Date / Time	Away / Home Team	Away / Home Player
Dec 2, 2006	Colorado Avalanche	Ian Laperriere
1pd 01:56	Vancouver Canucks	Rick Rypien
Rypien nails Brett Clark along the boards with a big hit, prompting Laperriere to skate after Rypien and challenge him. Rypien turns around and the two drop the gloves, quickly grabbing ahold of one another. They start going toe-to-toe with punches right off the bat: Laperriere going with rights and Rypien the left. Rypien switches hands and lands three rights until Laperriere is able to tie him up. Rypien throws a few body shots and throws another left before he takes Laperriere down to the ice. The linesmen come in and break things up. Rypien skates back to the dressing room with a big cut on the bridge of his nose.

Rypien won. He is a hard buzz saw to contain. He switches hands like water...fluid.

Considering what a crapola fighter Laperriere is, this is not an impressive performance by Rypien. Draw.

Posted by hal29 on Nov 5, 2009 at 6:19 PM agree

tough to call i give it a draw. rypien was going through the middle of the fight but lappy caught him with some serious shots as well gashing ryppers nose real good, so its a clear draw. lappy controlled the beginning cameras were late
