Last night's game between the Boston Bruins and Florida Panthers got pretty intense during the second period, especially when Hampus Lindholm and Sam Bennett got into it.
After a whistle, things heated up between Lindholm and Bennett, with Bennett knocking Lindholm's helmet off. Lindholm didn't take it lightly and threw a sucker punch at Bennett, sparking a full-on scuffle.
Bennett retaliated with some solid punches, and the two ended up in the penalty box with major fighting penalties. It was Lindholm's first major fighting penalty in the NHL.
