In what was somewhat of a surprising finish, the New York Rangers defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning 6-2 in game one of the Eastern Conference Finals.
With the game out of reach, things got a little heated between the two teams. The main combatants weren't a surprise though, as Patrick Maroon and Ryan Reaves exchanged some pleasantries.
One unlucky linesman got caught in the crossfire though:
Poor guy was just trying to break it up and ended up taking the worst out of anybody. Maroon and Reaves aren't small guys.
He'll probably just let them just go at it next time!
