After a skirmish for possession near the Bruins' bench, Marchand and Keller locked horns, with Marchand shoving Keller.
When Keller retaliated, Marchand escalated the confrontation, Marchand dropped his gloves and overpowered Keller, sending him sprawling to the ice.
The explosive moment triggered a massive on-ice scrum, adding an extra layer of intensity to an already charged matchup.
Meanwhile, Bruins defender Charlie McAvoy set the tone with a thunderous hit on a Coyotes forward just moments earlier.
