VIDEO: Maple Leafs' Kessel, Booth mix it up at practice

After an otherwise anonymous morning skate before another loss Thursday, the Toronto Maple Leafs' full complement of skaters were back at practice Friday prepared to keep the storylines churning.

Phil Kessel and David Booth were invovled in an on-ice dust-up during a power-play drill, and while no punches were apparently thrown, the spirited altercation required mediation from teammates.

Their discontent may be similar, but the source of their frustration is likely far different.

Kessel has recorded a minus rating 11 times and has just a single goal over his last 14 games. While Booth, who was one of the few veterans present for Thursday's optional skate, has arguably been the best Maple Leaf over the past month.
