Kevin Hoffman / USA TODAY Sports
Call it showing some early emotion or an attempt to rouse the troops, as Boston Bruins' Milan Lucic and Buffalo Sabres' Chris Stewart squared off in a good old fashioned hockey fight on Thursday - and a fairly even one at that.
The fight occurred less than a minute into the game, and marked the first time both players dropped the gloves this season.
Don't count on it being the last.
