Rick Rypien vs Brad May

Draw out of respect for the effort on both sides...
easily the best intensity I've seen so far this season.

May needs to fight another bruiser like Kim Johnsson to re-establish his credibility as a winner.

Too bad we can't put May in the time machine for this one. May is still pretty good but not what he used to be.

Yeah Baby!!!!!
I love them both!!!!
Clear win Ripper but there is no doubt May's punches had more on them.
Just can't beat the speed of youth but all you hater's on May the last fight odviously don't appreciate the true ART of fighing.
Also Ripper can take a good punch as the replay shows but I think he needs to power up abit because one of these days while he is speed baggin some heavy............He's gunna get caught!!!!!!BIG TIME

Two handed fighters are the cats ass!!
DRAW,May's head flies back when Ripper grabs his jersey. I watched it in frame by frame and Ripper's punches are not making there mark!!!!!

another win for the ripper...may dropping bombs but was getting lit up..especially @ the end....

Good fight. May was throwing bombs at the beginning. Then he got tagged and it was curtains after that. W to Rypien

Damn!! Rypien went Tazmanian Devil on his ass!

May was hanging in there early, but then Rypien comes on strong. Win Rypien.

may looked like he came out to battle at 1st but was then dropped by rypien here

May made a bit of a comeback halfway through but was still overwhelmed by Rypien.

Wasn't sure Rypien was able to withstand some haymakers from tougher guys.. but definately looks like it. WRyp.

wow may got smoked,i like may,i feel bad for all the old Canadians playing for Detroit these last 6 years having to fight these young guns in defense of Detroit's younger highly paid Europeans.

Great fight. You have to love the old warrior taking on this young buzzsaw. A beauty left by May, but when Rypien started throwing with both hands instead of holding on (who does that in hockey? I love that) he landed the right that got him the advantage. That was great to watch.

May is really throwing bombs this year, getting his nose dirty and doing a great job of protecting Wings skill players while providing a spark ... for 38 he is an absolute warrior that commands alot of respect, he sure has mine! I am a little concerned that as the season grinds along he will need someone else to step up and challenge, it was great to see him working with Justin Abdelkader but Johnathon Ericsson can fight and needs to answer the bell once in awhile.

Gave the win to Rypien even though I'n not sure how many of those late punches actually landed. May landed some big ones early on.
