It's just not a fair trade-off. Lucic is a first line player while Rupp plays fewer than 10 minutes on the 4th line. Lucic probably wouldn't want to fight Rupp not at all because he's scared, but because he doesn't need to.
I hear you and agree with you but imo Rupp hasn't been the same since he got dropped last year,hope i'm wrong cause the rangers without Prust already and a careful Rupp aint the same.

I'm nearly 100% certain that there will be at least one fight early in the Bruins/Rangers game tonight. These two teams have a history of playing tough against one another and the Rangers are 0-2, playing in front of their home crowd, and will undoubtedly be looking for an early spark.

Only 4 games on the slate tonight... but 3 of them have really good potential.

My lock for tonight Orr vs. Engelland

If Orr is on the comeback train, he must fight Engelland again. After dropping Scott, I say he does it tonight. He's confident.

2nd lock, Dorsett vs. Bissonnette

Brad Marchand is a game time decision, didn't skate for today's morning skate or for yesterdays practice.
I would think IF Marchand is out then Lane MacDermid will be in, he's there extra forward rt now.
That would make a good game even better.

Orr vs Engelland. FOTY candidate!

Wow what a toe to toe war!

Solid draw but Engelland did rock Orr with a right.

Great fight between Orr and Engelland! I'll have to watch it again before calling a winner. Both guys landed some bombs.
