Thorburn was obviously not in the best shape for fighting after he was put into the boards. This had to be at the end of the shift as well.

Not a whole lot happened here, each had a death grip on the other's jersey. Had potential too! Going with a draw and a 3.

Draw between Thorburn and the Jovo-cop!

If anything an edge to "Jovo" got to give it to Thorburn handling his own "dirty laundry." Questionable hit by Jovanovski, should have been at least 2 in my opinion. Good fight for two guys at the end of their shift.

Draw. Not much of a fight. Jovanowski has been hitting real dirty lately. I like the old Jovocop better.

Would like to see these two go at the beginning of a shift. Draw.

Dirty hit by Jovo, and totally a draw, but I did love that first punch by Jovo.

Pretty theatrical, that Thorburn's fall...

Just one punch fellas...please?

Could Thorburn of tried to jump any better into the boards! What a lame attempt at trying to get a cheap call!

I don't know how any one can say this was a dirty hit by Jovo, Im not saying he's done it before but I was at the game last night and Thorburn clearly leaped into the boards trying to get a call, looked like an idiot and wanted to fight, that is why nobody "stood up" for him, it was a dive, Im getting sick of homer calls on the play by play and by my own admission the Yotes have one of the worst with Pang. End of story Jovo clear winner in a fight that should have never happened.

Refs have to make those calls! Surely one of them saw it. Unfortunately, it looked like Jovanovski got the narrow win. Where's karma when you need it?

Good show by thorburn not to back down. He was hit hard and came after the tough guy Jovanovski.
Posted by stremb on Feb 20, 2009 at 10:03 PM agree disagree
check out that first punch by eddy (1:08)

Did Thorburn see somthing he liked in the first row, cause he was trying pretty hard to get through the boards at it. Sure Jovo gave him a little shove on the lower back, but it was a chicken sh*t dive on Thorburn's part. Pathetic.
