Whoa! Downey wouldn't go with Walker in the last game? I watched that game and it was the other way around, and there were opportunities. It's much easier to pound on Franzen and look tough. I'm not a huge Downey fan and I agree it was weak, but come on!

It's a small battle center-ice.
Downey landed one nice shot plus got Walker down to the ice.
He had better control in the end.
EDGE DOwney.

How can anybody give either a win? After the initial hits when they both latched on, not much happened. Downey didn't land a single blow after they grabbed hold of each other. This is a draw.

Downey is one rugged hombre,he hits Walker with a solid left where Walker buckled a bit.That was pretty much it in this one,Downey with the decision.

Downey wins. Downey made a clean hard hit on Salvador and Walker wanted to be a jerk about it.

Nice turtle pose Walker. Keep up the good work Downey.. Go Wings!

I LIKE THE FIRST PUNCH WHEN THEY LOCK UP, DOWNEY JACKS HIM WITH A LEFT, AND WALKER HIDES HIS FACE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE FIGHT, LOSES HIS BALANCE, AND ITS OVER, GOOD JOB DOWNEY,

that was a crappy fight. Downey just wrestled him to the ground. How can people give him a win?

Not a good fight by either one of these two. I'm a Blues fan, but not a big fan of Walker. He serves the role decent enough, but can be a defensive liability. As far as the posts on this sight...Detroit fans are obviously really desperate for a tough guy if they think Downey dominated this fight. It was a draw in a crap fight that was over before it began. And for Wings1 to say typical Blues fan and to look up from the bottom, we are in second place, very far from Detroit I'll agree, but a good turn around from the previous few years. But to sit there and with nothing better to do than to insult Blues fans is actually quite pathetic. Lucky for your guy that DJ King did not get a hold of him. Hopefully Detroit will finally get someone with the sack to stand up to some real heavies, until then, enjoy your Euro style hockey and leave the fight recaps to those of us who have real heavy weights on our team.

A crap fight, period. Downey may have landed that one shot but it wasn't a great shot. They both lost momentum and fell. As for Franzen; he's an instigating little agitator who runs from every fight he can. He deserves his face pounded in every game.

Downey delivered the payback message.

pretty dull fight but the decision goes to Downey in this one. Downey looked like he might have gotten in one good one that kind of buckled Walker. It's kid of sad when Aaron Downey is what you have to look forward to as far as fighters go. The Blues would know because that was their lone fighter a few yrs back

not the best of fights, good check mind

Win Downey because he landed the only punch
Posted by jjjakes on Jan 01, 2008 at 7:52 PM agree disagree
Not much of a fight really. A swing and a miss by Downey and then they get all tangled in their sweaters. Can't wait for the next Det/Stl matchup.
