2006-2007 Regular Season

Date / Time	Away / Home Team	Away / Home Player
Apr 3, 2007	Edmonton Oilers	Zack Stortini
3pd 05:55	Minnesota Wild	Derek Boogaard
Right off of the faceoff they drop the gloves and grab ahold of each other at center ice. They grapple in-tight and Stortini throws two short lefts to the side of Boogaard's head. They take each other's helmets off and continue to wrestle around in close quarters. Stortini throws an overhand right and Boogaard responds with a right to the back of a bent over Stortini's head. Boogaard gets in an uppercut followed by two more rights to a still bent over Stortini. Stortini attempts a single-leg takedown on Boogaard, but Boogaard is able to keep his balance. Stortini connects with a right just before he loses his balance and falls to the ice. Boogaard goes down with him and gets in a right just as the linesmen are jumping on top of the two.

All this Stortini hating is going to make things worse. Stortini needs love. He's not looking for fights, he's looking for someone to hug, and maybe a leg to hump if the option comes up. Maybe if we stop hating him, and say sweet nothings instead, he'll have enough love that he won't need to hug on the ice.

Not a fan of boogaard, but he gets the nod here thanks to the always pathetic stortini, I can't beleive I was almost excited about his fight. BTW those 2 who voted for stortini you need to hang up your keyboard as bad as zac needs to hang up the skates.

Scumbag move by stortini trying to trip BOogaard. If he is gonna fight, throw punches. Thats how someone gets hurt, doing **** like that.

Boogaard in a big win. Not even close.

Why does Stortini even bother? A win, but not domination for Boogaard like he could of had with this guy.

Posted by Juha82 on Feb 18, 2010 at 3:55 AM agree

Boogaard with CLEAR WIn, not much landed by him but he had all control over Stortini.

Posted by trpaulson on Apr 4, 2007 at 11:12 PM agree

Booger won this one. Stortini didn't look like he wanted this one real bad.

Posted by Secuel on Apr 4, 2007 at 9:11 PM agree

Booger wins, easily. Same teams play on Thursday night. Think Stortini will want a rematch?

Posted by Heavyweight2 on Nov 30, 2008 at 9:13 PM agree

Stortini can't fight worth of crap.
Boogaard wins Easily

Posted by JDForCommish on Apr 4, 2007 at 8:07 PM agree

Don't know why Sortini even bothers.

Posted by Wildfan01 on Apr 4, 2007 at 12:09 PM agree

Stortini, holds on for dear life and then goes for the tackle, and somehow proceeds to talk trash while skating off the ice. COuld have been a good fight if Stortini would have actually fought.

Posted by icegoat63 on Apr 9, 2007 at 11:05 AM agree

Boogie man all the way. Kinda looked like he was trying to knee Stortini in the nuts there....hahaha cup check!

boogaards just to dam big

Posted by boycew39 on Apr 4, 2007 at 2:21 PM agree

Zach Stortini is possibly the most boring fighter in the NHL because he just tries to hug his opponent to death every time. He only landed one punch here and that was because he tried to pick Derek's leg up first! Credit to Boogey though, he landed some good shots despite being tied up. A clear win for Boogaard.

Posted by Carmie on Apr 4, 2007 at 8:12 PM agree

Zack is counting his lucky stars. Give him credit for even trying, and quit dissing him unless of course you have fought a guy 6'7 270lb's in front of his 18000 fans!!!

Posted by DaBomb1 on Dec 6, 2008 at 6:30 PM agree

Stortini is pathetic.
Total Boogaard
