BAckes backed himself up fierce, wins.
pachanga1971, your an idiot. The Blackhawks really need to do something about their lack of toughness. Win Backes.
pachanga1971 You don't know what the fu^k you're talking about. Toews is the absolute last person on the Hawks, let alone in the NHL who wants to fight or even thinks of starting fights on a regular basis. Given that this is his SECOND fight as a pro, and that both were faught in hard battled teams to show he and his mates wouldn't back down to physical intimidation, I seriously question your sanity, and I.Q. The Hawks are one of the top three teams in the NHL, and will be a factor for the next decade. They matched St. Poois' physical play, killed off a monster 7:00 PP, and then systematically dismantled a team full of assholes playing for themselves and not their felow teammates. Toews taunting people? You must be out of your fuc*king mind, bitch.
get rid of the visors you two fruitcakes.
I guess we'll call this a fight. Easy on these 2 for not taking the visors off....they had no clue what they were doing or what they were supposed to do. Toews punches looked like they were in slow mo. If I have to call one of these 2 a "winner" in this fight...it goes to Backes. But "winner" in this case is a relative term. They need to stick to the goal scoring.
another celler dwelling gutless wonder.da blues have alot of them.lets see that puss try that with byfuglien,or seebs,he would get his ass handed to him.maybe the blus should try to score some more goals,that looks better for you when the playoffs role around. do hope keith tkchuck is alright,that was a rough way to get your name on the scorers sheet.
I gave this a draw brecause Backes should of trounced a small 20somithing kid with one NHL fight. Yet Toews hung on and didnt get leveled, started a toe to toe fight and didnt shadow box. Heh he could beat the shit out of the "now 'fighting'" Crosby! Toews could sure as hell fight better, Good job by the Haws to let their Captain stay in it!
One word: visors. Drop 'em or don't fight.
Towes at least gave the college try....
like to see Toews fight good heart but give the W to the other guy
Clear win for Backes. Not exactly heavy hands, but a lot of action and he landed a bunch of shots.
Toews gets beat up like a drunken buffalo chump at moonlight bowling!!!
good for toews standing up. backes the clear winner. the game definitely has changed. 5-10 years ago backes would have left the game on a stretcher or at least answer to probert, regardless of whether toews started it or not.
Who in the hell voted for Toews? Way to keep the voting process creditable. Win Backes, but nice to see Toews stand up for himself.
For Toews asking Backes to go, he looked like a fish out of water. BACKES with the win
Backes looked like a kid in a candy store when Toews agreed.
toews got his ass kicked,that's what happens when you go to prep schools in the USA because you cant handle the WHL in Canada..
In a battle of the visors I'll give Backes the "W" in this fight. Backes did more in the fight than Toews. I give Toews props for dropping the gloves though. This is what his second or third fight?
I would agree with sarmedgar although I would have expressed myself in a more civil manner. Towes is not a fighter, neither is Backes but he does have more experience. The Blues are a team in disarray clearly dominated by the Hawks
Clear Win for Backes, Toenails gets owned!!!!!
fight?
backes gets the win in this fight.
backes
Toews in a fight??? WTF!?!?
Props for Toews for showing up. but win for Backes
NO VISORS PLEASE! Extra 2
The hawks are in need for another tough guy or enforcer so crap teams like the blues who only care about injuring the other teams stars at least hesitate. Toews should rarely have to do this because of obviously its the worst part of his game.
gotta give credit for toews for holding his own
BACK-ASS looked like a real man against a NON-FIGHTER ! Should have made the BLEWS fans so proud !
The american gets revenge for losing the gold to canada.
Toews might rethink that decision if he had it to do over.
If Toews is gonna fight someone, make he doesn't fight a person with a visor on. =P
Backes took it to Toews.. A for effort though on Toews part.
WTF was Toews thinking here. Backes knows what he's doing with the gloves off. Easy win for 'em.
USA! USA! USA!!!!
im surprised toews fought. i give him a lot of credit though cuz he was clearly outmanned there. thats a time where a guy like eager or byufglien would step in. good win for backes
Wow, Backes kicked Toews' butt there ..... nice to see the scorer's throw them every now and then. And a scorer not having to defend himself against a cheap shot artist; ala Kaleta.
The Hawks captain is the only person on the team who wants to fight fair and square, and he takes a heavy-handed whoopin. Backes dominates.
wow backes just gave toews a wooping, that was embarrasing for toews. he looked like a little girl
Toews got pounded pretty good here-Looked like he was lost a bit.
Never though these two guys would go. Pretty good fight but Toews got beat up pretty good.
not bad for two guys who don't fight. toews got beat but at least he did'nt back down.
Backes won the fight, but Johnnytoews wins where it counts: the scoreboard.
Backes Stunned Toews a couple times. Clear Cut winner.
Nice to see Backs showing the fire I've been waiting a long time to see. Former Mankato boy throwing down!!! Clear win for him.
nice fight by 2 non fighters. W for Backes
Love to see that little b*tch Toews get his ASS kicked!
A real dispute, not a dancing match or a make-believe fight
Domination by Backes, Toews needs to stick to playing the game
win backes but toews is a scoring star and doest fight.kudos to toews
Domination by Backes
USA v. Canada, W for USA
What was Toews thinking going after Backes? Welcome to the big league son. Stick to scoring and leave the fighting to the men.
Wow, Backes could have really done some damage to Toews if he wanted to.
Given the both fighters had visors, that argument can be dropped...finally. Glad to see a franchise player like Toews fighting his own fight without stepping down or letting a teammate handle things. Although he stepped up, Backes beat him down. Domination Win = Backes
Dunno why anyone would vote Toews the winner in this one. At this game, very excited to see Backes get in a scrap. Backes, hands down, winner.
that will probably toews last fight for a while
Vzhledem k rivalite techto dvou tymu jde o velice slusny boj. Oba hraci jsou v soucasnosti kapitani techto dvou klubu a prave o to je to jeste zajimavejsi. Toews si nevedl zle ale Backes dominoval vzhledem ke sve postave.
Good donnybrook by two non-fighters
Toews gets taken back to school.
toews got hit punch after punch im surprised he lasted as long as he did
Backes dominates Toews
I'm glad to see Toews get his ass kicked...Everytime I see Toews play he always wants to fight...Great job Backes!
backes pummeled toews.
I think it's hilarious that Toews is acutally getting 6% of the winning vote! Total domination by Backes!
Who the fuck fights Toews? Backes is a huge tool and I'm glad to see Nash beat him up. The only time an american can win is fight a much smaller player who never fights. (But Nash taught Backes a nice lesson).
You Blues fans are idiots...Pachanga - you say everytime you see Toews play he wants to fight??? Are you sure you're watching the right guy??? You guys call him a bitch?? He's nearly the classiest guy in the league, being compared to Yzerman and Sakic...enjoy last place...you'll be there for years to come...morans!!
Toews wins just for showing up. Backes shoved toews around and lands 0 hits. Toews goes down and gets back up for more. Like I said Toews win just for standing up to the Blues garbage pail kids. Should have been Backes vs Toews and Kane, Kane got a cheap ass headshot early-on therefor him and Toews should have been able to tagteam Backes bitch ass. Backes got knocked around later on by some CLEAN hits. The blues should bring a note book and pen next time.
Toews showed up and stood his own. College boy done good.
way to step up toews....as if kane or some other american top scorer would do that....lmao..good ol winnipeg boy
for only his second fight toews did alright...def. not a fighter tho...surpized me when it started..
Once again Backes takes on a non-fighter. He still didn't dominate.
toews ? what the hell was he thinking, he sure can take a punch to the visor though
haha Visor Fight! Meh, obvious win for Backes but who cares? Hawks are one of the best teams in the league while the Blues are bottom-dwellers who are out to hurt as many people as possible - they took out at least three Predators the other night including Martin Erat.
Way to go Backes! Picking a fight with Jonathan Toews, definitely known as a fighter. Good job there.
Toews is no Sidney Crosby. Everything you would expect from a Toews fight, but give him some credit for at least dropping them. Easy win for Backes
Toews sucks at hockey fighting. Cheap shot by Backes to start the whole thing. Wish Backes had showed that kind of gumption against Ryan Kesler of the Capukes.
young capt toews drops em...nice....he took one though...win backes
I give Toews credit for fighting Backes, but he was definitely out of his element. Toews was throwing pillows the whole fight.
I can go and say that Toews proved why he was the captian for being willing to stick up for himself and not be pushed around, blah, blah, blah. I love Toews, but let's face it, much like the Bulgarians vs. the Slovaks in women's hockey, Toews gets destroyed.
Don't Toews me bro!
Toews has many skills but fighting is obviously not one of them. A beat down by Backes
Wow!!!! So cool........Remember back in the day teamates would not have let Backes continue to win against their top player........Hell I wanted to jump in!!!!!! HA HA HA Great Job Both Guys stepped up and one is just way better at it then the other!!!!
Toews should stick to scoring goals, because he got owned here.
the tower inferno with the win in this battle. ---- That how you saw it MCB??
Backes. Clearly. "Once again Backes takes on a non-fighter. He still didn't dominate." Comments like this make me wonder if people are really this clueless
Definite win by Backes, but credit to both guys for stepping out of their element and dropping the gloves. Would be nice to see the helmets come off before the fists start flying next time though.
Dear Jonathan Toews, It's probably not a good idea for you to ever fight anyone. You're a great player, do what you do. Those were the slowest punches I've seen in a hockey fight.
Easy pick - W for Backes.
Love when fights are actually produced from the emotion of the game. I rated the fight higher, because they weren't typical combatants.
Backes finally finds someone he can beat. How ''courageous'' of him...
Toews got his a** kicked just another Hawks Bit*h
