First fight

Ivanans and Milan Lucic just got the game's first fight out of the way. A few quick jabs but no real blows landed.

Michal Handzus spent the last shift playing with Scott Thornton and Ivanans. If he falls down the depth chart any more, he will be trading places with Jim Fox or Daryl Evans.

Kings are outshooting the Bruins 8-4 with six minutes left in the period. The play has tilted a bit toward the Kings' favor for much of the period. Each team has failed on one power play.

One pretty solid blow by Ivanans I would say.
