Kovalev and Hollweg cheap shots

In today's Rangers-Canadiens game we had some action. First Kovalev got away with an elbow to Ryan Hollweg's head. So Hollweg loses his cool and later hits Kostitsyn from behind into the boards. Kostitsyn looks hurt at first but gets up slowly and comes back later to play in the game. After the hit was made Josh Georges tries to go at Hollweg, and it looks like Hollweg tries to go after Saku Koivu. Colton Orr and Francis Bouillon got together and traded punches but nothing much landed (Bouillon wears a visor). Watch all of this below.

Jeremy Reich vs Francis Bouillon

Last night we had a spirited bout in the Canadiens-Bruins renewed rivalry game. Remember Bouillon was the Canadiens player that cheapshotted Aaron Ward. Bouillon gets the decision in this one, but Bruins fans bring up the point that Bouillon was wearing his visor. Watch the fight below.

Saturday looked like fight night with 8 fights

This past Saturday again proved once again that Saturdays are fight night in hockey. In the Bruins-Rangers game there were three fights, with Jeremy Reich dropping the gloves twice. First there was Reich vs David Liffiton with maybe Liffiton getting the edge in that one. Later Chuck Kobasew and Ryan Callahan had a wrestling match which was a draw. Reich's second fight in the game was against Ryan Hollweg which was a good one. Both guys looked to land a few, but Reich got the better of Hollweg and I give the edge to Reich in that fight. View a nice picture below of their fight.

In the Hurricanes-Devils game, Craig Adams and Johnny Oduya had a spirited bout right off a center ice faceoff. Both guys exchanged punches and I give the edge to Adams, but I think it could be called a draw. In the Avalanche-Coyotes game, Mark Rycroft and Daniel Carcillo dropped the gloves in a spirited bout where Carcillo looked to land the only punches. Decision to Carcillo, who has played well since being called up by Gretzky and Co. In the Blue Jackets-Kings game, Dustin Brown layed out Klesla with a big hit and Alexander Svitov instigated a fight with him. I would give that one a draw, but Brown did have red marks on his face after the fight. In the Blues-Oilers game, Matt Walker and Jean-Francois Jacques dropped the gloves and had an ok fight where not much looked to land but they exchanged punches. I would give that one a draw, maybe edge to Walker.

In the Maple Leafs-Canadiens game Darcy Tucker and Francis Bouillon had a rematch where Bouillon had the edge early because he had his shield/helmet on. Decision/edge goes to Bouillon. He's really brave fighting with the shield on. A piece of Canadiens fairy trash. He's right there with fairy dive artists Mike Ribeiro and Andrei Markov. If you remember, earlier this season, Bouillon knocked down Tucker with one punch when Tucker wasn't ready and still had his gloves on. You can view that fight and their fight from Saturday night below.

Thursday and Friday fight roundup

I didn't have time to post about Thursday and Friday's fights until now so here we go. Thursday night there were four hockey fights. Panthers' Alexei Semenov and Flyers' Todd Fedoruk had a wrestling match where both guys didn't throw many punches and Semenov somehow fell down to the ice. I give that one a draw. In the Canadiens-Thrashers game, Francis Bouillon put a dirty knee-on-knee hit on Marian Hossa and Keith Tkachuk went after him. They both exchanged some good punches but Tkachuk got in the last punch that sent Bouillon down to the ice. Tkachuk gets the TKO win there. Watch the YouTube video of this fight below.

In the Flames-Predators game, Robyn Regehr and Jordin Tootoo had a battle where both guys threw punches and Regehr went down from losing his balance I think. I would maybe give a slight edge to Tootoo in this one, or a draw. In the Stars-Blues game, Barrett Jackman kept following Eric Lindros around the ice challenging him to fight and finally Lindros came back with a cross-check and then they dropped the gloves and had a wrestling match with not many punches thrown at all. I give this one a draw.

On Friday there were three fights. First there was Hurricanes' Tim Gleason and Capitals' Ben Clymer going at it in a short fight where not many punches were thrown. Clymer bumped into the Hurricanes' goalie which caused this fight. Draw in this one because no one landed anything, Gleason did throw two punches but both missed. In the Wild-Sabres game, Stephane Veilleux and Patrick Kaleta grab a hold of each other and drop the gloves in front of the Sabres bench after a scrum. Veilleux throws lefts and Veilleux throws rights. Veilleux eventually wrestles Kaleta down to the ice. I give this one a draw.

In the Oilers-Ducks game Zack Stortini and George Parros had some talking early in the game but Stortini declined the challenge from Parros. Later, Parros layed out an Oilers player and Stortini came in with gloves off after Parros. Stortini holds Parros in tight and it looks like Parros is trying to get free and apart from Stortini so they can fight but Stortini keeps the hug on a la Donald Brashear. They eventually go down to the ice. This one was a draw as not much happened. I don't know why Stortini drops the gloves and wants to go with Parros and then just hugs him the whole time. Protect your teammates and fight, don't hug. Maybe Stortini has new NHL syndrome?
