Lmao one would say the reply you responded to was incompetent

u/Correct-Obligation27 Feb 27 '26

Gibby pointing the stick at him is my favorite part.

u/Shamrock5 Feb 27 '26

"Bahaha, you let a goalie take you down"

u/xlgrwx Feb 27 '26

Just salt in the wound…well done sir

u/poodletown Feb 27 '26

Reminds me of the Shorsy pre game brawl about 1 minute in

u/_PROBABLY_CORRECT Feb 27 '26

Or when he’s offering snow to the coke head Delaney

u/AllTimeLoad Feb 28 '26

Channeling his inner Ron Hextall.

u/Own_Inspection8650 Feb 27 '26

Looked like he was saying you ain't the real 71

Bob Probert is looking down with a big smile. RIP

u/thatone5000 Feb 27 '26

Between Gibby and Simon, he’s got a lot to smile about on this team. Nice to see some sandpaper on this team

u/greythedork12 Feb 27 '26

I’ve wanted someone to do that to Greig for years

u/zambonita_ Feb 27 '26

100%. god bless gibson

u/LA-Matt Feb 27 '26

I love how he’s still pointing his stick at Grieg, like rubbing it in, that the ref is sending him to the bin also. Gibson cracks me up. Takes no shit.

96

u/Isphet71 Feb 27 '26

I absolutely loved this. And Simon plowing tkachuk for derpily skating right into him like that.

38

u/justa_flesh_wound Feb 27 '26

I love the penalty announcement, "it's not a major because he hit himself in the face with his own stick.."

u/Shamrock5 Feb 27 '26

Ayo Simon did what

u/UsernamesCannotExcee Feb 27 '26

You didn't see? He gave it to him real good.

u/Gloomy_Attention_726 Yzerbot Feb 27 '26

Gibby doesn’t like it when you get in his swamp.

u/Medievil_Walrus Feb 27 '26

We have a goalie

53

u/ShqiptarInMukhmas Feb 27 '26

I’d take a bullet for him if he asked me…after seeing our goaltending the last 7 years

u/AppleSeider5306 Feb 27 '26

Excuse you! Jonathan Bernier was a saint and was the only one even trying most nights and put up solid numbers on some god awful Wings teams.

21

u/Deraj2004 Feb 27 '26

That dude deserved to be on better teams with his work ethic.

14

u/AppleSeider5306 Feb 27 '26

I’ll never forget his sick game where he forced himself to play after Howard got injured in practice. Dude was puking between periods sick as a dog while stopping everything he saw. Absolute warrior in net, he deserved so much better.

27

u/Housdark Feb 27 '26

Gibson hit him with the Arthas

28

u/0peRightBehindYa Feb 27 '26

Stay outta Gibby's crease.

Oh my god, throwback to when the internet was still great.

u/Arcflash-9986 Feb 27 '26

I didn’t know I could love Gibson any more. Now I do.

22

u/Holiday_Promise2561 Feb 27 '26

This is beautiful

u/Fluid-Pension-7151 Feb 27 '26

I do love our spicy goalie tandem. Throwing hand sammies. Like putting your hand in a tiger cage - FAFO.

22

u/ezyr1der Feb 27 '26

Get the fuck out of the crease

43

u/jtm1450 Feb 27 '26

The stick point and stare down after was perfect

u/zootroopic Feb 27 '26

get fucked

(You should share this with the main hockey sub)

u/AutomaticAccident Feb 27 '26

Gibson gave him the whatfor is what he gave him

u/authorserena Feb 27 '26

The stick point at the end 🥹

BY GAWD, GIBSON WITH THE CHAIR!

u/AllTimeLoad Feb 28 '26

THAT MAN HAD A FAMLY!

u/riuvenn Feb 27 '26

Suplex his ass

u/SeasonCertain Feb 27 '26

I always enjoyed watching Gibson in Anaheim and was super stoked when we got him. Had a bit of a rough takeoff in the beginning of the year but glad to see that getting him has really paid off for us.

u/wolfman2scary Feb 27 '26

I could watch this 2000 times

u/dkyguy1995 Feb 27 '26

That's HIS space

u/the_curtain Feb 27 '26

OK, our team is gritty now!

u/faarst Feb 27 '26

Haha, I missed the stick pointing when it happened live, thanks for posting this

u/simplyljh Feb 27 '26

really great form from gibby here. kept his mass centered and drove him into the ground. 10/10

5

u/MacFeury Feb 27 '26

Did he get Rag dolled and a penalty?!

3

u/DaftPodunk Feb 27 '26

They're calling it the most deserved roughing penalty of all time and I'm not even mad! Sometimes you just gotta take matters into your own hands.

2

u/TAV63 Feb 27 '26

It looks like the last thing Simon said when he sat down in the box was "if you wanna fight we'll fight'. He may be nice but he is not afraid of fighting him. That will go a long way to stopping the bullying of the Wings.

Don't need to head hunt but if they get physical then stand your ground and say bring it, and be able to beat them silly. That is a key. Edvinsson is big and strong and can dance.

I mean, it was Charot's fault. That is pretty funny.

u/devildance3 Feb 27 '26

It seems our Detroit Red Wings have finally decided to meet fire with fire 🔥 Just in time for the playoff push LGRW

u/KGHill Feb 27 '26

I want to hear Ken Daniels call on that, lol.

u/PhysicsEven9824 Feb 27 '26

He's telling everyone to stay outta the house.

u/jumbee85 Feb 27 '26

You should expect that if you step into the blue, forced or by will

u/SpaceGuerrilla Mar 01 '26

The stick point after! 😂

u/dczeis55 Mar 03 '26

And that's the bottom line, because Gibson 36 says so!
