Tyler Kennedy has some mojo to him for his size. Pens needed him back in the lineup. Clean hit from Schenn on Geno. However,you need to let guys know that running your stars is not going to go unnoticed. It is not like Godard went at him.

Slight nod to the bigger Schenn for muscling TK down.

Not a great fight, but I give Kennedy credit for taking on a guy that's much bigger. Schenn gets the win, but it's not a great show.

Good to see both guys ditch the helmets and visors.

cheap move by kennedy, sweet hit by schenn. weak fight also. this all adds up to a draw.
Posted by pens08 on Feb 01, 2009 at 12:14 PM agree disagree
as expected easy win for schenn with kennedy being much smaller. couple of cheap punches when kennedy was down.

how the hell did schenn whoop him? yes he won but its not like he rag dolled kennedy beating him senseless.

Maximum frustration takes over and Kennedy makes a mistake. Pens need control and composure. No damage done here with regard to the fight. If any serious punches landed they were when Kennedy was on his back.
Belak Norris, you are one sick person and should be baned from this site. Get help for yourself fast. No one thinks your cute, they know your sick.

mcb789, that's why the Bruins are in first, but this is supposed be comments on the fight, not fits of jealousy. DRAW. eddubbs and tpr1960 are just jealous of the Pens.

Kennedy will probably be suspended for coming off the bench to initiate a fight. He cheap shotted Schenn out of no where as Schenn was skating to the bench and then the two eventually squared off.

Not much of a fight, but Schenn with the slight decision as he out muscled him and took him down a couple times.

Huge hit by Schenn on Malkin, it's rediculous now, how if any player lays a solid clean hit on one of the team's top players then you automatically get attacked. Hitting is a part of hockey, and if it's a clean and good hard hit, then suck it up and keep on going with the game. I could understand if it was dirty, but it's getting rediculous this year how many times you see this happen in a game.

like how Kennedy tried to protect his team's star. The league doesn;t need hammondeggers taking runs at their star players. In the old NHL...a Penquin goon would have dismantled the Leafs best players. Justice has not been served here yet.

One thing that nobody has mentioned is that Malkin never complained abou tthe hit. He knew it was clean. He just got back up and jumped into the play.

Kennedy was clearly not on the ice and not even in the process of a change until after the whistle blew. Watch the video at the 1:16 mark. You'll see that the whistle has blown and everyone is heading back before Kennedy or anyone else from Pittsburgh comes on. Suspension is definitely coming.

Oh yeah, win Schenn.

Kennedy has got spunk, and when he fights he always just throws fists which makes it fun to watch, but this one was Schenn's. Had they stayed on their skates longer, it could have been much closer and much more interesting.

I'm surprised that none of the other Pens had the guts to go after Schenn, leaving Kennedy to do it. Kennedy was overmatched but at least he stood up for his teammate. I gave Schennt he win here but didn't count the punches he threw while Kennedy was down on the ice.

And I agree...that was a classless comment by Belak Norris.

Not much happened, calling it a draw

does kennedy wipe malkin's ass for him, too?

I give it a draw, mainly because Schenn is a giant compared to Kennedy, but couldn't even control the fight. Kennedy shouldn't have fought him in the first place though, leave the fighting to the boys that know how to.
