Geez, whatever....I hate Downey with every fiber of my existance.

Give it to Downey, I think he was more frustrated and diligent and I´m sure we missed the begining where Downey threw a hard one. God bless Ice Hockey

The Wings are known for their age, not fighting. Nice to see a guy in the Red drop 'em.
Downey, the more experienced fighter, wins

I am very concerned about Downey and Drake getting severely injured. They are valiant warriors but are too small. The Red Wing Organization has no decency since Probert and Kocur were their to protect their teammates. Buy the way Downey edged out his bigger foe.

I was at the game. Downey did get one good shot in before the camera panned over, the rest of the shots seemed to connect only to the shoulder pad. McLaren had a cut on his forehead (probably from that first pucnch). Downey's jersey was ripped in half when he went to the box. Draw/Maybe edge Downey for the first hit.

This was a good fight. but you really need to include the check McLaren landed on Drake to understand what was happening.
If you're counting the winner as the guy who lands on top, sure, Downy was the winner. But both guys landed good shots. Downy ends up whipping McLaren around and that's when McLaren goes down. Not by a punch.

Glad to see Red Wings player win the fight.Did you seen Downey´s jersey after the fight?Those jerseys are horrible like piece of paper

I don't understand why so many voted for Downey. About all he did was punch McLaren's shoulder pads.

Downey does his job standing up for Drake, and earns the win against the bigger, heavier McLaren. Credit to Kyle for answering the challenge.

I don't give points for punches that land on the pads, or falling down on top of the other guy. Solid Draw and a decent fight.

Downey drilled McLaren before the cameras got there and if you listened to the video without the homer San Jose announcers it doesn't seem so close. Definite Downey win.

Just what Wing need, set tone for rest of the 3rd. Fight and game big wins
for Wing

DOWNEY wins TKO

I agree McLaren got in a couple good shots and Downey did answer but I'm not sure Downey had the upper hand. Towards the end there when McLaren was just trying to pull the jersey over to start pounding (and that obvioulsy didn't work) I think Downey missed a few shots that most people would believe he nailed. Was glad to see the game come to some blows. Nice rivalry.
