Thornton knocks Marleau down with an open-ice hit and is then quickly shoved and challenged by Clowe. They drop the gloves and grab ahold of each other. The two grapple for a moment and then each attempt a locked-out right that comes up short. Clowe ties Thornton up and gets in two rights. Thornton is able to get loose and throw a left. Clowe goes down to his knees and Thornton takes advantage by taking Clowe's helmet off and then throwing another left. Clowe stands back up and Thornton connects with a right cross. Clowe comes back with a right and Thornton shakes off his elbow pad. They exchange simultaneous rights that just miss and Clowe responds with two more rights of his own. Thornton throws a right, leans back, and then throws another right that lands. Clowe returns fire with two lefts and Thornton is able to duck underneath Clowe's right arm. They wrestle around for a short moment in an awkward position and Thornton throws a left to the side of Clowe's head once they adjust themselves. Thornton switches hands and they go back and forth with a mix of rights and jersey-jabs until the linesmen decide to intervene and end the fight.
Solid Draw...both of them were extremely tired going into the fight.
need more time too fight
2 minutes each for roughing. Horrible Fight
a hugging draw
Obvious draw. Both were at the end of the shift. It definitely gave the momentum to the Sharks. Hannan scored the ensuing goal. What this video doesn't highlight is the brilliant coaching card pulled by Ron Wilson before OT started regarding Selanne's stick. He and his equipment staff were savvy to remember that Teemu was a cheater when he was with the Sharks and most likely was still a cheater. Way to go Sharks. Let's see how many goals he scores with his legal stick now!
yawn...
They hung on to each other for a while but neither combatant caused any damage to their foe. Draw
Looked like the fight was in Slow-Motion; and a draw.
Not much landing by either guy. A DRAW.
did anyone connect with a punch????????????????????? Draw because of that!!!!!!!!!!!
ngmcs8203, we obviously know you dont know hockey .haha Ron Wilson is such a poon he would do that. Selanne is still one of the top players in the NHl and hes 36 years old. having a stick thats a lil thick,like your mom, doesnt count as cheating...Sharks blow....So do you...
Decent fight for the end of a shift. I felt tired just looking at them. Still, way to make the effort.
Credits to Clowe to defens his team plaer!!!!!!
jayc948 hey whats with you ( we are not blind ) just give us your take on the fight we dont need a blow by blow replay
As was said ealier, both guys were at the end of a shift, and it showed. Still, not that bad of a fight. a Draw is the fair conclusion. What an intense game otherwise. Ducks need to learn to hold on to a lead.
ok job by both, grab on and punching away some shots. DRaw
I was in the front row for this bout. A lot of posturing at the start, but both players kept the refs off of them long enough to land a couple of big shots. Clowe was at the end of his shift, it looked like Thornton had just got on the ice. The hits really picked up in the second. Another video of the fight is up on youtube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpOJ5KSiSPQ

it was pretty much a draw imo but if i had to give it to anyone its clowe
Horrible horrible fight! Booooooooring!!!! The state of hockey fights is awful and these bore-fests seem to be all we're getting. This is worse than watching the WNBA.
draw
Decent tilt
The first fight they had was much better, this one was a piece of crap to watch. To much shirt tugging and tying up. If you're going to drop the gloves, go ahead and fight!
Clowe should have got an additional 2 minute/instigator
Not a bad scrap. Clowe showed well against a bona fide fighter.
Pretty evenly matched with edge to Thornton on experience and strength.
Thornton landed more punches and gets the nod. Good little scrap from both players.
Edge Thornton... But you gotta love Ryan Clowe!!!
Thornton threw more punches but none connected...clowe threw precise one's that did....but a draw I think
Clowe was at the end of his shift, he was a little out of gas, but he held his own.
Thornton is alot better at this sort of thing that Clowe but Clowe was sticking up for his teammate and held his own. You have to love guys like him.
Draw.
great fight, no clear winner. we need more like that.
I have to give Thornton the slight edge in this less than stellar bout.
Considering the obvious reach advantage for Thornton, Clowe held his own on this one. Clowe is a scrapper and earned my respect.
