He's alright, he is a hockey player.

He looks like blond teddy bear
Shouldn't the refs be punished if they interfere in the game by taking a man down and giving one man advantage to the other team? It's kinda like unfair

Hagman - hope they get easier for you, that looked exhausting.

However I hope you get smoked tonight when you step into HSBC Arena.

1st a forearm shiver in the chops, then the puck smacks him in the face, then he scores a goal like this?
Looks like events taking place just before the goal just pissed him off enought to not be denied.
He's no "Pansy" Wow!

Dunno...pretty cool but doesn't seem like a big deal. Guys get hit and slashed all the time while wheeling the puck in for a goal.
There was also a good amount of time from the silly stuff to him scoring the goal.
Goal of the year IF he got checked by the ref, kneed in the head, etc, and then immediately scored.

He's got a future in Capital One commercials.

Thanks for using my clip. IMHO its definitely hardest working goal of the year, possibly goal of the year, and definitely "the most played down goal of the year because a Leaf scored it and the Leafs have to suck at everything omg 1967" award winner.

I think that the celebration afterwards should factor into the deciding of whether it is the goal of the season...No style points for acting like you pull that off every other game...

And with this goal, Steve Simmons and the Toronto Sun have begun to re-distribute maps for the 2009 Toronto Maple Leafs Stanley Cup parade...

If every player on Toronto played with that kind of heart, they might make a run at Florida for the eight seed.

It was a pretty finish. Hard work??? Im not that sure getting knocked around is considered hard work, taking a puck in the face probably knocked the cob webs out from the knee to the head but he managed to finish so A- from me.

Hagman is actually Shaq. You don't wanna make him angry, cuz when he's angry he does things like score goals (win championships).

Hey "Hamilton Tigers", the Leafs may not be winning a cup anytime soon but at least we don't live in Hamilton, the armpit of Ontario.

@Leo Mastoras:
I don't live in Hamilton either - it is the armpit or Ontario (if you don't count Sudbury and pockets of Etobicoke). I'm one of those guys who came from a bad neighbourhood, made good, and wants to give back to his "home" community whenever I can without actually going there.
Anyone who has been to Hamilton recently is either looking for drugs and hos on Barton Street, or just have to cut through it on the QEW or 403.
If the Tigers ever come back to Hamilton, I'll go to a few games at Copps, but I hope they build a new arena in Stoney Creek or Ancaster...

Nah, the armpit of Ontario is probably Sarnia. Hamilton's definitely top three though.

so does that make windsor the dirty groin of ontario?

can detroit qualify as that armpit? just saying.. i mean it is detroit AND it is located kind of down the "arm" of canada. idk its still early for me.
@beer i have to respectfully disagree. i think his nonchalant "ehhh it was nothing" reaction is supreme cockiness! great shift anyway you slice it. helm is getting the start tonight over leino. you saw what babs said right? love it!
for the rest of you from AK.. "He's been so good, a goal and an assist, a plus-2,so I scratched him today,'' coach Mike Babcock said. "That didn't really make any sense, but he'll be back in the next game (Saturday vs. Edmonton).
"He's been really good, (has) good puck skills, good determination on the puck. As he gets used to the league, he'll get quicker, but he's an NHL player, he's going to be a point-producer.''
bottomline when the playoffs start and people get hurt who has the deepest minors? darren helm: Helm, 22, has collected 31 points (11-20—31) in 37 games with Grand Rapids this season. The recall marks Helm’s third stint with the Wings this year as he appeared in two games in October (vs. the NY Rangers and Vancouver) and one game in November (Montreal). The St. Andrews, Manitoba native also appeared in seven regular season games (0-0—0) and 18 postseason games (2-2—4) with Detroit in 2007-08. ville leino youve tasted and he will be ready to replace any injured wings as will abdelkader! i really cant wait for the nhl to meet jonathon ericsson! he hurt his wrist but he'll be up soon! the future looks bright! its great to be a wings fan!!
WINGS TIL DEATH!! HEY HEY HOCKEYTOWN ACROSS THE USA!!

what a mish..

It at least earned the Holy Mackinaw, anyway.

OK, settle down Leaf Nation. Hagman IS the best the Leafs have to offer(redundant) and that WAS a beautiful goal! Hope the Capitals' scouts were at that game....Hagman'd look great alongside Fedorov, or Backstrom, or Vechie in the Finals in June '09. Now go on and looooooooose the rest of the games this season Leafs...please!!! You need this Jonathan Tavares kid.... NEED HIM to rebuild your "storied franchise" around. He and Schenn are a Datsyuk/Lidstrom, Crosby/Gonchar, or Ovechkin/Green, of the future.

Tough night at the office for Hagman.

That's Haggy
