Brayden Schenn, T.J. Oshie launch Game 5 with fisticuffs
Sportsnet
The Philadelphia Flyers will not go down without a fight.
Literally.
Shortly after the opening faceoff in Friday's Game 5, Flyers forward Brayden Schenn and T.J. Oshie of the Washington Capitals - two unlikely combatants - dropped the gloves and engaged in attempts at face punching.
The tilt was likely a spillover from Game 4, when Schenn caught Evgeny Kuznetsov with a vicious slash to the back of the legs.
