Jmorc2003 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 (edited) This is going to sound like a joke, but it's not, I swear. Why the utter hatred for Pronger? I saw he stomped a player and gave a dirty elbow across the middle (both horrible, I agree), but it seems like he works up a disgust like few other players. I don't like him, and I'm not sticking up for him, at all (being on the flyers doesn't help). Just curious. Is there more? Asking because I missed a good chunk of years following hockey (used to follow religiously when I was younger, and just recently came back, but casually. Just came back last season to follow closely). Edited December 12, 2011 by Jmorc2003 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepperkorn Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 (edited) well -- in all honesty it's because he IS a cheap pig with zero humility - no problem in and of itself -- BUT he also won the Norris & Hart trophies and thinks deep in his heart he's a better defenceman than Scott Stevens. and he's not. but he and others can say he is. so I hate him.

Jmorc2003 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 pronger's a fvcking dirtbag Yeah, but what makes him a f**king dirtbag? Did he do something specific in addition to the 3 dirty cheap shots I could find. Again, not defending the guy or asking with any sort of agenda. These sort of responses have me curious.

adam85491 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 He throws cheap shots every game. He steals pucks. He's garbage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parisalchuk Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Yeah, but what makes him a f**king dirtbag? Did he do something specific in addition to the 3 dirty cheap shots I could find. Again, not defending the guy or asking with any sort of agenda. These sort of responses have me curious. When he comes back, watch some of the games he plays in. He is just an all around dirtbag that has absolutely no respect for any opposing player on the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin226 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Good point.. When the hell is Giroux going to get injured? It's pissing me off Looks like I put the hex on Giroux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Pronger was back on the Ducks I remember him clotheslining Parise at the end of a game when Zach wasn't even looking. I've disliked him ever since.

Colin226 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Pronger is a POS no doubt.. Is it wrong to celebrate inside when he gets hurt? I fully admit that it probably is, but I don't care.. He has no problem being a douche and making dangerous plays 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLL765 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I agree with everyone here. The guy is a dirty hit factory. Loves to throw sneaky elbows when the other guy isn't looking, yet still thinks he's a world class guy. Screw him. I hope his career's over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SterioDesign Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 damn Pronger may be out for the rest of the season... i really dont want that... they are playing well without him and with his cap off on LTIR they could attract a real good dman... which is what we're probably also gonna be looking for... they are far more attractive than we are i think too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devilsrule33 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I do wonder if this is true, or if the Flyers just want there to be no distractions with his recovery and return timetable like it seemed to be with the Penguins and Crosby for the last year. Either way, hope he fully recovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
