2pd 11:16 Toronto Maple Leafs Darcy Tucker
Janssen puts a nice hit on Mats Sundin and Tucker comes over to challenge the rookie. They drop the gloves and grab on. Tucker gets loose first and lands a nice right to the left cheek. Tucker gets free and starts throwing several more rights, the first two with his helmet stuck on his sleeve. Janssen throws a right of his own, and they grab on with Tucker trying to work his way out of his sleeve. Janssen now starts throwing some very good occassional rights while Tucker seems to have tired. Janssen catches Tucker with a few good ones of the half dozen or so he throws. Janssen then waives the linesmen off and throws some more rights, one of which really caught Tucker and made him bury his head. At the end they have one more brief exchange with a few more rights from Janssen and Tucker trying to answer with his right and then with a left. Janssen is cut on the left cheek, either from Tucker's first punch or from the helmet. Other Penalties: Tucker received a head butting major.

Have to give the fight to Janssen but Tucker can take a shot and landed some good ones. Tucker seemed to do better against HW's then against guys that were anywhere near his size. His TKO of Richardson was epic.

Not a bad showing by Tucker against much tougher opponent but still he clearly lost the fight. Great scrap though.

Tucker landed better shots. Including the first one which cut Janssen. No helmet cut here. That first shot was a beauty! Tucker!
