First, I agree about Jack Edwards. Bring back Dale Arnold, and has anybody told Edwards about teeth whitening. The fight was dominated by Lucic, Ruutu went looking and didn't like what he found. bufordjustice has no clue what he is talking about. Lucic did not initiate but did dominate.

Lucic picked Ruutu apart in this one. I dont understand how anyone is giving Lucic a hard time for fighting Ruutu, because Ruutu started the whole thing. entertaining fight. great job by Milan.

What a dominate bout by Milan Lucic. Hope Ruutu learned not to mess with Lucic.

Ruutu challenged Lucic to a point where Lucic had no choice but to fight. Lucic pounded Ruutu with body shots. I say if Lucic didnt have a broken nose right now he would have been more willing to swing instead he showed how strong he was. BGL might have been a good fight but not when his nose is all messed up. give him like 6weeks to heal then we'll see. props to Lucic for manning up with a broken nose. I don't see how u can say Ruutu won based off one punch that wouldnt have done anything to Lucic if he didnt have a broken nose. Win Lucic, that is all.

Don't have much respect for Lucic. He starts a fight with a much smaller Ruutu, then parades off the ice like he's Rocky. Meanwhile earlier in the game Laraque tried to go with him and Lucic wanted nothing to do with him whatsoever.

ruutu is the one that ran Lucic, and started the fight, get a clue, also,Lucic, ahs a broken nose, in a totally lopsided game, there is no reason for him to want to fight, anybody, this was started by Ruutu all the way, must be a Pens fan...

i dont know what more you lucic bashers want from the kid. 19 years old and 12 fights in the nhl. and hes won about 9 of them decisively. some of u cry when he wouldnt go at it with big georges. he has a 2ce broken nose and is STILL fighting guys. maybe you pens fans should notice how george backs down from the almighty Z anytime chara wants to throw down. lucic is a beast and will continue to pummel wannabe tough guys.......just like jarkko ruutu.

lucic with the win AGAIN..................broken nose and all

Good scrap. I love to see uppercuts and body shots mixed in there, even if they miss. A couple solid chin shots landed by Lucic. Thought Ruutu was going to hammertime the way that he was instigating, but he didn't throw, and didn't have an answer for anything.

There are obviously some people on here with major vision problems. You should have link to a referral network for eye doctors. Rutuu lands a couple at best. Lucic had his right tied up the whole fight and landed a few bombs. How you can even give Rutuu a draw much less a win is amazing. Must be Fins giving him the win because he even fights!

lets not forgot Ruutu challenged Lucic and Lucic was tired. Laraque never challenged Lucic and if Laraque is the fighter he is he should have challenged Chara but no he is a *****. Lucic wins the fight hands down Ruutu will never fight Lucic again guaranteed.

It is a draw. Lots of punches thrown but zero damage done to either side.

Ruutu went looking for it...how can you Lucic haters say any different. Regardless if BGL wanted him earlier, Lucic had no choice but beat Ruutu up.
