In between the blue line and the center ice line, by the penalty box, the gloves come off easy. They're each throwing heavy rights. After a couple, Erskine lands a nice one, but Burnett's helmet is still on. Erskine throws a couple more, Burnett's balance seems to be off from the get-go. While throwing Burnett is slipping and pulls Erskine down with him.

Right out of the box they meet up and drop the gloves, looked like Erskine was stretching as they were circling. They come together and grab on. They hold each other off with their right hands and throw over each other with nothing but bombs. Johnson gets the first couple, one real good one, and Erskine responds with a couple overhand rights that Johnson ducks under. Johnson then grabs Erskine's leg and tries to hit him while Erskine is off-balance, but Erskine dosn't fall and nails Johnson's forehead with a couple of overhand rights. They fall and Johnson throws some lefts at the end.

They drop the gloves quicly and get right down to business with no attempt to remove the buckets, both throwing punches with mean intentions. They each connect with a couple of glancing rights, with the better shots being landed by Erskine which causes Marshall to go a little off balance. Erskine uses his height to take advantage of this situation and unloads with a bomb with his right hand sending Marshall down.

Marshall comes back for revenge against Erskine who is more than willing to oblige, but the linesmen decide they don't want to see this matchup. Once again there is no attempt to get helmets off, just both guys throwing big time rights. Only this time the linesman is the one on the receiving end and he takes a huge shot from Erskine.

They come together to the side of the net get in a clinch. Low's trying to throw a punch, nothing going on and Erskine throws two big rights, one looked to land. Low then gets the takedown. After Low got the takedown it looked like Erskine threw a couple more punches at Low that may have landed.
