Thortons' last two fights have been a coming of age of sorts. From now on, I may have to take this guy more seriously as a brawler. Neil proves that he is still one of the best "punch takers" in the league. Suprising win Thornton, cheap elbow by Neil when a shoulder would've done just as well..

The call by the Bruins announcer is almost accurate for a change.

Win Thorton, clearly. Decent fight.

Posted by The Peach on Apr 2, 2008 at 4:01 PM agree

thornton is more fighter than neil can handle. neil amazes me with his iron head though. guy can take huge shots and never flinch. the way he plays that's a good thing because he gets popped a lot.

nothing landed. Thornton hit only helmet, Neil missed. Edge to Thornton for activity.

Posted by pmarz1 on Apr 4, 2008 at 11:45 PM agree

fortunate for Neil to take the dive at the end, Thorton was landing bombs even with Neil's helmet still on.

Thornton wins. Dirty hit by Neil as usual, but Neil couldn't escape to the penalty box before he got a beat down. At least Neil didn't turtle like the puke he is.

Neil is a Fucl<ing piece of **** cheap shot artist...tough guy my ass

Posted by powerball on Apr 5, 2008 at 9:53 AM agree

good fight but a draw, 2nd or 3rd time i've heard this announcer and i wish someone would shut him up. a real jerk.

Posted by moneybags on Apr 1, 2008 at 3:20 AM agree

thornton pounded the cheap shot artist,why do some players continue to hit in the head like that?? way to go shawn

Posted by BigPapa08 on Apr 3, 2008 at 9:22 AM agree

Slight edge to Thornton, nothing much landed either way.

Posted by bobnknoxville on Apr 2, 2008 at 9:01 AM agree
