Brandon Bollig vs Ryan Reaves

I've been an outspoken fan of Reaves' progression this year,
but that was definitely... not ... his finest moment.

Props to Bollig for fighting smart,
and as a result..., forcing me to take a second look.

Bolig fine tuned Reaves but that was one of the few game highlights for the bipolar Blackhawks.

Win Bolig. I keep reading about Reaves on this board as the second coming of Bob Probert. Very overrated from what I have seen so far.

That was a great technical fight. Bollig fought a smart fight and his short rights take the win.

Now I know why the Hawks can afford to let Scott go...
Anyone who can handle Reaves like that has got to be pretty good.
One of those upper-cuts definitely rattled Reaves and why he asked for the linesmen.
Gotta love the respect at the end...nice.

As the fight began, with Reaves as a combatant, the anticipation of gta1956 spawned his first "wood" in weeks... Too bad Bollig's win quickly put him in flacid mode once again... May I suggest the "BLUE" pill next time... OriginalSex1957, an O.G. from the Windy City, couldn't take his hand off himself. Good for you!!!

I give this one to Bollig...What a fun scrap. I do have to say that Reaves missed one right that if it landed would have hurt all of us.
I'm one of those saps who likes the mutual respect and the "post-fight handshake".
I don't think Reaves is overrated- I think he's shown flashes of his raw talent (and is becoming more consistent), and is definitely one of the better young fighter prospects in the league.

Reaves overrated or not has a big punch and is pretty strong. Bollig was about to muscle him and avoid a big punch. He was also able to get into position to land several nice punches. If Bollig can do this all the time..............

win BB Gun...good bout

Wow a pretty solid scrap here between two big guys. Bollig got the better of Reaves in my opinion which was a little surprising as earlier this year some thought Reaves had a shot at the heavy weight belt. He had enough of the Bollig beat down and thats why he stopped. Great job by BB gun, but he's still no replacement of Big John Stud. Reaves must of had a lot of weight off his shoulders when he found out John Scott was traded, he didn't realize he would have to deal with Bollig!

Good tilt, sure we will see these two duke it out in years to come, happy days.

oh yeah, Bollig win, impressive.

Great job by Bollig. Win Bollig

Always shocked to see some one who can go toe to toe with Reeves. Gotta give it to Bollig

surprised to see reaves not win one. didn't lose the fight, he just didn't dominate it like he usually does. i'm a bruins fan and I still think reaves is one of the best in nhl from what i've seen

great tilt draw
