Helenius and Dingman drop gloves on the faceoff. Helenius kind of pushed Dingman against the boards while Dingman kind of rope-a-doped Helenius. Then Dingman swings three times and connects on all three. Helenius then used his strength to slam Dingman onto the ice.

Helenius didn't throw a punch after Low got his left going. (His right hand is injured according to Blues color man kelly Chase). Low threw a whole bunch of lefts from in tight and some got helmet maybe the side of Sammy's face, but nothing major.

They shove behind Dallas' net and Helenius get a left jab in with the gloves on. They both throw their gloves off and Helenius connects with a right to the face. He then throws two more rights that don't connect and then throws another right to the back of the helmet. Clymer is leaning back trying to avoid any punches Sami is now trying to throw. Helenius tries a few more rights that miss or land to the back of the head. Other Penalties: Helenius received a roughing.

Camera get in as the two are clutching and grabbing. Helenius is holding Jody off with the left while Shelley has a left hand full of collar. Jody's right is free. Shelly is feeding Helenius pieces of his left knuckle by pushing his fist into his face while holding his left collar. Annoying no doubt. Oooh, he actually made that short left count as Helenius' head snaps back. There's another one to the jaw. Jody gives him three more of the really short lefts. No damage done but they are making contact. Sami pushes him away as he's getting aggravated with it all. Funny thing, now Helenius has a left full of collar and is feeding Shelley some of the three inch piston shots. He pushes about three of'em into Shelley's jaw. Shelley ain't having it and lands a long right to the jaw. This removes Helenius' helmet who returns a right but it's hard to call due to the camera angle. Another right from the Finn rocks the back of Shelley's helmet. Jody is game and returns a right that falls way short. Locked out a bit now and Helenius fires another hand-full-of-collar left to Shelley's jaw. Shelley let's go with a big right that appears to graze Helenius' face which is sporting a little blood from the nose. Shelley is bent over and locked out. Helenius throws a nothing right and then misses with a left. Now Shelley throws a few hand-full-of-collar lefts. Blah, blah, blah... Ouch! As Shelley straightens up he is met by an incoming left to the eye. That hurt. Luckily he gets bent over again which causes a second left to miss. Jody straightens up with a purpose and fires a right which grazes Helenius' face. Another right grazes as well and a third doesn't quite make it. Helenius lands a right to the helmet and then both guys miss rights. Ding Dong! Heavy duty rights in stereo and it is on! Another Shelley right drills the right side of Helenius' face while Sami's right goes off course. Another Shelley right lands to the jaw as he evades a Helenius right. It's non stop as Shelley connects to the forehead this time while taking one on the top of his helmet. Write it down, Helenius came up on the short end of that barage and his bell is ringing. He buries his head in Shelley's chest and is wondering where the linesmen are. Shelley lands nine noogie shots while in tight. They're in real close and the linesmen are circling. Helenius is facing his opponent now and gives Shelley a short left semi-uppercut that lands to the jaw. Well Helenius' helmet has popped back on and off goes Jody's! Weird. They're still in close and Shelley ends up behind Helenius and fires a heavy right into the back of his helmet. Off balance now and down they go. Some blood on the ice and Shelley's jersey. The zebras hop in but these two are finished. Helenius may have a cut near the right eye too.
