Byers ''jumps the Shark'',
and is immediately challenged
for his cheapness.

Unfortunately, the challenge was issued,
by, the rarely successful,
and ''misleadingly'' named...Winchester.

See you in about five games, Byers you dope. The fight after never got untracked.

draw and a 5 game suspension

Winchester attempts to go Fully Auto

Dirty hit that caused the fight. Winchester responded after the bad hit by Byers. This will be an easy one for Shanahan to call and give a suspension.

Fight didn't really get going though.

Classic example of why fighting should never leave the game and also the need to get rid of the instigator!

This never got going but Byers can plan to sit out a handfull of games for the hit.

Win to Byers
Posted by billgoldberg14 on Jan 15, 2012 at 12:30 PM agree disagree
That will probably be a 100 game suspension for the hit. Not an entertaining fight, but Winchester did well to stay on his feet.

I'd give a **** about Desjardin if he wore a different number. The guy clearly has no brain to worry about.

Winny gets my nod, if for nothing else than standing up for a teammate

Dirty, dirty hit on Desjardins that precipitated the fight. Byers needs a 25-game suspension. This is exactly the type of hit that everyone is trying to prevent, and Byers delivered the elbow to his opponents face in an aggressive and intentional act. He needs to be made an example of. Shanahan, are you listening?

Descent fight, broken up before it could reach its natural conclusion. Winchester gets the W, though it was close.

****ty fight. Byers is a dumbass. Even Jared Boll agrees in the replay. Look at Boll's face at 0:41 in the video
Posted by lbachand on Jan 15, 2012 at 8:39 AM agree disagree
Very cheap deliberate blindside hit to the head. Winchester tried to exact some payback but was not able to get going. Next time stick the moron!!
Posted by grappler11 on Jan 15, 2012 at 12:48 PM agree disagree
Winchester get win for standing up for teammate
Posted by ckochie on Jan 18, 2012 at 7:06 AM agree disagree
The head shot rule is bull****. This year everyone says this hit is dirty. Before that you would have said Byers threw a great hit.
There is no accountability for for the players anymore. If you get caught looking down at your skates its the other guys fault. NOT RIGHT!
