The past week featured a ton of hot action on the ice and a boatload of trades off the ice. The action on trade day may have lacked big names, but a lot of players were moved and that’s always exciting. Unfortunately, that same excitement may not be found in this week’s edition of Hockey Fights of the Week.
After last week’s incredible series of fights, we probably should have expected a slide this week.
5. Mark Fraser (NJ) vs Jared Boll (CBJ) – Feb. 28th
The theatrics of this fight outweigh the fight itself. It takes almost a full 30 seconds before the gloves hit the ice and another 15 before a punch of any kind finds the mark. From there, Boll is swinging wildly with punches which look like they belong in a movie.
4. Mark Borowiecki (OTT) vs Francois Beauchemin (ANA) – Feb. 25th
This was a quick one, but there was enough anger from Borowiecki for a dozen scraps.
3. Clayton Stoner (ANA) vs Curtis McKenzie (DAL) – Mar. 1
There’s really no question who wins this one. Stoner maintains an advantage throughout almost the entire fight and McKenzie doesn’t respond until the fight is pretty much wrapped up.
2. Tom Wilson (WAS) vs Brett Bellemore (CAR) – Feb. 27th
Wilson had a score to settle and he appears to have done so in this one. Wow. Those are some angry “trying to kill the other guy” punches if we’ve ever seen them.
1. Gabriel Landeskog (COL) vs Shea Weber (NSH) – Feb. 24th
This was a great fight on its own, but the tight camera view really makes this one an exciting bout. Besides, who doesn’t love a classic captain vs. captain fight?
