While Cookie took a dive after a tap from DiPietro, Johnston called DiPietro out and then the fireworks began!
And this was a real grown up, punch throwing, John Wayne, big-boy, throw-down Pilgrim and poor Rick DiPietro got the worst of it! One punch from Brent Johnson and DiPietro dropped like Ovi on Kris Letang on a Sunday morning! The best part was seeing The Flower about to pee his drawers when Johnson skated off the ice! Because you know Flower would never dust-up his mug. He uses his mouth, not his fists.

I think the Penguins have been practicing the one-punch knockdown lately. Either that or Jordan Staal bet Johnny he couldn’t do it too.
Johnny was jealous of all the attention Flower is getting for being so adorable/hilarious/French/spontaneous. This was the only available option! Sorry to BU alum Ricky D, but don’t try to fight with the big boys. Maybe challenge Mike Green next time.
I adore goalie fights. As Matty D said, it’s like two guys fighting in those inflatable Sumo wrestling suits.
PS: “…like Ovi on Kris Letang on a Sunday morning.” I just threw up in my mouth, Dawn!
I can’t let it go … I am OBSESSED! 😉 But you secretly LOVE IT!
Fleury’s face was PRICELESS but I didn’t want to see Rick get hurt because he’s a tasty treat, too hot for that face to get messed up and been too injured to suffer more. the only thing better would have been the pink pads!
I keep watching this. I LOVE THIS TEAM. MAF makes my day complete.
