Alexander Burmistrov vs John Tavares

The officials needed to be penalized for calling that a fight. JT is pissed he has to play for the Islanders and was hacking away on a player that he outweighs by at least 20 pounds. Burmi got tired of it but again that wasnt a fight

I was at the game. As John was going to the penalty box - he made a kicking motion.....like perhaps he felt like he got slew footed or something? I did not see what triggered the fight from the stands - as I was watching the puck....but just a guess Crap fight - but I was just glad JT did not get hurt. Don't want him fighting.

That was a fight!? Dont you have to throw a punch?

Not much of a fight. Didn't expect a good one from two players that are not fighters. Rated a 2 and a draw.

@The Wrecker Fan - Tavares did get slew footed. Look at the clip at around 0:13 and you'll see that ***** fighting like a true Russian hockey player.

Just for that, I have to give it to JT on principle alone.

crap draw

i always like to see star players to fight.but this one wasnt one to watch

nothing going on here. should have been called roughing.

Next, the announcers will be telling us that Tavares is gonna' be a " force to be reckoned with"........2 minutes each --- holding!

OH PAHLEEEESSSE!!!! DEERAWWWW
