Oct 15, 2002	2pd 02:20	Dennis Bonvie	PHO	Darcy Hordichuk
Comments: Hordi just pounds on Bonvie early on with about 4 to 5 rights all on target. Bonvie finally gets it together with some lefts to slow Hordi down a tad. Hordi then fires a few more and busts Bonvie's nose wide open. Bonvie is bleeding hard and is stunned. Bonvie finishes off with a couple of heavy uppercuts, with one nailing Hordi hard on the chin, which slows him down a bit.

Oct 15, 2002	2pd 09:17	Wade Redden	PHO	Mike Johnson
Comments: Started after a scrum in front of the net when two Yotes threw Martin Havlat to the ice after taking one too many swipes after the whistle. Redden came to his aid and skated right into the two (Mike Johnson and Daymond Langkow). No one else came to Redden's aid for a few seconds until Radek Bonk came in an put his arm in the scrum, but faced away from the scrum as if he was "protecting his face". The rest of the Sens looked on like little children ... Eventually Johnson and Redden break off and start to go at center ice. Mostly just jarring for position with most of the punches going to the side/shoulder pads. Redden gets his left loose from his jersey and switches up and goes with his left; he lands one, maybe two decent shots to the side of Johnson's head before the fight concludes when the linesman come in. Other Penalties: Martin Havlat, Redden and Johnson each received an unsportsmanlike conduct.

Oct 24, 2002	1pd 18:34	Dennis Bonvie	@BOS	Sean Brown
Comments: Gloves came off before the ref could drop the puck for a face off in the Senators end. Good even square off. Brown had the early edge landing a pretty good right to the face of Bonvie. Bonvie obviously had the strength advantage as he pretty much ragdolled Brown all the way to the boards and scored the take down. Long, yet not so entertaining battle. Also, both guys were given misconducts for starting the fight before the ref dropped the puck. Old time hockey. Other Penalties: Both players received misconducts.

Oct 24, 2002	2pd 07:53	Wade Redden	@BOS	Michal Grosek
Comments: Redden lost his stick and was trying to play the puck with his feet when Grosek just drilled him into the boards. The camera panned away from the action momentarily and when it came back to the two players, the gloves were off. The fight didn't last long as Grosek landed the only punch that was a glancing blow causing Redden to lose his balance. Grosek threw a few more on the way down scoring the takedown.

Nov 09, 2002	1pd 07:14	Shane Hnidy	@BOS	P.J. Stock
Comments: PJ throws a check behind the net, and in return is hit with an elbow from Hnidy. PJ pushes him off and Hnidy drops the gloves. PJ also drops em', but just grabs on looking around trying to get the pp! Finally after eating a few shots he fights back and evens it up a bunch. Other Penalties: Hnidy received an instigator and misconduct.

Nov 09, 2002	2pd 04:00	Shane Hnidy	@BOS	P.J. Stock
Comments: Stock hits Hnidy from behind into the boards and they skate up ice with Hnidy shoving Stock and knocking his helmet off. Stock plays the puck up ice, circles around the defensive zone, and hits Hnidy hard against the glass. The two then push and shove before dropping the gloves. Stock throws a quick uppercut and a right followed by two more rights to the back of Hnidy's helmet. The two wrestle around and Stock throws another short flurry that dislodges Hnidy's helmet from his head. Hnidy pins Stock up against the glass and throws two lefts, but Stock returns fire with four quick lefts, two of them connecting. Hnidy throws a few rabbit punches and an uppercut while Stock continues to try and get an arm free. Stock then pumps away with his right while Hnidy tries to move away from the punches. Stock then continues to throw a mix of rights and lefts at Hnidy who is unable to respond with very much. Stock eventually tires out and the linesmen come in.
Voted winner: P.J. Stock (69.2%) - Voted rating: 6.9

Nov 09, 2002	2pd 09:48	Dennis Bonvie	@BOS	Sean Brown
Comments: The puck is dropped and Brown throws a high cross check on Bonvie and they drop em. They square off and Brown starts it off with a nice right catching Bonvie as he was reaching in to grab Brown's jersey. Brown lands as few more good rights as most of Bonvie's are coming up short. Brown throws a huge right which barely misses and spins Bonvie around and loses his balance as Bonvie lands on top of him and throws a late shot or two while Brown is down. Bonvie got up and yelled at the ref about the cross check (which Brown got tossed for). Other Penalties: Brown received an attempt to injure match penalty.

Nov 09, 2002	3pd 14:40	Mike Fisher	@BOS	Mike Knuble
Comments: Knuble catches a Sen with his stick while falling to the ice and Fisher comes to the rescue. Fisher nails Knuble with some good uppercuts as Knuble counters with a few rights before Fisher puts him down with some more uppercuts. Other Penalties: Fisher received a roughing and misconduct; P.J. Stock a roughing and game misconduct.

Nov 09, 2002	3pd 14:40	Zdeno Chara	@BOS	Hal Gill
Comments: During the Knuble-Fisher fight Chara gives Gill the stick tap which is called two huge spears by Dale Arnold. They drop em' and Gill gets Chara down and everyone on the ice jumps in for a lengthy scrum. Gill comes very close to getting nailed in the face with Chara's skate. After Bonvie makes an attempt to get to Stock, but the officials wouldn't have it. Other Penalties: Both players received game misconducts.

Nov 12, 2002	1pd 16:56	Shane Hnidy	@NYI	Jason Wiemer
Comments: Along the boards they grab hold. Actually, that's about all you need to know, as this one never got going. Wiemer got in some quick shots, one left and a couple of rights (including some body shots). Nothing seemed to do any damage and it was mainly grappling the whole time.

Comments: They drop them by the benches. Mair is wailing away with the left. A bunch of shots land, some miss. Mair rips Neil's helmet off and hits him twice with it. Mair is going crazy with the left, hard to tell if he's landing them all. Neil finally throws a few back and lands one or two, others come up short. Mair with more lefts, including one that appears to land well. Very entertaining fight. Other Penalties: Mair received an attempt to injure match penalty.

Comments: Boulerice looked like he wanted it and Neil accepts. A couple nothing shots by each and they fall, however there is only one linesman over there and he lets em get up. The first punch that is thrown is a big right cross by Boulerice that connects and down goes Neil.

Dec 27, 2002	1pd 20:00	Chris Neil	MON	Randy McKay
Comments: They collide in the corner and McKay doesn't back down. Neil throws the gloves, as does McKay and they grapple in tight for position. Lots of wrestling going on here, and no one can get the hand free. McKay manages to land a couple of weak lefts and maybe a right to the face, while Neil lands maybe a very slightly harder couple of punches with the right. They continue to pull in tight with McKay really trying to get free. Neil has him tied up good and spins and manages to get himself half-loose, but before anything lands the linesmen come in.

Dec 27, 2002	2pd 16:47	Chris Neil	MON	Bill Lindsay
Comments: Happens off the draw at center ice after the Habs score to tie it 1-1. Not much of a fight, but Neil kind of ragdolls Lindsay and gets a couple of shots in as Lindsay goes down. Neil tries to pump up the crowd as he's going off.

Dec 30, 2002	3pd 19:41	Mike Fisher	@NAS	Cale Hulse
Comments: The Sens were pressing in the last minute, Nashville cleared the puck and Redden and Walker were in a footrace for it. Redden won the race, but Walker gave him a little shove and then everyone came in. Chara was after Walker, but they were just tangled up more then anything. The only real fight was Hulse and Fisher, and Hulse being much bigger controlled the fight. Gave Fisher a few good rights, then when Fisher got his jersey over his head, Hulse tagged him with a right that sent him down. Other Penalties: Wade Redden, Zdeno Chara, Rem Murray and Scott Walker each received a double roughing; Hulse received a roughing.

Jan 02, 2003	2pd 03:09	Chris Neil	ATL	Jeff Odgers
Comments: Getting totally blown out of the game, Odgers starts jawing with Neil. They both drop the gloves. Odgers lands about 4 or 5 short ones to the side of Neil's head. Neither fighter wants to let go of the other, so they're clutching tight. Odgers finally gets Neil's helmet off, but he's in too tight to do anything. Neil lands a couple of glancing shots and they go down with Neil on top.

Jan 06, 2003	2pd 05:16	Zdeno Chara	@NYR	Matt Barnaby
Comments: Barnaby wanted to go with Chara and Chara accepts willingly. They have a nice squareoff, then Barnaby dives in with rabbit punches that may have landed. Chara then throws some rights that may have landed. They start swinging around the ice like a merry-go-round and Chara lands a couple of punches before finally losing his balance and falling on Barnaby.

Feb 15, 2003	1pd 19:59	Chris Neil	@TOR	Tie Domi
Comments: The period's over, literally one second left, and Neil takes a healthy run at Domi. Domi takes exception, turns to Neil, has a few words, then drops the gloves and tags him with a left. Neil gets his own mitts off a split-second late and takes some lefts. Domi lifted the front of Neil's jersey over his face. With the jersey up, Tie landed a few more shots with the left.

Feb 20, 2003	1pd 08:07	Shaun Van Allen	FLA	Stephane Matteau
Comments: Matteau checks Van Allen, may have got the elbow up a little and they drop the gloves and get a grip. Van Allen a right to the shoulder, Matteau a right to the shoulder, Van Allen a right to the shoulder and another Matteau right comes up short. They both throw rights, Van Allen''s comes up short and Matteau''s grazes chin. Van Allen is then trying to get his arm out of his sleeve and gets off balance and Matteau takes advantage with a right that lands on the nose, followed by another right that lands and puts Van Allen down.

Comments: Camera gets there late, they are both willingly throwing, but nothing seems to land. From the high cam that shows how the fight starts it looks like Stevenson gets off about three punches, maybe connecting on one or two. Hard to tell what landed.

Feb 25, 2003	3pd 18:04	Chris Neil	MIN	Jeremy Stevenson
Comments: Both players run into each other and drop the gloves, Stevenson lands a punch on the temple, partially helmet, then Neil misses. Stevenson hits his helmet, both throw big punches but both miss, then Neil misses with another. Stevenson gets his helmet off and gets a light punch to the side of his head and a light punch to the back of Neil's head. You could really tell that Stevenson was pissed off in this fight by the look on his face.

Mar 04, 2003	2pd 15:40	Chris Neil	TOR	Tie Domi
Comments: Lots of talk between the two after the puck is dropped. They nod, and drop the gloves. Neil is throwing rights which seem to hit air. Domi is just lining up Neil and connecting with haymakers. Domi tries another haymaker, which misses. Domi's got Neil in the spin cycle now. Neil tries to answer with a few rights. Glancing blows. Domi hits another haymaker and loses his balance. Neil nails Domi with a good right hand, and Domi hits the ice. Probably not a TKO because Domi was already off-balance.

Mar 04, 2003	3pd 07:30	Chris Neil	TOR	Darcy Tucker
Comments: Green is chirping at the Sens bench, pointing to Neil. He's being held back by a linesman and a couple of Sens players. Tucker comes out of nowhere and throws a crosscheck at Neil. The melee ensues. Neil throws 4-5 rights at Tucker, who's throwing several gloved punches back. Everyone on the Sens bench that got involved were just trying to break things up, but the Leafs didn't see it that way. Jacques Martin even gets involved, which angers Quinn. He picks up a stick and goes towards the Sens bench. Tucker is now squared off with Hnidy on the ice, but he seems exhausted and is just holding on. Tucker is led off the ice as the Sens bench have words with both Quinn and Domi. Other Penalties: Tucker received an instigator, misconduct and double game misconduct; Hnidy a game misconduct; Neil a game misconduct; Travis Green a charging.

Comments: Heins slams Neil into the boards, Neil is shakin up. On the next faceoff Teteranko went after Heins, and Heins didn't hesitate to drop his gloves. Heins got a few rights in, it looked like they hit helmet, then Tetarenko threw a couple that looked to hit Heins in the shoulder pad area. Tetarenko then went for an uppercut and didn't get much, then he landed a punch and Heins went down, but got right back up and threw a couple as both men were going down.

Comments: Really not much of a fight. Late in the second period Neil starts roughing up Craig MacDonald for several seconds. Adams steps in and after a couple of shoves they drop the gloves and lock up. Neil throws a couple of punches, couldn't tell if he landed an uppercut since the camera angle was directly behind Adams. Adams didn't get any punches off. The linesmen broke it up pretty quickly. Other Penalties: Neil received a roughing.

Mar 21, 2003	2pd 18:51	Chris Neil	@ATL	Chris Tamer
Comments: Starts at the side of the Atlanta net. Tamer comes out firing first. He fires off about 5 shots or so that go unanswered. Almost looked to hurt Neil. Neil comes back with a few, but Chris is between the camera and Tamer so it's hard to tell if anything was landed. Looked like a few shots perhaps and he pulls Tamer off-balance and he goes down while Neil throws another shot or two.

Cowan throws some nothing punches at the back of Neil's head and the linesmen jump in. Right after Cowan/Neil scrap, Odgers plays his usual big brother role and Chara takes exception. The gloves come off and Odgers goes to throw a couple before it's quickly broken up. Other Penalties: Cowan and Neil each received a roughing; Jeff Odgers and Zdeno Chara each received misconducts.

Neil has Doig tied up good and Doig is throwing, but not landing and Neil counters with some good uppercuts. Both started holding on and all of a sudden Doig gets loose and throws two good lefts that drop Neil. The last left from Doig caught Neil good and he looked woozy skating to the box.
