1pd 20:00	Edmonton Oilers	Georges Laraque
Directly after the faceoff, they drop the gloves, tie up and Laraque throws two quick lefts. Laraque then throws three rights, ripping Boogaard's helmet off in between punches as Boogaard throws a right cross. Laraque loses his balance and goes down to his knees before returning to his feet and fending off four straight rights from Boogaard that all come up short. Laraque turns Boogaard around and lands four rights to the back of his head. Laraque goes down to his knees again as Boogaard throws two rights to the back of Laraque's helmet. They wrestle around for a bit as Boogaard lands a right before the two exchange rabbit punches. They then exchange right hands and Laraque wrestles Boogaard to the ice and lands a right as they are falling. The linesmen seperate the two and Boogaard skates away with a small cut on the side of his face.

Typical Laraque. Goes for the takedown when he senses he's gonna lose. Draw.

It wasn't a great but nice scrap anyway.
Laraque controlled the bout mostly.
Although Boogaard had his own moment but Laraque was stronger/better of the two, landing also more punches.
There wasn't anything open punching.
EDGE Laraque.

Boogaard came a little closer to beating Laraque but he didn't. Only a slight edge to Laraque.

Wow!! What a fight

Amazing brawl... Boogs wanted a KO so he didn't sit on GL both time he fell but a lot of credit could go to both these guys... I think Boogs out fought GL this time around unlike their other two matches... I can't imagine what Boogaard will be like in several years... I hope that the Wild retain him long term.
