Oct 12, 2002	3pd 01:39	@ PIT	NYR	Krzysztof Oliwa
Comments: Oliwa just misses a big check on Pushor. McKenna comes over they drop em. Oliwa misses a right, McKenna is trying to get his forearm pad free and grazes Oliwas cheek with a right. Oliwa comes up short with a right, McKenna the same. Oliwa misses badly with 3 rights while McKenna is hunched over, still trying to get free from his arm/elbow pad, then throws a right that hits Oliwa's shoulder. Oliwa hits McKenna in the back of the head with a right. Some wrestling and then Oliwa throws a right over an already falling McKenna and goes flying over McKenna's back. Oliwa had a decent gash on his left cheek either from the McKenna right or more likely his elbow pad.

Oct 26, 2002	3pd 19:57	@ PIT	BUF	Eric Boulton
Comments: Boulton wants to go with McKenna as the clock ticks down. They drop with McKenna skating towards a backtracking Boulton. McKenna clocks Boulton with a right to the jaw, stunning Boulton, who ducks and puts both hands over his head and falls to ice/knees. McKenna then throws 5 more to the top of the head to the defenceless, turtling Boulton.

Dec 17, 2002	1pd 03:15	PIT	@ PHO	Andrei Nazarov
Comments: They drop em after a faceoff and the camera is late getting there. Naz throws 3 or 4 lefts as they come together. Punches don't appear to land as McKenna throws a right. They're face to face, hugging. Naz tries 2 lefts that come up short, then lands a left to McKenna's neck, popping his lid off. Naz throws 3 more lefts, none landing. McKenna tries a left that is short, then landed a softie to Naz's ear. McKenna then tries 2 uppercuts, none hitting. Naz sticks his head in McKenna's chest and takes him down hard.

Jan 04, 2003	1pd 11:49	@ PIT	NYI	Eric Cairns
Comments: Some talking and these two drop the gloves and grab on. McKenna throws two rights. First one hits shoulder, the second hits nothing. Cairns, holding on to McKenna's jersey with his left hand, gives him some quick left-handed jabs. They go to start swinging again and McKenna falls.

Jan 09, 2003	1pd 15:42	@ PIT	TOR	Wade Belak
Comments: Starts with Belak hitting McKenna against the glass, Mckenna responds with a butt end and Belak throws down first. McKenna follows and gets the jump on him, landing two good shots in a flurry of about four. Belak is getting handled and he looks like he is going down when he regains his composure and gets to arms length with him. Belak then throws a short flurry, landing one. McKenna loses his balance, but jumps back up and throws another quick bundle, one or two grazing this time. Then Belak twists McKenna and lands two shots on his way down. Other Penalties: Belak received a charging.

Feb 06, 2003	3pd 10:34	@ PIT	FLA	Brad Ference
Comments: Mckenna, who was trying to fight all night, goes nuts on Ference and starts to hammer him. Worrell jumps on Mckenna's back to get the 3rd mand in. Everyone piles up. Pushor grabs Beaudoin. They have a hold of each other and Pushor gets his arm free and starts throwing a few. A couple catch helmet or are grazers, but then he lands a hard left hook square. Beaudoin stays up for a second after this, but then bails, falling to the ice. Seeing that no ref can break it up he gets back up. Pushor may have thrown a couple more which is when Luongo comes in. Beaudoin throws his only punch of the fight with Luongo in there that lands to Pushor. This is when Charon comes down and the fight pretty much ends. Other Penalties: Ference received a roughing, Shean Donovan received a roughing; Peter Worrel a roughing and game misconduct; Roberto Luongo and Sebastien Caron received leaving the crease minors; McKenna an instigator, misconduct and game misconduct. Brad Ference did not receive a fighting major.

Feb 15, 2003	1pd 09:13	PIT	@ NJD	Jim McKenzie
Comments: McKenzie wanted McKenna right off the faceoff, right after the pens went up 2-0. They were both throwing, but then Steve's right arm got tied up in his jersey and his elbow pad was down around his wrist so he couldn't throw. McKenzie just teed off on him with lefts from there and McKenna had to bail.

Feb 18, 2003	2pd 09:38	@ PIT	EDM	Georges Laraque
Comments: They come together in the neutral zone and off come the gloves. McKenna throws two left uppercuts, one which lands. Laraque throws three solid left hands. McKenna is now turned around and Laraque is just throwing left after left at the back of McKenna's head. Linesmen jump in.

Mar 06, 2003	3pd 07:57	@ PIT	CAR	Tomas Malec
Comments: Malec Speared Ian Moran in the neutral zone in the second period. Pushor and Manderville both went after Malec but it was Mandeville that ended on top throwing rights, Mandy landed 2 good ones and Malec covered up and received nothing. Next period McKenna goes after Malec, no real fight, he just tossed him around like a rag doll and Ville Niemenen ended up going with Malec. Pretty good scrap, both guys throwing and landing, Niemenen's lip was cut, but Niemenen did a good job of standing up for a teammate. Other Penalties: McKenna received an instigator, misconduct and game misconduct; Nieminen a double instigator, misconduct and game misconduct. Tomas Malec did not receive a fighting major.

Mar 23, 2003	1pd 09:44	PIT	@ CHI	Sami Helenius
Comments: Helanius and Mario have words at center ice. On the next shift McKenna comes out and goes right after Helanius. Helanius thows the first punch and didn't get much. Then McKenna threw two, they didn't look like they got too much, but Steve had Helanius backing up. It looked like Helanius didn't want any more and Steve just over-powered him and got the takedown.
