Draw...no one landed anything...Asham threw more punches but hit nothing but shoulder pads...Reitz didn't even throw a punch....5 each for dancing...

Posted by bruiseyoureye on January 09, 2009 at 12:21 AM

that awful ....i dont think one punch landed in this lame fight.........that was a disgrace to the word "hockeyfight"

Slight edge asham

Posted by Gunslinger on January 09, 2009 at 05:31 AM

Tempted to give the edge to Asham but it did'nt look like anyone did any real damage so I'll call it a draw.

Posted by MNBonecrusher on January 09, 2009 at 06:18 AM

Posted by Bildo on January 09, 2009 at 01:17 PM

Draw.

Posted by tattooedkingpin on January 09, 2009 at 10:14 AM

Asham had the better fight, but im gonna give it a draw.

Posted by TheAsianator on January 08, 2009 at 10:26 PM

Not a whole lot landed. Asham was the more aggressor but no of his punches seemed to be connected. Draw

Posted by Heavyweight2 on January 08, 2009 at 10:30 PM

Not sure if much landed

Posted by FightNight7 on January 08, 2009 at 10:37 PM

OK fight draw

Posted by penman1188 on January 09, 2009 at 11:39 AM

asham was just swinging really fast, hard to tell how many connected.. i really am not a big fan of watching reitz fight.. he isnt anything special to watch.. i said draw, with a slight edge to asham

Posted by ghjkfdhgfd on January 08, 2009 at 10:36 PM

draw

Posted by kayserrox33 on January 19, 2009 at 10:23 AM

??????????

Posted by EDDUBBS on January 08, 2009 at 10:34 PM

Asham is a tough guy and bested Reitz. If there is a round 2 Asham should bury him!

Posted by BSTnougat on January 08, 2009 at 10:28 PM

Arron's my boy but it didnt look like anything really landed...draw.

Posted by followthecode on January 08, 2009 at 11:34 PM

First throw by Asham definitely lands, not so sure about anything else after that. Narrow win for Asham

Posted by MajorGroove on January 08, 2009 at 10:25 PM

Narrow win for Asham. Not much connected and it was short, give it a 4.

Posted by Chivas Regal on January 09, 2009 at 04:41 AM

Asham with the win only because he was actually fighting.

Posted by nstars27 on January 09, 2009 at 04:09 PM

Too bad Gratton pussied out with Scott i would love too see if Scott can go or not. Stop I know Josh was trying to sucker him into a penalty, but he go 2 anyway, so he pussied out. Asham with a win in a boring fight

Posted by mckendo83 on January 09, 2009 at 08:33 AM

Saw it live, different angle on the big screen also - asham landed one win asham

Posted by smasham on January 09, 2009 at 06:20 PM

Asham with the win

Posted by farmer365 on January 09, 2009 at 10:37 AM

Why would Reitz even drop the gloves if he's just gonna tie up and go for a takedown,,that's poor,, drop em and chuck em or tie the gloves to your hands.

Posted by mikebflorida on January 09, 2009 at 03:21 PM

Looked like Ash landed the only punches, I'll give him the W.

Posted by Juha82 on January 09, 2009 at 05:11 AM

ASham with the EDGe

Posted by SirYohans on January 08, 2009 at 10:34 PM

Asham appeared to be the only one who might have landed anything. OK fight. Win Asham.

Posted by oilersfansylvan on January 08, 2009 at 10:37 PM

Fast Furious and a Flop.......had that look of a good one but I dunno not much happened, Arron for the W on intent

Posted by KevMack on January 09, 2009 at 03:52 AM

More thrown, more landed. Easy decision. Asham. Manitoba wins again.

Posted by BuffSabs76 on January 09, 2009 at 10:28 PM

Asham, Cote, and Gratton... not many teams that can match this type of power... as for the fight, win Asham

Posted by blackgoldfan on January 09, 2009 at 11:51 AM

asham with a slight edge. enuff for a w even though not much connected.

Posted by IrishFiveO on January 09, 2009 at 08:22 AM

As always, Double A.

Posted by flyerfighter73 on January 09, 2009 at 06:31 PM

Decent fight. Asham wins a close one. Asham is good middleweight and maybe one of the better ones in the league

Posted by mcb789 on January 08, 2009 at 10:16 PM

asham with the win in this bout.

Posted by acd1 on January 12, 2009 at 08:21 PM

Decent scrap. Props to Erik for dropping the visor. Slight edge to AA.

Posted by leafhater on February 06, 2009 at 03:56 PM

Slight edge Asham.

Posted by DARCY T on March 26, 2009 at 06:44 AM

reitz was on defending side.win arron

Posted by RykerHC on January 13, 2009 at 03:53 AM

Asham with the slightest of edges, he landed one at the beginning of the fight, but after that the fight was pretty even.

Posted by chl37 on January 09, 2009 at 07:39 AM

slight edge to asham. this is the way a fight outta be, drop the lids and gloves before throwing fists. please take note visor fighters in the league and you know who you are.

Posted by BooSanta on January 10, 2009 at 07:29 PM

AA is about the best middleweight out there and has a great stance before throwing them. He lands all but one of the few landers in this one. Take down by Reitz is not enough in the end to salvage the fight for him. AA gets the job done again.

Posted by b.t.wilson on January 09, 2009 at 12:12 PM

Close fight, not a ton landing, but Asham with the slight edge.

Posted by smwarpig63 on January 08, 2009 at 10:19 PM

Slight edge to asham

Posted by rusheetinme on January 09, 2009 at 09:45 PM

Give Ash credit he hasnt been to healthy lately and he still will go at it. He has had some of the better fights for the flyers suprisingly. He win this one just for being the aggressor.

Posted by holydrums on January 09, 2009 at 10:46 AM

Asham actually lands 1 or 2. Pretty close. Slight edge Asham

Posted by Riley32 on January 09, 2009 at 11:00 PM

asham never goes half way

Posted by bruins rule on January 08, 2009 at 10:01 PM

have to give asham the win in this fight.

Posted by Belak_Norris on January 09, 2009 at 12:02 PM

Asham more active and might have landed more, edge to Asham!

Posted by jbaktai on January 08, 2009 at 10:58 PM

Asham with the win, reitz couldnt get anything together really most of his punches missed. I originally saw this fight on hightlights, and the person says we;re gonna give this win to Reitz cause of the takedown. I dont think some of these people on t.v know what they're talking about when it comes to hockey fights lol.

Posted by hmpsn_j on January 09, 2009 at 01:17 PM

good fight asham won, wish they would have let them fight earlier, but they fought as soon as those unsportsmanlike penalties were over anyway. Also, disappointed that Gratton didnt fight earlier in the game

Posted by 24kokanee on January 08, 2009 at 10:47 PM

clear win again for Asham, Reitz didn't even throw a punch, he just hung on the whole fight.

Posted by boogaardfan_24 on January 09, 2009 at 02:12 AM

id give reitz the win, he got the best punch in right away. if u didnt notice he pops asham right in the forehead right away and makes his head bounce back

Posted by Shredder1976 on January 09, 2009 at 07:51 AM

Asham!

Posted by allienmort on January 09, 2009 at 04:29 PM

Slight edge to Reitz. Okay fight. On a different matter, what's the deal with Gratton?? Looks like he wet himself and had to turn away from a surefire buttwhoopin!!

Posted by Dampland on January 09, 2009 at 11:51 PM

Close one, with Reitz getting the decision

Posted by wildguy12 on January 09, 2009 at 02:08 PM

eh! Draw.

Posted by Jwcolour on January 08, 2009 at 10:50 PM

Clear draw... im not giving much in the way of points for merely being aggressive if he didn't land a single punch.

Posted by chad420 on January 10, 2009 at 08:19 PM

edge AA

Posted by azjim on January 09, 2009 at 05:22 AM

Asham landed at least one, so he gets the win.

Posted by perezj on January 09, 2009 at 10:14 PM

Asham get the win. One of the all time best middleweights in the NHL.

Posted by pvdrummer2000 on March 10, 2015 at 12:31 AM

Asham pummeled Reitz

Posted by cdnputter on January 10, 2009 at 09:27 AM

Asham with more connecting shots, Reitz did a decent job of covering up and gave a few in return, slight advantage to Asham.

Posted by tim daddy on January 09, 2009 at 02:08 PM

asham with the win , but props to these two for honering the code by dropping the helmets(should be a rule) and not trying to cheap-shot each other with a sneak attack

Posted by loganh222 on January 09, 2009 at 07:35 PM

rietz with win
