Bill Guerin vs Evgeny Artyukhin

Since the fight was a non-event ...
I'd like to take a moment to sincerely salute the twisted, but often brilliant, humour of SOME of the reviewers on our site.
The best thing about a silly scrap, is that it usually inspires the best comedic writing... Page 1 had me laughing out loud.
Everybody's getting in playoff mode, I guess.
Good job Boys! - only because I'm assuming that there are very few women.

Called it a draw. But Guerin was clearly holding on for dear life waiting for the refs to break it up.

NO FIGHT...........

horrible. Guerin wanted the fight bad. got the fight. then just hung on for the ride. horrible.

There was probably a point where Guerin thought, "I'm too old for this." That being said he looked like he started the "fight" but went immediately to the defensive mode. Draw: more like two minutes each for delay of game.

Fortunately the refs got in there before it got to second base. Another minute and they would have dimmed the lights and put on a classic slow dance song.

this is the worst fight of the year

they should have got delay of game penalties

2 for roughing. Not a fight. If I have to rate it, it's a 1 at best. Also a draw. Give guerin credit for dropping them with the much bigger man clearly just to get him off the ice for the rest of the game.

arty with the windshield covering his mug,so cant blame billy for fightin tight.thats not even a visor arty wears its a fricken front wind shield off my car.

Well, what can one say? That's about as intimate as it can get while clothed. A 1, at best

It's like some have been saying for awhile now. Sometimes it's better to get a guy's number, wait, and nail him sometime later in the game. Don't go over and hug him, let somebody get him when they can teach him a lesson. What on earth do you prove to a guy by reacting like this? That you have a crush on him?

Guerin holds on for dear life. I don't blame him, I wouldn't want R2 mad at me.

Guerin's got guts taking on the younger smaller guy but still just a big hug.

Artyukhin is a parody of a fighter. Man of his size with face hidden behind the shield in huggy bear action.

As Paper Lace once said... "Billy don't be a hero..." At his age and with that size difference a good old bear hug is your best move... He said the trade made him young again.... But probably not that young.... That's his 2nd with PGH..... probably a career high for a number of past seasons...
