With less than two minutes remaining in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals with the Bruins up 4-0 Tim Thomas showed Alex Burrows that he will not allow anyone to take liberties in his crease. Alex Burrows chopped the goal stick of Thomas out of his hands, Thomas retrieved the stick and proceeded to chop the knee of Burrows. Burrows spun around and started throwing punches at Thomas, but there was no backing down as Thomas started throwing right back.
In the last two games Tim Thomas has thrown a hit on Henrik Sedin and thrown punches with Alex Burrows. At some point the Canucks are going to learn that Tim Thomas is going to defend his crease by any means necessary.
