Retired NHL Enforcer Calls Out Boko Imama for Selfish Play
Ryan Reaves and Boko Imama set the internet on fire on Monday night with one of the worst fights we fans have ever seen. Reaves lit up Arizona Coyotes D Jusso Valimaki when Imama jumped to his teammate's defense.
Or did he?
Retired NHL enforcer John Scott had choice words for Imama after the fact, posing the question: did Imama jump to the defense of his teammate or was he looking for his moment in the spotlight?
The Fight
Scott said of Imama: "I'm looking at it a little bit differently, I'm looking at Imama and I'm like are you really doing this for the team? Is this really retribution for your defenceman getting hit, or are you doing this for yourself? Because if you're really pissed off that your teammate got buried like this, you're firing in there and throwing punches. You're not going in there tapping him, backing up and just putting on the whole show and going to center ice. That's what I don't like."
