2nd Period - 13:30•2001-2002 Regular Season

This is Shelley's sixth fight in four games. Off the faceoff, looong square off as both guys are cocked and loaded. They're circling. Sandy feints in then out. More stalking. War and Peace VOL 2 has been inked during the square off... Sandy is getting antsy and finally dives in. Hugging in close. Pulling, tugging. McCarthy appears to land a short right to Shelley's helmet. Shelley thinks about a right but can't get it going. Repeat last sentence. And again; he's locked out. Mac comes up short with a right. Shelley fires two rights missing on the first but the second slams heavily into McCarthy's helmet. A McCarthy right at the same time just misses. McCarthy lands a right to Shelley's jaw! Shelley is stunned and drifting out of position. Another McCarthy right lands to Jody's back. Sandy smells blood and fires off three left almost-uppercuts. Hard to tell about the first due to camera angle but the second one is on target and the third misses. Shelley's in trouble. A Mac right has nothing on it. They clinch. McCarthy gets off three successive short right all to Shelley's head. Jody is all tied up and eats another McCarthy right. Sandy continues to hit and miss short rights. Shelley's right is paralyzed. Sandy lands a forearm to the head. A McCarthy right lands to the face, another misses, he misses with an uppercut and a jab. Shelley gets off a right that misses. Sandy brushes one across Shelley's nose. Both men land rights in stereo then miss at the same time. McCarthy rocks him with a straight right to the face! They're both latched on and locked out at arms length now. Here come the linesmen. It's all over. Jody is slightly bloodied.
