hockey fights are civilized

The fight here between 6'3", 243-pound Georges Laraque of Phoenix and 6'4", 263-pound Raitis Ivanans of LA is unexceptional aside from the fact that Laraque is miked up. Here's what he has to say to Ivanans as the two enforcers await the drop of the puck:

"You want to? Okay. We're up? Okay. Good luck man."

Great stuff... and as the announcer says, "He's the heavyweight champion of the league, no question about it." Let the record show, courtesy of HockeyFights.com, that Laraque, the winner here, and stands at 5-0 on the year vs. Ivanans' record of 3-4-1.
