Commercial after the Shelley-Erskine fight. They come back and show a replay of Spacek laying on the ice (very exciting). They slowly cut to the fight and Ott is covered up with Ling on top, and the linesmen already in between them. Didn't seem like much happened, and it happened fast.

They drop the gloves at center ice and by time the camera gets there they have each other tied up, yet Bootland some how has the left free and is chucking short jabs that aren't really connecting because Ling has Boot's jersey up in front of his face. Most of the punches thrown hit the glass. No damage done. Other Penalties: Bootland received an instigator and misconduct.

Weight cross checks Ling in the back, and Ling tries to go after Weight. Drake jumps in and starts wailing away on Ling. Drake is throwing punches wildly, wiith most of them landing, sending Ling reeling. Ling tries to answer with a weak punch that may have landed, but did no real damage. Drake lands a couple of more punches sending Ling to a knee, and the linesmen jump in. Other Penalties: Lasse Pirjeta received a tripping.

Off the faceoff after the Shelley-Parker fight they quickly shed the gloves and Ling grabs on. They're in-close and Ling tries a right. Smith has his head burried into Ling's chest as they try to throw punches, none of which land. Ling throws a left that wiffs and Smith comes out of his jeresey and falls to the ice.

Feb 16, 2004	1pd 03:21	@ CBJ	NAS	Jeremy Stevenson
They go right off the faceoff, the third fight in four seconds. Stevenson throws two rights that maybe grazed Ling and Ling responds with a left that grazed Stevenson back. Stevenson comes back with a right. They traded a few in-close shots, couldn't tell what hit. Then Stevenson looked to switch hands and hit Ling with a left or two and they fell. Ling was dripping blood all over and headed off.

Feb 21, 2004	2pd 19:35	CBJ	@ LOS	John Tripp
Luke Richardson hits Sean Avery from behind and shortly after there's a scrum. On the next faceoff Tripp and Ling drop the gloves the moment the puck is dropped. Ling dives in and throws a few lefts as Tripp tries to get off some rights. Ling's first left lands nicely, and the next couple don't quite make the mark. Tripp's shots miss. Ling's moving forward and gets one hand high, one low, and then takes down Tripp bodyslam-style.

Feb 27, 2004	2pd 02:56	CBJ	@ CHI	Mark Bell
Bell has some words with Nash, gives him a push and Nash trips him up. Bell gets up and Ling pushes him back down. Bell then gets back up and goes straight for Ling. They grab on, and Ling throws a left that Bell didn't expect. They're jostling for position while Ling throws a few short punches that don't connect. Bell bends over and mostly comes out of his jersey with some help from Ling. Bell grabs Ling behind the head, slightly bending him forward and throws a few uppercuts that connect to Ling's torso and then wrestles Ling to the ice, and throws another while the linesmen come in.
Voted winner: Draw (61.1%) - Voted rating: 3.6

Ling lays one of the best hits of this year on a Wild player, and in comes Wiemer to challenge. Ling connects with a big left across the jaw and then Wiemer gets Ling's jersey over his head and Ling slips down to the ice. Wiemer holds on and starts throwing rights, with about three landing to the back of Ling's jersey-covered head. Other Penalties: Wiemer received an instigator and misconduct.
Voted winner: Jason Wiemer (92.0%) - Voted rating: 5.1

Mar 27, 2004	2pd 08:20	CBJ	@ NAS	Jordin Tootoo
Tootoo runs Spacek, Ling asks for a dance and Tootoo obliges. They shed the gloves and grab on. They exchange a couple of lefts, nothing major landing. Tootoo switches to the right and pushes Lings helmet off and throws a couple of short rights that are ineffective. Tootoo gets Ling's jersey over his head and tries a couple of lefts, but no damage was done to Ling. Ling tries to come over the top with a blind left but hits Tootoo's right shoulder. The linesmen see Ling's head is stuck in his jersey and come in to separate the two. Other Penalties: Ling received an instigator and misconduct.
Voted winner: Jordin Tootoo (50.0%) - Voted rating: 3.9
