Thanks to Joe Tasca, I'm bringing you what is apparently considered one of the best hockey fights of all time: An ECHL middleweight bout between Ken Tasker and Trevor Senn.
It would be oh so wrong to give the impression that Joe and I were the first to trip over this piece of video. In fact, this neat little fracas has been the subject of multiple conversations on the Internets for some time now.
Here's what Tasker had to say after the fight:
The one thing I remember the most about this fight was that I was thinking to myself (when I was punching him): I am hitting this guy as hard and as fast as I can and he's not dropping. It was like hitting a wooden post and it just wouldn't budge. The final part of the fight I got some combos going and some rhythm and was lucky enough to end up putting him down. It was fantastic for me, because I was the home town guy and my folks were there too.
Back in my hockey playing days, I had one teammate who made sure he scored a goal when his mom was in from out of town for a game. But beating somebody up for your mom is taking it to a whole different level.
“and a left, and a left, and a left!!”
“and a right, and a right, and a right!!”
CLASSIC.
