Does anyone else hate Roberts as much as I do?

Question

I know it's the playoffs and you want to do anything you can to win; but I feel there should be some honor and respect for the game no matter what. And sucker punching a guy whose just come back from a concussion is pretty low. It almost borders intent to injure. I appreciate the physical aspect of the game, but more than that, I appreciate the respect most players have for one another, Roberts clearly doesn't. Agree? Disagree?

Answer 1

He has diabetes, leave him alone!

Francis Boullion of Montreal and Steve Downie of Philly truly have no class.... And then there's Sean Avery...

Answer 2

Yeah Datsyuk threw down with Roberts. That's way too awesome.

Answer 3

Such a GOON. Pavel knocked him in the head a couple times though. Downey needs to get in there when Detroit's up by 3 next game.

Answer 4

No. He's better than malone.

Answer 5

No, its just you.

Answer 6

He is a jerk.  Not a very classy player.  See what he even did to Franzen?  Even on Franzen's first day back from a concussion.

Steve - Downie's got more class then you'll ever have :P

Answer 7

I cannot believe Roberts and the other Penguin took those cheap shots at Franzen. Talk about losers !

Answer 8

dude Datsyuk turned into a badass all the sudden when he was wailing on that dude

Answer 9

yes kimberly he did do something wrong, he sucker-punched a player. franzen was not looking at him and roberts hit him square in the face. concussion or not, the act was cheap. do not simply be a sore loser since your penguins did not win.

Answer 10

No, i ♥ gary roberts!

Answer 11

Datsyuk showed how real hockey players play tonight.  He embarrassed Roberts.

Oh, fun fact.

Franzen was only in for 1/2 of the series, and he single-handedly has more points than the entire Pens team.

Answer 12

He's a jerk. Another one of thoses classless turds. Kinda like Scott Stevens.

Tell me if my eyes deceived me, but was that Datsyuk wailing on Roberts at the end?

Answer 13

it's hockey. if the guy just came back from being injured, that obviously means that he believes he's ready to play hockey. in the game of hockey, you don't come back unless you're ready to be hit, punched and knocked around a bit. Roberts isn't about to just let something slide off his back just because the guy that's been bothering him had a concussion.

don't come back if you're not ready.. Roberts' did nothing wrong.
