Bruins May Be Dealing With Laraque Tonight

from Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe,
The Bruins will be in Montreal tonight to face Les Glorieux, and it’s a good bet big Georges Laraque, all 6 feet 3 inches and 253 pounds of him, will fill the role of Maitre’d pugilist at Bell Centre.
“Yes, come right in,” he might say to Messrs. Milan Lucic and Shawn Thornton. “How nice to see you gentlemen from Boston again. Might I find you a . . . seat?”When Laraque and the Canadiens were in the Hub Nov. 13, he was equally as accommodating and gracious in the minutes after Lucic smacked elite Habs winger Alexei Kovalev with a hit near the Montreal bench that Laraque found, shall we say, objectionable.
Soon thereafter, Laraque asked Lucic to fight. Lucic wasn’t interested.

Considering that he was the one that had to answer to reporters after the game, who embarrassed who here?
You’re a big guy, Georges. If he doesn’t want to fight after a legal body check, how about giving him a big hit of your own (legal, of course)? Who knows, he might want to go after that and you’ll get your wish.
