2001-2002 Regular Season

Date / Time	Away / Home Team	Away / Home Player
Nov 27, 2001	New York Rangers	Sandy McCarthy
2pd 04:27	Buffalo Sabres	Eric Boulton
Comments: McCarthy challenges Boulton in the neutral zone. Boulton agrees and the square-off begins. Boulton starts off swinging four or fve good rights, maybe three landed. Solid shots. McCarthy returns fire with more rights and Boulton eats them and fires back. McCarthy has his left in Boulton's chest and lets go for a nasty punch. Not only did Boulton not fall, he came back with two sweet rights which both seem to have landed. The first was real hard which pushed McCarthy back. They grapple and McCarthy starts raining the short rights. He had Boulton bent over and was throwing at will, but not much damage. Then the linesmen get in there. Good show.

I had never seen that one before. That was after McCarthy's "prime". You don't get that kind of fight much anymore because they fall down or get each other " locked out". Damn that was great !

Good scrap. Boulton hit alot of helmet at the beginning of the bout. Sandy then lands quite a few and at the end both landed some nice solid punches.

This was a draw but I would like to declare both winners for a good fight.

You have to watch this fight just to listen to the announcer, he is one of the best!!!

Boulton hung tough but Big Mc hit him with God knows how many shots

Sandy my lad, we sure do miss you! He should open up a school for prospective enforcers and show them how its done. Leg humper Stortini could be his first pupil.

McCarthy by close decision because of his strong finish. Boulton ain't no slouch though.

Was that MICHAEL Boulton there? What happened to his ponytail? He should stick to playing his organ! He got smoked by the INJUN!

This is the definition of a donnybrook. The kind that makes you thankful to be watching and not participating. Helluva fight. I call it a draw.

Posted by cambec on Apr 06, 2007 at 1:02 PM agree

good fight.

Great fight. Impossible to pick a winner from that, they just hammered each other and both skated off.

You gotta love that announcer. What a hoot!
