Huge AHL brawl erupts between Devils, Islanders affiliates

The rivalry between the New Jersey Devils and New York Islanders clearly extends to the AHL.

Tempers flared between the Albany Devils and Bridgeport Sound Tigers on Saturday, as the affiliates engaged in a massive brawl late in the second period.

When the dust settled, the clubs had more than 200 combined penalty minutes, while multiple players and coaches were ejected.

The melee left the benches a little thin.

Saturday's game was Albany's regular-season finale, meaning any potential suspensions would begin in the playoffs, while Bridgeport still has one game remaining - on Sunday afternoon - before their postseason begins.
