An under-18 game from Alberta, Canada has been making headlines after an all-out brawl broke out during the handshake line.

It occurred after a playoff game between the South East Edmonton Recreation Association and Stony Plain Minor Hockey Predators on Sunday at the Terwillegar Recreation Centre in Edmonton. Tempers flared during the handshake line after Stony Plain won 4-3 in a thrilling shootout.

Check it out below:

Fighting isn't as big of a part of the game as it used to be but don't expect it to just disappear anytime soon. It's only sad when young kids are the one involved like in this situation.

The footage and details of the incident was shared by Karen Bartko of Global News, and how the league (Edmonton Federal Hockey League) and Alberta Hockey will be investigating the incident:

''The organization said the behaviour would not be tolerated in the league. It also stated it worked with Hockey Alberta to review the game and ensure all players who participated in the situation were sanctioned appropriately.�'
