Youtube: Mathieu Olivier vs Dylan McIlrath

The way Wilson was running his mouth yesterday, it should have been him, or Duhaime, stepping up
Duhaime is not that level of fighter.

At around the 40 second mark of that clip, McIlrath got in a short straight right that stopped Olivier from teeing off on him for a while.

Then he ought not bark like a big dog.
Mcillrath is a true throw back goon
 
Both of them would get destroyed by heavyweights from any other era. McIlrath was a paper tiger until all the true heavyweights left the league and it was only a couple years ago that Olivier got smacked around by Lucic.
McIlrath spent most of his time in the AHL. and rightfully so. Not many fighters had much luck against Lucic
At least tge ones he didn't duck

Yeah, he played in the AHL and rarely fought heavyweights. He'd usually lose if he did or just hang on for dear life. Brett Gallant used as much a punching bag on multiple occasions despite giving up 5 inches and 40lbs.

Lucic very rarely ducked anyone and if he did it was because he was actually a good player who was needed on the ice.

I can only remember Lucic "ducking" Laraques, and even then it was because Claude didn't want him to fight because Thornton was more than willing to do it.

Nah, CBJ tough guys hid behind Olivier after the first game of b2b. If this wasnt so close to end of RS and Caps wanting to keep it safe, it would have been a messy game all around. And it worked so, great for Blue Jackets.

Duhaime is def not the guy to go toe-to-toe against Olivier. Wilson would likely lose 9/10 times but he could atleast give him a challenge, but he is also too important for the Caps to risk losing in a goon fight.

Kuraly is the one who should have fought Duhaime or Wilson. After hitting hard and fighting a 6-game rookie in a 7-0 game. Or one of the other tough guys who were running and going after the Rasmus Sandins in a game that was already over.

Aaaand so, nice fight. Olivier is a beauty and the current champion and McIlrath is right behind him on the top3. It doesnt get more heavyweight than this in the ’twenties.
