This. Great fight as fights between non-scrappers go. Pretty even but I'd say Subban won, simply because he landed more punches from what I saw. It was close though.
Oh come on. Take the homer glasses off. Nobody in the thread is saying Lupul is a bad fighter or bashing him, give Subban a break. Watch the video. If anything, as they both began to take their helmets off, they skated towards each other. The reaction of both was to stop what they were doing and throw a punch, Subban just happened to get his towards Lupul first. Give it a rest.
Not a bad fight actually.
EDIT: CBC Feed.
Subban doesn't fight: What a *****
Subban fights: Fight somebody tougher you *****
Subban pulls an Avery and tries to jump the guy when he is taking his shield off and still can't land a punch let alone win the fight.
Subban will get nothing.
The hate on HF is ridiculous.
They care about him more than his own team. Lupul got his ass handed. End of story.

No, he didn't. Maybe you should watch a few more hockey fights to know when to apply such a phrase.
Subban tried to get a little grab in while they were on the iceI'm not even quite sure how you get your "ass handed"... Sounds dirty.
not even close. lupul dropped the gloves first and skated right at subban. to compare him to avery is plain ignorance and foolish on your part.

You saw wrong...the youtube will prove it once it's up.
Not trying to make a big deal out of it because it was a good scrap. But Lupul got jumped when he was in the process of unsnapping.
Looked like Subban hit him when Lupul was in the process of taking his helmet off.
I watched Boston-MTL game and PIT-ISL game and people are actually worrying about a bit of timing taking their helmet off?!!?
Boston players were jumping all MTL players and hitting them while they were down. That, we should be worried about.
