Tie Domi Hits Back At Georges Laraque After His Comment on Ryan Reaves
They once battled it out on ice, as competitors and the fists have evolved into words, and the ice has become the screen in this new warzone.
Two former enforcers, Tie Domi and Georges Laraque, exchanged heated words online after Laraque took shots at current Maple Leafs heavyweight,
Ryan Reaves.
The interaction happened over the weekend, as Laraque had felt that Reaves had an unfair advantage and beat down
Michael Pezzetta of the Montreal Canadiens.
Pezzetta had dealt a questionable hit to David Kampf, which led to him having to answer the bell. Pezzetta was, of course, outclassed by Reaves who by all means, is the new heavyweight in the NHL.
The comment, caused former NHL enforcer Tie Domi to fire back at Georges Laraque.
Domi said Laraques would have done the same thing in Reaves's situation while accusing Laraque of not upholding the enforcer "brotherhood".
"[George] you know you would have done the same thing if someone hit one of your teammates like Pezzetta on Kampf," wrote Domi. "Reavo is playing great & getting ready for the playoffs he didn't want to fight but he had too.
"George I love ya brotherhood always sticks together."
The rivalry between the Canadiens and Maple Leafs will never die!
