Oct 10, 1996 1pd 18:21 Alexander Karpovtsev DAL Grant Marshall
Comments: The fight starts beside the Rangers' net. Marshall and Karpovtsev each drop their gloves and grab on. They start off exchanging a few rights a piece, nothing really landing. Marshall switches to the left and throws the next five punches. The first seems to catch Karpovtsev, who was surprised by the change, but he fended off the rest. Karpovtsev's right hand is caught up in his jersey. He is trying to get it out when Marshall tries going with the left some more, and as Marshall starts throwing they also start spinning. Karpovtsev does a good job fending off more of Marshall's punches. Karpovtsev gets his arm free of Marshall's grip and hits the back of Marshall's head twice. He then tries two uppercuts that come up short. Marshall answers with two lefts that hit Karpovtsev's shoulder. They start grappling and each throw a couple of short punches. while they're in-close Karpovtsev gets his right arm out of his jersey and each player starts throwing big punches, Marshall with the left and Karpovtsev with the right. Each throws five or six, but only one or two land for each. Marshall takes a huge left swing that misses and the momentum causes him to be hunched over. With Karpovtsev leaning on him the linesmen come in and break them up. Other Penalties: Karpovtsev received a game misconduct.
Voted winner: Draw (46.2%) - Voted rating: 6.8

Oct 10, 1996 2pd 14:18 Eric Cairns DAL Grant Marshall
Comments: Cairns and Marshall start pushing in front of the Rangers' net after a whistle and each drop the gloves and square off. They lunge in and each player grabs on with the left and throws with the right. After a couple of punches miss their mark, Marshall tags Cairns right on the chin. The punch rocks Cairns, but Cairns stays on his feet. Cairns responds with another right that Marshall slips and counters with a left to the side of Cairns' head/helmet. They do a 180 and Cairns tries a left that Marshall ducks under. Marshall now has his head buried in Cairns' midsection and has a hold of Cairns' leg trying for a take down. Cairns throws two uppercuts that make Marshall lift his head. He comes up swinging with a right that comes up short. Cairns then unloads with three rights that miss their mark and Marshall responds with three lefts that come up short. They somehow pull away from each other, but they're not ready for the fight to end. The linesmen try and stop it, but the fighters re-engage. Marshall immediately goes for Cairns' leg for the take down, but Cairns starts throwing right uppercuts and the linesmen come in before he can do any damage to Marshall.
Voted winner: Grant Marshall (43.5%) - Voted rating: 7.2

Oct 16, 1996 2pd 02:24 Darren Langdon PIT Alek Stojanov
Comments: When the camera gets there Stojanov hits Langdon in the helmet with a right. Langdon then gets a pretty good grip on Stojanov's right. Stojanov spends the next few seconds trying to get his right free. As he's doing that, Langdon releases Stojanov's right arm and throws a left that might have landed. Stojanov answers with five lefts in-close. All the lefts seem to hit Langdon's shoulder or helmet. Stojanov then tries a right that Langdon fends off. They wrestle for a while, each exchanging some punches in-close, but no damage done. They finally get some separation. Stojanov tries a right uppercut that comes up short. Stojanov then tries a straight right that connects well to the side of Langdon's head. Stojanov then tries three more rights, all of which come up short or hit Langdon's shoulder. Stojanov tries three more rights, two land to the side of Langdon's head and one comes up short. They then exchange three rights a piece. Langdon looks to get the better of the short exchange. Stojanov then gets his right tied up and Langdon tries three rights. The first right looks to land, but the next two hit Stojanov's helmet. Stojanov tries to answer with a left, but it comes up short. Langdon switches to the left and tries two punches, but Stojanov ducks them both. Stojanov answers with a right that comes up short and then a body punch. They start exchanging rights. Stojanov throws eight to Langdon's six, but few, if any, of the punches land. Each of the players are still throwing when the linesmen for some reason come in and break the fight up. Excellent long bout.
Voted winner: Draw (57.6%) - Voted rating: 7.9

Nov 09, 1996 1pd 02:38 Eric Cairns @WAS Craig Berube
Comments: Long square off. They spin for about 15 seconds before Cairns grabs on. Cairns throws four rights, two land to the back of Berube's head. Berube gets going with the right, missing one, then landing two. They spin and both land shots at the same time. They do the same thing again, but this time Berube's shot lands square dropping Cairns.

Dec 06, 1996 1pd 08:00 Darren Langdon TOR Tie Domi
Comments: They drop em off the faceoff and Domi has the lefts going, throwing four in a row. One uppercut lands, then he throws about ten more punches, with four landing as Langdon just hangs on. Langdon finally answers with a right that grazes Domi. They grapple, and then Domi gets the jersey over Langdon's head and throws two lefts, one looking to land. After the last punch, Langdon gets the jersey back up over his head, and they wrestle each other to the ice.
Voted winner: Tie Domi (97.6%) - Voted rating: 6.4

Comments: They meet up at center ice and Cairns has the rights going, the first one nailing Webb right to the face, followed by three more rights that looked to graze Webb. Webb answers back with two rights, all missing as he tries to stay on his feet from bad balance. He finally falls over with Cairns throwing a right that hits him on the shoulder, then the linesman come in to break it up.

Feb 21, 1997 3pd 09:25 Darren Langdon @HFD Stu Grimson
Comments: They come together out of a scrum and Grimson opens up with a left that catches Langdon on the jaw. Grimson waits a second or two before he attempts another left, but it comes up short. Langdon then tries to answer with a couple of lefts that don't reach their mark. Langdon switches hands and throws a weak punch. Grimson then takes Langdon's jersey with his right hand, pulls it over Langdon's head and closes his hand tight around the head opening. Grimson then tries a left, it is hard to tell how hard it connects, but the punch makes Langdon lose his balance and he goes down to the ice.
Voted winner: Stu Grimson (100.0%) - Voted rating: 6.2
