3pd 12:45 Boston Bruins Joe Thornton
After a hard check, Thornton cross-checks Scatchard to show is displeasure. When Scatchard gets to his feet, the two immediately drop their gloves and have a go. These start throwing bombs with their right hands, each landing several rather wild punches. Scatchard then connects with a nice right to the jaw, snapping Thornton's head back. However, Thornton is unfazed and comes back with a few more rights of his own as his jersey starts coming completely undone. Scatchard then pulls Thornton down on top of him.

Nice to see a young Thornton stand up for himself. Scatchard wins the fight though. Gave it a 6.
