Connor Clifton drops the gloves after hit on Taylor Hall

Connor Clifton stood up for teammate Taylor Hall after a hit in front of the benches from Peyton Krebs.

Krebs caught Hall with a solid hit in front of the Sabres bench, and with some help from a stranded linesman, the Bruins forward went down to the ice.

Not a malicious hit by any means, but Clifton dropped the gloves with Krebs afterwards. Check it out:

Clifton caught the young forward with some good lefts, and hopefully, it's a spark for a Bruins team that is currently trailing the Sabres 2-1 in the second period.
