Not sure the sportsnet feed paints a clearer picture. They change angles right at the time McLaren goes down.

[Chainsaw Churla]

Hate to break it to the Scott haters/Toronto fans, but Scott dropped McLaren.

McLaren vs Scott - Draw. Good showing by McLaren but it did
look like Big John clipped him at the end and buckled him but McLaren
seemed to control most of the action keeping Scott off balance.

As much as "draw" and "edge" are overly thrown around these fight threads I want to know how in the **** some of you are saying that was a win for McClaren.

[super820]

I have to disagree belive he lost balance but hey either way good showing!!!

[Blues 34]

Draw on second look

[Phila26Flyers]

Draw. To give this one to McLaren, you've got to be either a Scott hater or a Leafs homer. Looks like grimson beat everyone to that.

[GassiusClay]

McLaren looked great, but he got dropped at the end.
Win Scott/

[jjay]

looked like Scott threw a punch then leaned back and kind of pulled Mclaren to a knee. Mclaren did not seem hurt and did a good job.

[pesadillamal]

Pretty sure McLaren threw the last punch so how he was knocked down by a punch is beyond me. The Scott punch hit helmet and maybe had some say in McLaren being off balance but in no way could I see this being a KD or TKO. Scott tried to call the linesmen in and put on his arm waving act to make it look like he hurt McLaren but I am not buying it. Nice showing by McLaren but he came up short too many times for me to give him a win. Draw.

[shedthemitts]

Sorry folks... Scott clipped McLaren at the end. Would have been a big win for him but he ate one. You don't win a fight if you get earholed and fall to your knees.

[leafs_fan77]

Scott's only 2 losses against Leafs? I don't mind that at all.

Kaleta refused Brown, go figure.

I really hate to disappoint a LOT of people but.. I see McLarens whole head being knocked sideways/buckled by a punch and down he goes.. McLarens last punch had nothing behind it.

Fact is though.. for the huge size advantage and for all the punches he ate, Scott didnt impress me at all in this one. He *did* drop McLaren though IMO. It wasnt a slip.

Maybe a new term needs to be made? I wouldnt call this a TKO/KO. He didnt ' knock him down ' he drove McLaren to the ice with that punch like a hammer hitting a nail. doesnt appear to have really phased McLaren BUT.. Scott still put him to the ice..
