Chara played literally 2 minutes of straight hockey, including on the penalty kill, then still dropped the gloves and had a pretty good even tilt with a 6'7 Oleksiak. What incredible shape he's in damn

Win or lose if you fight chara you got balls

Hockey is the only sport where two players can stop play just to fight, and have it be a highlight. Love this damn sport.

Great sportsmanship when players both agree on when enough is enough I always like those fights

Respect to anyone that dances with that big boy Chara

As much as I hate the bruins I really like Chara. He's tries not to go after people much smaller than him and any time he does fight he never goes any harder than he has to. I respect him a lot for that. He knows he can really hurt people so he tries not to

Chara was like "fuck i need a good 5 minutes of rest after that penalty kill *sees Oleksiak*... 💡"

Wow chara was on the ice a long time before the fight even started

Mad respect for Chara. End of a long shift, and still handled him

Not his most devastating fight, but probably his most impressive, considering his age, the size of his opponent, and the fact that it was at the end of a very long shift. Great stamina to pull this off!

I can't believe Zdeno is still so fit and with so much energy, but give credit where credit is due he is. I remember when he first came into the league and how exciting it was for him, but overwhelming. He's gotten better with age and than can happen. Anything is possible. I think McAvoy is already a strong candidate for MVP.

Honestly, I don´t like hockey fights... If I want to see fights, I watch kickox, thaibox or MMA. But I am really pleased how fair you are as hockey fans. One half of you are not Bruins fans, but everyone respect Chara in his fight (and his age) after such long time on the ice during opponents power play. Well done, mates! Hello from Slovakia, homeland of Big Z :-)

I remember watching this live thinking "how can he even throw a punch after that long-ass PK"?

I have waited for This for so lonh

Wow, Chara cross-checks Holmqvist so hard he lands 5 feet away, and the ref, while staring at him calls no penalty.

I miss these kinds of fights. Today's game is nothing like it was when I first started watching Hockey as a kid. Guys like Probert, Mcsorley, Brashear,,Hunter, Manson, Tie Domi, Stu the Grim Reaper Grimson, Derek Boogeyman Boogaard "God bless his soul" etc. Kane got some good hands, but Chara is a giant. Mad respect for instigating and throwing punches while he wasn't looking. Then Chara gets up and Kane was holding on for his life, lol

Despite a long shift, Chara still dropped the gloves

Even though Chara plays a physical game and walks the line of dirty and and not dirty play, whenever he fights he gives respects to the guy after. Watch at 2:38 where he’s about to punch, but he lets up and gives the guy a tap on the back and likely said “good fight” or “good job” to him in his ear. That’s a true hockey player right there and good sportsmanship. Play hard, don’t cross the line, and give your opponents a good pat on the back or good job when y’all duke it out or get into a scrum

Jesus those are some big men

Chara was literally out there for an entire penalty kill and then a little after that and he still fought.

and then. finally he gets tired jesus h christ he is a monster even for his age.

What a sequence!

Chara was at the end of a very long shift, so major props to him for fighting a rugged customer like Oleksiak. Granted, Chara himself is a monster.

Whoaaaa! D:

I was at this game, unreal that it was 4 years ago. LFG B’s baby.

I think chara won comfortably on points. Credit to Oleksiak for taking him on, but he just couldn't connect very hard because Chara was using his reach advantage well

it was may be the turning point of the game 👊👊 one of the greatest hockey game like EVER ???!!👏👏

Love the big man

wow at the end of a long pk shift and still wins the fight vs a heavyweight. respect.

The only thing scarier then an angry Chara is an 'enraged' Evgeni Malkin with two linesmen conveniently holding him back.

Dobra bitka👍👍

Miss him in dallas

Holy homer commentary, Batman!

those are some big boys scrappin there lol

I was at this game it was pure electric

I don’t like the idea of Chara on the PK but that was masterful, he knew exactly how and when to give those net clearing whacks and shoves

I was there that night. I took a video of this fight from my seat (about 15 rows from the corner they were fighting in), it was so loud in that building I couldn't hear my brother sitting next to me during the fight.

I saw that on tv it was awesome! Chara my favorite player😁

Not a Bruins fan but you have to respect what Chara is about. After a mega shift shows Oleksiak he will not be de-throned. Still the man!!!!.

I’m a hardcore Stars fan and it was hard to see Oleksiak go. This, though, is something I’ve been waiting for. Big Rig vs Chara.

after a lengthy shift...chara's still got it

Wooowww what a shift!

Chara is such a true hockey player, tough, but very responsible, he will never sucker any guy, never throw punches unless your ready, total respect for that guy. Great player as well. HOF player

Chara with a 2-3 minute shift...on the P.K. and a fight at the end! Nice...in great shape.

Welcome to Seattle!

Sid had to go to his time out room, it was so violent out there. The tears well up and he goes to his safe space. Thank goodness.

A couple of big boys going at it.

kto zo Slovenska? xD

that's a top notch captain..plays a high level exhausted PK and then drops the gloves

What a great game this is. Entertaining games and as a bonus you get fights. Cant beat it.

Loved McAvoy standing up for himself against Hornqvist. Is there anything McAvoy does bad? Personally, i don’t think so

Dallas WTF are you doing this is exactly why I liked Oleksiak, to be the big man we don't have.

2:10 "YEA"

First time seeing a balance fight with Chara

"Crosby whining to the pittsburgh bench" :D love it

He was lucky Chara was tired from being on the ice for an eternity.

Good for Oleksiak. Fighting Chara is frightening - even after a 2 minute shift. Chara is a monster.

That was the end of Chara's shift too and he still won while Oleksiak just got on. Lol, imagine if Chara just got on too, Oleksiak would have gotten it way worse.

we all wanted to see this

I'm a Leafs fan and love Jack Edwards. He makes the game more exciting, plus his one-liners are pretty funny.

Biggest fight size wise I’ve ever seen

Hell of a shift.

1:57 "It looked like pond hockey there for a second". worst commentator of all time

Why you didn’t upload the whole game

Chara is a savage

A giant fight

im from pgh and love Chara tbh. but that announcer was clearly cheering him up. even when oleksiak smoked 3 shots he said "chara is ripping his head off" equal fight

Chara is like " fuck this I'm too old for this shit"

Was in necessary to show 3 shifts prior to the fight?

Chara 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

Can someone explain the 'fight' aspect of ice hockey?

I'm more surprised nobody made a "Clash of the Titans" quip, considering the combined height of both combatants.

Wow Chara did not fall down this time.

I like how they edited the Tale of the tape lol

The Only player you want to see hurt more than Chara in the rat. Maybe hurt in the same game!

jesus, after a PK shift as well.

Imagine your're 6'7" and the guy you're fighting is bigger than you? That's wild.

I would enjoy a fight of Chara vs Jack Edwards.

Zdeno Chara is a beast from Slovakia

Wouldn't have happened if the kept Ryan Reaves 😠

Boston commentators are the worst.

Chara's like "Alright, you've had enough."

Amazing how they can turn off the rage button so fast

Fight?

Every time I hear him speak, I hope that Jack Edwards bear hugs a field of cacti one by one.

Oleksiak GOOD JOB!!!

Charas my favorite player

Two gentle giants go at it

Welcome to the Kraken, Oleksiak.

don't mess with Z

as always Jack Edwards overstates everything.....what a chump!

Charas,just a Big Tradaeu !! Ballerina.

“Wants to tear his head off” Goes in for a hug

Yeah, Oleksiak is ready to fight Chara....but only after Chara's been on the ice for at least two minutes including a penalty kill. It was the 2nd period so Chara couldn't get off the ice after the Penguin power play.

I mean every team has announcers who can be homers, but Boston's really takes-the-cake

Good scrap between those two especially Jamie

Почему чару не удалили до драки?

How do you beat i guy that tall with 2 metre arms?????

Has chara lost weight, I thought he used to be 270??

My dog Gordie made an exact replica of Chara in the backyard. A remarkable resemblance.
