Cody, gotta connect pal. Mac wins on landing percentage and Cody drags him down.
McCarty landed a few more shots, plus they looked harder! He didn't get the takedown but takes the win. Good fight.
Enthusiastic draw...a brushing left verses two missed rights...take your pick. The best part of the fight is Pierre Maguire calling Cody McCormick Gordie MacClelland off the top.
Holy crap! A fight in the playoffs?? Hell has frozen over I guess. Crappy fight. DRAW
Nice to see McCarty back at it. So-so fight at best, though. McCarty landed more and better looking shots but went down too easily. Draw.
Fair dropping of the gloves, always nice to see but I don't know how this gets a 6.1 rating besides of the fact that people need a hockey fight to vote on cause it's dry in the playoffs and people are basically blood thirsty. McCarty may have landed 'A' left at the beginning stages but that's all. McCormick looked to have missed with the rights. The 2nd goal by Frazen was a better highlight. Don't get me wrong I love scraps and I've seen McCarty in better scraps with Colorado like that 1 with Deadmarsh in the game when McCarty came back and scored the OT winner, and he beat down Claude early in that regular season contest. Most of his best were in the 93-94 season though.
There are either lots of Detroit homers voting for this, or just people voting based on Darren McCarty's name regonition. He did not win this fight. Both guys "landed" the same amount of punches and McCormick got the better of him at the end. All in all though, draw. At least someone dropped the gloves.
DRAW.
nice to see D-Mac throwing punches again
A good fight by both but not a great one. A draw, but why? McCarty landed more shots, yes... but McCormick landed one pretty solid shot to the start of the fight. McCormick took over in the end getting top of McCarty. A great to see McCarty fightning.
McCarty is destroying him at first, but mcCormick gets this fight at the end..very close
draw Now the Avs fighters show up...
mccarty is a good fighter
McCormick needs to take lessons from the vet and this was a good one for him .
COLORADO=====PUZZYS. COLORADO GOING DOWN. STILL JACKIN THEIR JAWS UP AND DOWN THE ICE. MCLEOD STILL A TOOTHLESS LITTLE BITCH WITH NO BALLS. COLORADO CAN SUCK IT. GIVE THE WIN TO MCARTY.
Preety tight fight. mccarty dodged a few and landed more. The only reason why McCormick was on top of him was because Mccarty fell. One solid shot didnt sway the fight for me. McCarty takes this one.
edge Mac... good to see him droppin' the mitts in a wings jersey again
McCormick got one shot right at the start, the rest completely missed. McCarty took over with a few punches and then avoided the rest of McCormicks punches. I have to give the nod to McCarty, even though he got off balance and went down on his back at the end.
Way to go Mac. You'r perserverence in getting on track has been an inspiration to me. Keep you'r duke's up
Carts keeps the punches short, sharp and crisp. Mccormack beats the absolute crapola out of the air; looks like the only punch he landed was more by his bicep than fist in the end. He looks like he can outmuscle mccarty but Cody loses on points because he didn't really land any. You can always tell it's the playoffs when they go through this dropping the glove ritual to get the other guy an instigator. Sorry but the refs aren't going to be stupid enough to think about using an instigator here. They know who the wise guys are. In the Penguin Flyer series the 2 main agitators, Downie and Ruutu did this same thing by their player benches and wound up not fighting. Cart and Corm did it right , just drop 'em.
go wings
Not a bad scrap. Did you see McCarty duck those haymakers? I'm giving McCarty the close win.
OK bout, but considering the crap we've been subjected to watch since the playoffs started, not bad. Edge to McCarty, great to see one of the "old school" boys back on the ice. All we've seen so far in the playoffs is hugging, kissing, and rubbing each others' arses. Thanks for throwin em boys!
From what I can tell, Cody threw 5...landed 1. DMac threw 9, landing 3. McCarty slips at the end, I dont think McCormick did anything to take him down. Very slight edge to Dmac, regardless of rockhawk's lobbying.
McCormick threw plenty of punches, but McCarty slipped all of them. Darren got in a a couple of good straight rights for the decision.
hey cory! little reminder * McCarty is a south paw!!! flurry by mccarty was the difference, but mccormick got in a few good ones too. bout time, ive been fiending for a playoff tussle
Slight edge D Mac, he ducked quite a few shots and landed more. i didnt look like that first shot from cody did that much damage
Close win for McCarty. He's a stand-up guy-good to see him back!
McCarty wins in what would be, even in the regular season, an OK fight. McCormick lands nothing but a late body punch, while McCarty's flurry of lefts get him the nod.
The scorecard goes to McCarty
McCarty under complete control
great fight but McCarty threw the best ones. I give it to him cause he took that haymaker in the begining and stayed up while throwing mcCormick to the ice..
Good spirited go, lots of wild swings by McCormick, didn't land any, but got the takedown - edge McCarty
EDGE-McCarty. mccormick maybe delt some more pain since mccarty's heltmet was off but mccarty landed way more punches obviously and we all know take-downs stand for crap
mccarty all the way.
mccarty all the way
Darren McCarty is the best fighter in the NHL
mccormick got in a good early punch. mccarty was hitting the air more than his opponent. close, but you have to give it to the youngster.
How anyone voted for McCarty is beyond me!
How is McCarty winning this vote? No Col fans or just alot of Detroit myopic fans. Mccormick won from start to finish with McCarty answering a little in the middle.
Fuck the red wings and anybody who likes em.
Okay playoff scrap between two guys who were careful enough to avoid the extra two - should be rated a draw. But RockHawk is right -need to balance out the Detroit homers (wow, are you all 11-year-olds like the kid screaming derogatory stuff about Colorado?), so win McCormick.
short lil lefts by mccarty don't give him the decision... Least Cody was in there trying to make something happen (landed a clean shot at the start), and not that i give many points for take downs, but that is more codys physical strength and mccarty trying to avoid getting lit up then him tripping and falling accidently close one but edge to McCormick to even out some of the meatheads voting the other way
I think McCormick had the edge. McCarty is getting old, but he can still throw a few. It was close, but I have to give it to McCormick. What a bad game by my team though. Not even this fight could save their crappy performance.
I give the nod to McCormick
McCormick landed big with his first swing, but after that he swung haymakers but landed nothing. McCarty landed a couple, and they fell to the ice. Nothing great but considering what has gone on so far throughout the playoffs it's a big deal.
even amount of punches from each one.
I love the way this one starts.....both guys are worried about the other not dropping the gloves.
Not the best McCarty fight, but decent in actuality of punches thrown and landed.
Slight edge to McCarty
Great fight! McCormick did not land any punches he threw. McCarty gets the edge.
Cody shouldn't have been there. While Cody tossed Darren's helmet, he got pummeled. Darren clearly the winner.
WOW !! You Wings homers are disgusting ! I love McCarty as a player..but NOOOO way did he win this fight..Draw at best , but im giving it to McCormick to even out the completely idiotic voting here a little. Can somebody that voted McCarty please tell me the second mark in the fight where McCarty lands anything worth a $hit ? megnlou06...did you really just say that ?!!?!?!?!!
Acceptable but better fights have been had.
Tough to judge, I would say draw but that first one McCormick landed was vicious. The rest was close, but I give this one to McCormick by the slightest of margins.
After not much but face washing for a while these playoffs it was good to see somebody drop the gloves for once. And more punching then dancing doesnt hurt either.
