Two tough hombres, to say Thornton isn't a tough guy or a good fighter is like saying Juno was a good movie. The Bruins have such an impressive line up this year with skills and toughness. And Savard at the all star game was a great pick to be mic'd up. I'm not a 'Bruins fan' or a 'homer', but you have to admit they are a likeable team this year. Win for Salvador in this one, and I agree, I was a little suprised myself at the outcome. Definitely an agressive fight for that guy.

Not much of an edge to either guy here. Salvador had it early and Thornton had it late, so I can't give either guy a win. Draw

Salvador with the win. Canadiens maggott, get real and admit it, you would love Lucic. Get me a NHL contract and I'll kick Big G Lump of crap's ass. Or die trying. I hate that piece of feces.

edge Salvador, good scrap.

please ignore this goon called mcb789. He knows nothing about hockey and fights and have fun to get you pissed.

about this fight: edge to Salvator for first shot.

Ehh, both had aggression, I'll call draw...but wouldn't remotely argue with a call of "Edge to Salvy"

Salvador gets points on being aggressive. Would have given him the win despite the fact that it seems no one really landed a punch but by pulling Thorton down at the end when there was plenty of fight left leaves it a draw. Hey mcb, the All Star game is the only non-regular season game you'll see in your building this year.......hahahahahaha!!!!!..... What was it, 5-1 loss to Florida last night?????

Looks like this guy (or is it really a guy???) mcb just preying on trying to piss people off so they can unload on him. Dude, get a life, if you like S&M, don't come to hockeyfights and talk nonsense here, just go to dominatrix place and get pissed on...
With this said, edge to Salvador for being the aggressor in this fight.

Salvador had him from the get go. I wish I could say Thornton got a good showing here but I call em like I see them. Salvador was very agressive all the way. That lacks in this age of hockey very badly. More shots landing and the win to Salvador. I'll hope for a re-match.

An alright fight, I'm a Bruins fan and have to give Bryce the win. Both got decent punches in but Bryce wanted it more and got the takedown.

Not much for connections here. Salvador pretty agressive, Thorton last shot. Draw

I'm starting to like Salvador and I think he is kind of underrated as a fighter.
He really caught Thronton off guard when he didn't let Thornton shadow box like he usually does.

Lots of punches not a lot landed.

Salvador is a solid defenseman. It only ups his value in my book that he will stand up for both himself and his teammates when the time is right. And unlike most goons in the league, he actually has hockey-playing skill. Win to #24 in white.
