that era of the NHL

As a Buffalonian I appreciate you hitting the way back machine on this one. So weird looking back and seeing the last years of what had been a fun Sabres era. Here’s to us finally not sucking this season 🍻

Epic video. Great breakdown of one of the best games I've ever seen. Phil went full Michael Myers on Scott lmao

During that scrum I didn't like either player. Well how times change, now Hotdog-Phil Kessel is a champ that I'll always remember fondly for embracing the hotdogs. John Scott turned out into the biggest feel good story I can remember from NHL and he's forever the beloved all-star captain. His stories about career of enforcer just won me over totally.

i love how in these kinds of videos, you take the time to dive deeper into each player’s character and their background leading up to the moment. you could just as easily tell the story in black & white how it is, but providing the color to the picture is what makes these videos so good. great job and keep up the good work

I remember being at this game and the fans going absolutely nuts.

Really nicely done video! Perfect timing and well written and edited! Good mix of stats, background and wrap-up to the key players involved.

That Clarkson pickup was awful. This game was a glimpse of things to come

Absolutely love me some John Scott. By far one of the chillest dudes off the ice.

This is the best hockey youtube channel i have ever seen in my life, period.

[slakcheetah]

I love this channel, I’m still fairly new to hockey and these videos have been both enlightening and entertaining to me

Phil looked like Shoresy with the two hand chop.🤣🤣🤣🤣

[jtotheroc]

Phil has hotdogs and cheesy nachos on his side...wtf does John Scott have??

[danevertt]

I love John Scott;

“Aw aww I’m bleeding”

“ no your not”

This was on Carlyle for throwing Kessel to John Scott like a pork chop without telling him what he was getting himself into. The NHL bullied Scott to drop out of the All-Star game and then drove him out of the league when he didn't back down. The NHL brass have no class.

Knew before I even clicked that this was about the legend Phil Kessel
