And some people had hockey sticks.”

I love fights in hockey- but I don’t see that as a proper fight. That almost seemed like an attack. On a different note, resisting the urge to bust out “I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out” really isn’t easy.

All the following penalties look like non-disciplinary, just usual things.

Actually, I haven’t heard anything about him recently.

But the KHL version of him is a jerk.

The last time they met up even, most of the Avangard players didn’t want to fight- notably Jaromir Jagr stayed out of it, unlike previous times- and it still continued.

They should ban the team. It’s not a good “rival” if all you do is fight, and fight dirty at that. Every time it’s the same thing, they didn’t even give Avangard a chance to reject the fight or anything- they just attacked right off the face-off.

I hope this gets dealt with properly. It gives a bad name to the KHL if this is all most people hear about. Also, I’m glad Chelios didn’t sign with them, but hope he can find another team (how cool would that be?)

Were there any fights/cheap shots/retaliation hits throughout the game?
