Begin throws a hard hit on a Wing, and Darren decides to do a little enforcin'. He skates over to him and the gloves come off. Nice square off, with McCarty doing his old stance that hasn't been seen in quite a long time. They come together, with McCarty grabbing on with his right and Begin with his left. They go toe to toe with Begin clearly getting the advantage and landing 2 good solid shots to the face, and one hard blow striking Mac's helmet. McCarty's punches looked to be off the mark during this initial flurry. Now they get a good hold of each other, and McCarty switches hands and lands a right, followed by a body shot. They grapple a little more and Darren surprises Begin with a solid right uppercut to his chin. Both then fire simultaneous lefts, with both connecting. Only difference is Begin ends up on the ice.
