Mikhail Sergachev, everyone’s favorite brawler on the Tampa Bay Lightning, showed his fighting skills tonight in a game versus the Montreal Canadiens.
At the closing of the second period, Canadiens’ captain Shea Weber threw gloves down in a match against Lightning defenseman Mikhail Sergachev.
Punches were being thrown from both parties until Weber missed his target and fell to the ground, ultimately giving Sergachev the clear advantage. A few more hits were tossed in before the fight was broken up, in order to prevent any serious injuries from occurring.
That is where the story should’ve have ended, right? Nope.
Skating off the ice, Sergachev continued to make comments at Weber, yelling “What are you doing?” to the player.
Continuing the lively moment, Lightning players Brayden Point, Anthony Cirelli, and Alex Killorn all chuckled at the situation, engaging in Sergachev’s rage- as expected by a group of hockey players.
In addition to the blood stain now on the back of Shea Weber’s jersey, this fight resulted in fans getting riled up. Excitement spiked, adrenaline lingered at high peaks, and energy levels soared through the roof; emotion like no other than in the game of hockey.
