Wade Belak vs Brian McGrattan

win for McGrattan
nice to see him active and healthy this year....i am not a fan of the showboating but i get that he was trying to get the fans and his team into it!

Belak will be fine this year if he can pick up his work rate a bit....he is coming off one of this best seasons last year and a great run in the past few years.....this season in his 4 fights he has fought McGrattan x 2 and Boggy so it isn't taking the easy path.

I will say McGrattan is an exciting fighter he can lose big on occasion and love him or hate him he doesn't cheat the fans

McG came out strong. Good to see him chuckin in the NHL again. Win McG.

A lot closer than the votes say...what were they watching?

Thats what i wonder. Wade landed a big shot after Macs first flurry of rights and that clearly stun Mac and he stop throwing them. Mac landed two good rights at the end. I see this fight is pretty even.

This was a close one between two of the current best. McGrattan with the edge.

Controlling win for McGrattan but tarnished by the lack of class. Not exactly my favorite guy.

McGrattan is coming on strong this year after his issues. He takes it to Belak in this fight and not even close.

Nothing too special except MCGrattan with the right hand and jabs.

McGrattan has been much better ever since he got kabonked.

McGrattan owned Belak, enough said...

Good Solid win by Gratts and boy did he land a few beauties!!!!!

NHL enforcer it's so easy a caveman can do it aka McGrattan. God I love this guy all offense no defense. Win Big McGrattan

When Belak was in Toronto Domi was the premiere enforcer but he has really established himself as a top heavy in Nashville. I am happy for Brian McGrattan that he has found a home in Calgary and is making a strong case for #1 heavy this year

good fight between the big dudes, McGratton takes it late

Good to see Gratts win one after a couple of good ones from Belak.
This was a good fight between 2 very good fighters. I really want to see McGrattan get better and I think he will.
To all of you who are doubting Belak, he is still one of the best in the league and has been doing this a long long time.

Win McGratten, but Belak hung in there.
I'd like to take that snapshot of McGratten with his hands in the air and send it as a Christmas card to all the enforcers in the league. For example, "Merry Christmas Mr. Boogaard, I'm ready for my Christmas hug!"
