Who woud you say are the top 5 fighters in the Nhl right now?

[Gertner]

I'm a HUGE hockey fight fan and I constantly have this debate with people.

1. Derek Boogaard- His ability to switch hands is amazing. I'd hate to be a guy who tangles with him. Has a knockout over McGratten.

2. Eric Godard- The only guy I've seen man handle Boog's. People tend to put Laraque in this spot, but Laraque throws 2 punches and wrestles the guy.

3. George Laraque- Still has it at his age. His strength is amazing.

4. Brian McGratten- Love his reach. Very tough. Not in the league of Boog's Godard and LAraque though

5. tie Colton Orr/Wade Belak-Belak Scored a victory over Orr, draw with Laraque, win over Parros, Koci. Orr punches extremely hard, beat Belak, Cote, McGratten.

Brahsear IMO has seen better days.

I love NHL "middleweight" fighters. Guys like Brad May who don't necessarily dominate who they fight but will fight anybody no matter how big.

[Gertner]

Riley Cote is currently my fav middleweight fighter. His fight with Shawn Thornton was IMO the fight of the year.

[Stickman]

Ryan Kessler vs Jerome Iginla was balls

[Gertner]

Riley Cote vs pretty much everybody is the balls.

Best punch of the year has to go to Chara vs punching bag David Koci.

[Stickman]

Any time a great player kicks the crap out of somebody I love it. Iginla, Lacavillier, Joe Thorton, Wayne Gretzky :P

[Gertner]

Crosby didn't look too bad against Andrew Ference this year.

[Bad Company]

Since when was Hockey about the fighting?

[weather vane]

Andrew Ference is the biggest pussy in the league though.

[Gertner]

Prior to that fight I think people thought Crosby was.
