I know I pick on the Islanders a lot, but how could you not? They have the ugliest fans in the NHL and the Nassau Mausoleum is a joke. Last night, goalie Rick DiPietro tripped Matt Cooke of the Penguins as their game was winding down to a 3-0 Isles loss. That didn't sit well with Penguins goalie Brent Johnson, and before you knew it was goalie fight time.
DP did his best impression of Glass Joe from Mike Tyson's Punch-Out and fell to the ice after one punch like the little girl he is. Don't worry, Long Island kids! He's only under contract for 10 more years. Good luck with that.
UPDATE: DP is out 4-6 weeks with facial fractures and knee soreness. Heart of a champion!
