Tempers flare between Ducks-Kings; Goaltenders get involved (VIDEO)

Things got wild on West Coast when the Anaheim Ducks hosted their rival Los Angeles Kings at the Honda Center.

With goaltenders John Gibson, and more specifically, Phoenix Copley at the forefront of all the action. During a scrum in front of the net, Ducks forward Frank Vatrano slipped in a gloved-punch to Copley's mask which started the chaos.

The Kings goaltender even landed some blocker punched in retaliation before things really got out of hand. See below:

This led to Gibson skating to centre ice, but before the goalies could square off, the referees (controversially) jumped in to stop it.
