  • Why do they NOT break up fights: we love it

  • RIP Boogaard & Belak.

  • holy shit!! 2 dead guys fighting each other..weird to be fighting someone who'll be dead along with you around the same time..good thing Wade won..GO PANTHERS!!!!! bring us SOMETHING Tallon.

  • RIP both of them!

  • Coming froma huge Panthers fan / season ticket holder, I am sad of Belak's passing. R.I.P. Man

  • @KeybladeMaster035 lol panther season ticket holder. ur probably the only one!

  • @khav11 Hater. We got thousands. Hockey belongs in Florida.

  • @KeybladeMaster035 LOL ask canadians

  • @khav11 Mhmm k. I'm Canadian. Hockey belongs everywhere.

  • R.I.P GUYS.. :/

  • rip man gonna miss you

  • R.I.P Derek and Wade :(

  • how are they BOTH gone now?!?!?!?! :O

    This had been an incredibly depressing off-season :(

  • @zacandashleys1fan Very true and very sad.

  • Notice the statement, "Quite an articulate argument, especially you're conclusion". Surely he means, 'your' conclusion.

  • This is no more ridiculous than throwing a baseball at someone's head, to avenge a home run by the previous batter. It's all about gaining the upper hand.

  • Quite an articulate argument, especially you're conclusion ("...you're an idiot."). There are one or two gaping holes in your thesis: 1) you simply state that hockey has a higher level of aggression and fighting, as if it's completely natural that playing at a faster tempo excuses massive violence; and 2) you write, "when black people fight in the NHL..." but, unless I'm mistaken, there are only about a two dozen black people in your sport.

    Take another look at that video, and at my 1st post.

  • @durruti771 yo dumb fuck, what about guys like laraque and brashear? nobody thought they were thugs, they were just doing their jobs. 

  • What a ridiculous sport.

    If two African-Americans get in a fight on a basketball court, it's a big deal, and an example of "thuggery" in the NBA; yet hockey has descended to the point where fights occur in every game, and as you can see in this video the refs and other players just stand around, and the commentators discuss the merits of the tactics used by the guys who are fighting ("nice left jab," etc.), because everyone understands that hockey is nothing but an excuse for pugilism.

  • @durruti771 Hockey is a compeletely different sport than basketball, it's much more fast paced, physical, and the level of aggression is much higher, therefore fighting is a part of the game. And what does race have to do with anything? When black people fight in the NHL no one considers it different than when white people fight. If white people fought in the NBA, it would be the same as if blacks did. To say hockey requires less skill than basketball just proves that you're an idiot.

  • What a ridiculous sport.

    

  • rip boogaard :(

  • wow, props to belak, almost nobody beats boogaard

  • Wow. Belak actually won

  • boogie man. best fighter in nhl

  • unanamous decision belak, but ya know boogaard was one swing away from changing the momentum....

  • even fight. belak got more punches, but boogaard got some haymakers on wade

    DRAW

  • @Slipknot5301 hey fuckhead Boogie Boy must be your fantasy boyfriend. You go posting about him everyone you fucking faggot. Poor Boogie didn't win here douchebag.

  • @xyztrain1 lol wtf i said it was a solid draw u stupid cunt

  • Win the Albino Rhino

  • anyone who thinks belak isnt a top 5 fighter is mad, he caries no rep, doesnt do cheap shots or cheap talk, works hard every shift in many positions, and the leafs gave hom away and signed brad may...pardon me while i vomit

  • lol it took forever for the refs to stop the fight whereas both guys were tired since a while

  • good classy fight

  • belak=the most underrated fighter in the nhl

  • @highstick21 I agree hes underrated but not nowadays anymore.

    In this good scrap Boogaard landed some hard shots and Belak fought pretty well later.

    SOLID DRAW in my book.

    Both had moments.

    Belak was in trouble at the end you see, but Boogaard didnt hit him still.

    

  • @highstick21 I watched Belak for years on the Leafs, and the dude was always a horrible fighter. This looked like a completely different dude.

  • belak's a fucking beast

  • Boogard is not the king of the jungle no more.

  • In my mind a right call is a DRAW.

    Both landed several strong punches.

    Belak fought a bit smarter, but Boogaard landed those typical roundhouse, long rights from himself.

    At the end Belak stopped throwing and scared when Boogaard gets loose his hand.

    Very good, solid battle without winner.

  • Definitely not. Belak was definitely the winner on this one. Got punches in early and also landed a couple of good opportunity hits later in the fight. Boogy had one or two glancing haymakers but they were a bit off in aim and didn't do very much. Belak stopped fighting out of exhaustion more than fear of Boogy's free left hand. Definitely got to give this one to Belak.

  • uuhh... one of the best 'gainst boogy... well done by wade

  • Dominating win for Belak.

  • belaks throws with his left. it kinda tricks people.

  • he tricks people because he line's up and starts throwing with his right, then switches, resulting in 2 Ko's for him last season.

  • Man i would love to fight one of them. maybe win, probably lose. but either way an awesome memory

  • easy to say that when you're sitting on your chair and not on the ice !

  • those are sum big fighters i would wanna stay out of the way if i was a linesmen

  • these two had a hell of a rivalry

  • Boogaard is finished Belak owned him all season.

  • i jus dont see how boogaard got "OWNED" he just started bad because of his balance

  • Belak won !!! Love the Brashear KNOCKOUT!!!!!!!

  • boogaard got uber pwned

  • Boogard doen't even fight that much anymore, he is a JOKE...just a HUGE guy who USED TO intimidate people, and once people figured out he ain't shit and stood up to him he got tired of getting punched and now he skates single digits every game if he even skates, JUST a gorilla who can skate.....if Darcy Hordichuk can go toe to toe with you giving up 10" and 70 lbs and come out looking good then you shouldn't call yourself an enforcer

  • heyy xXeagleboy37Xx r u dumb old hockey was not as many fites and wen there were it was off of a dirty hit now a days guys just drop em to look tough and back then they actually wanted to play hockey now they just wanna hit and fite

  • thats why he is in the NHL cause he fights but now days the NHL is turning into pussies no hits/ fights just lame goals and saves it would be nice to see more fights and hits cause thats old hockey

  • boogaard truly is useless in the NHL... no talent whatsoever and pretty much out of everybody's weight or height class... i don't know why people give him that much credit when due to his size he should win. belak got him here though. its like putting the rock on a hockey team to go out and skate around picking fights.

  • Every team has an enforcer like that... besides boogaard doesnt even play every game...u should know what your talking about before u say anything. And besides soo wat if he is bigger than most people. should they have a league for people who are over 6-5 no because it is just part of the fucking game...

  • belak wins even tho i hate him

  • how can you hate beeler?

  • i luv him now cuz he knocked out brashear atta boy beller

  • right on browski!!!!

  • I heard Belak knocked out 4 of Boogaards teeth in that fight. Probably when Boogaard went to adjust his helmet. Belak is one tough son of a bitch. He should change his name to Bill Brasky.

  • boogaard is a useless, talentless, piece of shit

  • Belak owned Boogard in this one.

  • Belak pimp slapped Boogaard this fight

  • Wade is still the champ.

  • i like belak and wish his was still in toronto too bad these guys cant play the game of hockey tho

  • I agree...Belak the victor

  • God we miss Belak in Toronto...dumbest move they made to trade him away, and they've made plenty of dumb moves....

  • Comment removed

  • are you kidding, belak CLEARLY won. the whole time boogaard is getting nailed

  • Comment removed

  • Boogy lost.

  • Comment removed

  • i hope the panthers enjoyed having belak for a week? they have a fucked up system and GM

  • Belak won that one for sure.

  • they just fought again tonight

  • wade waive hahahahaha

  • belak is on Waivers now:(

  • I know man. I read that he loves it in FLA and the whole team likes him but our shitty coaching and managing gives him NO playing time each game..

  • Well being a Leafs fan, I was so jellous of you guys cause you got 2 of my favorite leafs in Chad Kilger and Wade Belak lol and dont be mad at Kilger for not playing its not his fdault I heard his wife said she would divorce him if he did, it must have been incredibly tough for him

  • And now i just found out we traded Wade to Nashville for that punk bitch Tarnasky. I fuckin hate the Panthers organization. With all due respect for my team- we have a bunch of pussies and pansies playing for us.

  • same here

    I've been a leafs fan all my life, until they began to suck a few years ago.. but even still i still support them just because toronto is my home =)

    i was soooooooo angry when Belak & Kilger went to FLorida...... our 2 best players for excitement and hits and fights and they're gone sooo unfairly

    and i feel bad for Kilger because of his wife, i hope he gets things together soon and comes back to the leafs

  • Good fight, everybody wins

  • woo belak

  • belak won so go fuck yourself

  • great heavyweight tilt

  • Belak = Killer Check what he did to Janssen

  • boogaard would have knocked his ass out right at the end if belak didnt hide his face like that. Lame fight overall

  • Woooh Belak

  • if i was the linesmen i would be scared 2 break up tht fight

  • fuck that watch the end of the fight. boogard split his lip with a right. belak was just holding on after that

  • belak is the tougthest player in the nhl

  • wade belak won

  • yh go 4 it!!!!!

  • YEAAAAAAA BELAK...! REPREST NUMBER 2

  • Damn Belak who teaching you how to fight Anderson Silva?.... lol

  • that was some good shit

  • BELAK BELAK BELAK BELAK!

  • boogard needs to see a dentist after that one

  • o'brien knock boogaard's teeth out?!?!?!...dude he isnt even in the same league as boogaard he isnt even a heavyweight who has he beat to make u believe that statement....did u see when he fought boogey when he played for annaheim, embarrassing to say the least but is still give him props for trying.....i do like the canucks tho especially rypien and bieksa...mitchell should be ur captain

  • Not too often that the Boogeyman doesn't get the upper hand.

  • We need belak back in Toronto!

  • DiBBZ15 is a little kid that wouldnt know the concept of fighting if he got cracked to the face 3 times. Ive seen and been in fights where the other guy hits you like 20 times but you just wait for the sweet spot to open and drop them with one Punch.

    Number of Hits and whos throwing punches at who doesnt mean shit.

  • thats my boyyyyyyy lets gooooooooooo BELAAKKKKK

  • Oilers' Macintyre will make mince meat out of Boogey man. With Boogaard's bad back and Macmuscle matching Boogey man's size, Mac the knife should keep jerking the sweater of Mr. booger until he shakes the snot out of boog and that should pull his back out for 2 weeks... Go OILERS!

  • DIBBZ15 ur a fuckin tard

    u can win a fight without knocking them down

    some fights a player gets the shit beat out of them but they still dont fall to the ice

    and swerv thjat was the biggest load of shit ive evr seen

    boogs jus finished a shift well so did belak u fuckin dipshit

    i dont know if u were watchin the game evn but that was a fair fight that belak took

    i respect boogaard and it was a damn good fight

  • Belak is the best fighter in the league

    go ahed and tell me different

    name one person he couldnt put up a fight with

    BELAK UR A FUCKIN BEAST

  • Laraque.

    done.

     :D

  • Watch the Belak vs. Laraque fight from last season. DRAW bud.

  • just because boogaard is 6'7" and belak is shorter and got a couple good punches in, doesnt mean he won the fight. when u win a fight either u knock him out or don't get punched at all and ur the one throwing the punches

  • Belak schooled Boogaard in a cerebral fight.

  • Belak was fresh off the bench, Boogey had been on ice for over a minute before the fight started. no one can stand up to Boogey when he's fresh.

  • This will be Boogaard's last season in the NHL. Outside of hurting smaller players he serves no purpose. I hope he costs James Sheppard his knees when someone retaliates against that idiot Lemaire.

    Nothing would make me happier then seeing a young player from Minnesota get hit dirty and never play again. Maybe then the bonehead redneck fans in Minnesota will realize moron thugs like Boogaard don't belong in the game.

  • Word.

    Can't wait for the Canucks to play the Wild so O'Brien can knock the rest of Booger's teeth out.

  • lol theyve alrdy fought and O'brien thought hed be better off falling down on purpose until the linsemen came to save him.

  • You're complaining about Boogaard hurting "smaller" players, but want someone to put a dirty hit on a young Minnesota player to end his career? You are a complete idiot and make a terrible argument. Boogey Man will fight anyone in the NHL and he's not going anywhere.

  • No, assholes like Sean Avery and Cluade Lemiuex have no place in hockey. Bogey's just keeping other teams goons away.

  • Keep making excuses pal.  Belak knocked out 4 of Boogey's teeth. LOL

  • Belak won that fight hands down!

  • boog's just finished a shift so this wasn't a fresh gunslinger. i say a draw ,if you look at the end boog's could have crushed the albino's face,but being the gentleman he is...

  • belak wo

  • Well Belak had to make his name in Florida. I mean they were expecting Mats so when they got this kid, they (the Panthers) were like "What does he do?", does he score a lot (He can, just ask him, he chooses not to!)? Nope, he just beats up one of the scariest guys in the game!

  • lol shutup

  • Boogard got smashed.

  • what fight did you watch? it was a draw and boogard was at the end of a shift. belaks a decent fighter but a punk move instead of catching him at the end of a shift.

  • lol boogaard is such a joke, how is he even in the nhl. he has 8 points in 150 games LMAO

  • yea and ur point he is not the type of player who scores he is the type of player that everyone wants a peice of

  • yeah but there's plenty of players who can fight but still have some skill, perfect example would be jarome iginla, even rick rypien on the canucks. boogaard has no hockey skill and the only reason he doesn't get shitkicked is cause he's so big, he's not really that good a fighter considering how big a size and reach advantage he usually has.

  • Damn, I miss Wade.

    That's ok, we've got a real killer now in Hollweg. Err, maybe not.

    Damn.

  • Belak won the fight, Minny won the game. Still though, winning against Boogie is quite an achievement and Belak will command a lot of respect in that locker room because of this.

  • Boogoon lost that one!

  • Godard kicked boogaards ass twice already

  • well godard is a faggot though! hmmmm aybe one a fight but we will see this season

  • try godard beat boogaard once three years ago and lost the last 3 haha

  • anyone that gets the best of my man boogey! deserves respect at least to me........but don't get to cocky panthers we kicked your ass with 3 of our best players messing....lol got beat by newbies.....but oh well wanna see a rematch!

  • where did that come from.

  • BELAK IS A BEAST>.... havent seen many guys give boogy a run for his money.... GOOD JOB WADE!!!!

  • oh, and a clear example where

    "watch in high quality" is worthwhile

    option placed under time clock/volume control

  • belak made great use of his left here

    early on, the "jersey jab", with a firm grip on boogaard's collar,

    kept the long reach advantage from becoming a factor for derek

    later, with the left arm free of restraint, belak scores often with a left uppper cut

    not enough to knock anyone out, but some of those landed flush on boogaard's face

    belak gets my decision ,

    with bonus points for this scrap being a clear case of standing up for a team-mate

  • VERY GOOD FAIR FIGHT!!! (wild fan) give the edge to belak, but in the end they were both tired so it looks like they booth did damage

  • i smell a round 2 comin on sometime in the future...

  • Belak on points!!

  • Belak wins, but pretty even

  • great for belak,the leaf team today sucks with a bunch of softies.

  • wow, i'd actually give that one to belak

  • Why the hell did Toronto get rid of Belak? If the Leafs are going to suck we could have at least watched him fight like this.  Trade one of our many Dmen for a bonafide enforcer...for entertainment value. I'm not sure who is availalbe? Anyone have suggestions?

  • i dono but i do know that the leafs suck nuts til their dry. why would u guys pay money, wether to be at a game or watch on PPV, or even watch em on FREE tv. watching the leafs play is a waste of three hours that you'll never get back

  • Sometimes the other team puts on a good show. lol.

  • lol very true

  • boogeyman lost a tooth in this fight

  • Was this at the end of a shift? It seemed like they were already tired before they started fighting.

  • Looked like the end of the shift to me! Imagine what this would have been like at the start? Wow!

  • yea boogy was goin off and i tink belak was comming on.

  • Good fight

  • belak won that fight

  • omg belak is a bitch. thats what us in detroit call the "standing turtle." he cant fight like a man

  • Nice fight!!

  • Great fight!! ^5*

  • Good fight! Belak certainly impressed me in that one.

  • Belak will be a Leaf in my heart forever!

  • when is boogard not having problems fighting? horrid balance, just because he knocked out two smaller guys years ago doesnt mean hes the shit, Belak is fucking awesome

  • boogaard doesnt have problems fighting at all. and in his last 3 seasons hes kod 9 or 10... not 2

  • KO- Knock Out

    when i see a guy pass out after his punch like we saw fedoruk, and that other guy who was also a duck or mcgrattan

    then lets talk more. He cant even handle parros, laraque or brashear

  • fedoruk, mcgrattan, gillies, brookbank, brennan, vandemeer, etc...

  • oh man thaat was one of the best fight ive seen so far this season in regards to the exchange of punches. booggards got about 7 inches on belak but nonetheless two heayweights..not a good scrap, a GREAT scrap

  • 2 inches

  • lol yah i was just exaggerating cuz he looks so much bigger..i live in vancouver and played hockey all my life and believe it or not, its realllly easy to beat a bigger guy when your on skates becuz of the way u can expose them for a chance to throw some blows..off the the ice, in shoes, belak woulda got fucked up..oh yah dwild minnesota is my favorite american team, division rivals of mine or not, minnesota is 31 hockey state in USA. Much respect bro

  • No repect for you!

    Im from Vancity.. and cheering for the wild is punishable by death!

  • Yeahh Belak! I can't wait to see Wade kick some ass for us all season long.

  • Too bad your team blows.

  • They can't even beat a team with 4 of their top 5 players out, and still lose by 4 goals. Sad actually.

  • I'm talking about fighting, obv not scoring goals. Too bad Boogaard can't even take a punch. He's powerful but very slow when it comes to fighting.

  • good fight. boogy was headin off the ice when belak came on. winner could go either way. also boogy got his first point in 50 games!!! haha. GO WILD!!!

  • ha nice Steve
