John Mitchell vs Jarkko Ruutu

Ruutu gets a nice hit against Schenn, Mitchell responds to the hit and goes downhill for him there. After starting out slowly, Ruutu wins this bout in a convincing way.

Ruutu gets loose and outpunches Mitchell on each exchange.
Great clean hit.

slight win for ruttu, the lowest form of scum this side of matt cooke

What the hell has happened to the NHL? There is practically no hitting, and if you so hit someone there is a fight? The new NHL sucks! I haven't watched a whole Flyers game yet this year.....................BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG! Way to go Bettman, you ruined everything.

Another example of NHL players trying to eliminate body contact from the game. You want to help Schenn? Tell him to keep his head up next time. Boring.

WIN Ruutu.

Slight edge to Ruutu

Ruutu was jumped, but comes back nicely laying a good beating on him while Mitchell was totally gassed.

Ballet dance, just terrible...Ruutu didin't want to fight at all. After he waltzed for 3 minutes he decides to throw...what a joke!! This was NOT a fight!

Good solid fightIf Ruutu gets to fight more, people will be surprised.

Great effort from Ruutu. Clean hit, wins the fight and gets a powerplay for his team.

Mitchell is an ECHL player - at best - he would be an all-star with bantam A teams for sure - but trying to fight Ruutu, not such a great idea - and I love the announcer "team toughness" because Colton Orr can throw wicked fists gives the rest of the leafs "toughness"? Didn't really work out, eh?

good fight....

Good for MItchell, Ruutu can fight for a Euro...

leafs can't win much can they? Funny to see Mitchell submit at the end. Too bad Orr can't play 30 minutes a game.
