Biggest Hit You've Ever Seen?

Grotting beating up White is classic as well

Yep, gotta love someone going bananas on someone when that person only tried to keep them from jumping on one of their teammates from behind. Not to mention throwing punches when he is down on the ice unable to protect himself.

The one and only time I went to UND to watch a game, I took Dirty's mom into the bathroom..she definitely wasn't able to walk afterward.

She said you weren't that good. Hence no caramel rolls for you.

This must have been around 92-94 or so.

I was at the Bradley Center for the Badger Hockey Showdown and UW's Dan Plante (5'11, 215) just "Planted" some poor kid skating with his head down through neutral. Plante had a head of steam and that kid did NOT get up for some time. The hit was clean, and dammit was it a pile driver.

And...it was right in front of us. The crowd just cringed and got pretty fired up after that hit.

Wisconsin Hockey: Danny "Freight Train" Plante.

1991, Big Ben Hankenson introduces Danny Plante to the WCHA with a thunderous check sending him spinning on the ice. I will never forget that one and those boys both came from the greatest public hockey school ever!!!:D

Notice his claim that Pat Eaves broke his own vertebra (not shocking that this is a Maine fan claiming this since it happened vs. Maine).

And of course, he hit Exter, not the other way around.

Rusty Griswald,
you have oddly selective memory, like the BU fans who remember that Roy was hit, illegally from behind.

Eaves skated backward, blindly into a clothesline. 2 players were skating away with the same stick, both thinking it was theirs and Eaves skated backward into it.

Eaves hip checked Exter in the head. (watch the video) ANY classy player does not hit a goalie at full speed, never mind in the head. NEVER. (not even Prestin Ryan... whose hit on Eaves, nobody would ever defend... being an objective fan of HOCKEY, not of Maine, I am not sure why you continue to defend Eaves and his dirty play)

I wonder if the OP is next going to ask for video of children on fire or beheadings of Americans over in the middle east.

Hits where victims do not get up for a while are not cool.
This is why I have examples of some really, really uncool ones.

I'm surprised so many are actually doing his research for him and giving him all the required info to find real hits.

But even with that in mind, I can't believe no one has mentioned the most devastating hit I can remember in college hockey when Rob Stauber (Michigan Tech) layed out Brian Gianta (Iowa State) so hard that the plexiglass shattered, and Gianta's helmut went flying into the first row of seats just a couple years ago. I swear I saw it playing on You Tube but have since lost the link. I'm sure with some good digging the clip could be found.

KIA, as you can see back on page 1, I basically rescinded my post. Although that seems to have been a bad idea judging from your opinion on all things Peaves.

Um, what? Everybody, including BU fans, know that Travis tripped and went head first into the boards. Never ever had I heard one BU fan mention that he was hit illegally from behind and the fact that you even posted that makes me remember how your hatred for BU affects your thought process.
