Vintage video of Derek Boogaard trying to destroy opponent resurfaces.
Hockey in society

Derek Boogard only played a part in 6 NHL seasons in his career, but he's still well remembered by fans in Minnesota and New York. The gritty winger was better known for his hard checks and intense fight than his scoring skills, and this video is exactly true to character. 


BOOM! This apparently old video is hilarious for two reasons. One, the guy Boogard attempted to destroy just skillfully got out of the way like it was all planned before. Second, the obvious thing is how the glass simply exploded out of the brute force of the hit. 

Boogard was a beast at 6'7'' and 258lbs. When he skated your way, you moved! He tragically passed away 6 years ago and is dearly missed for his colorful character.
