Everyone is talking about a huge Sabres brawl. Many fans say it was the wildest game they ever saw! Here's how it happened Thursday night at HSBC Arena against the Ottawa Senators. It all started in the second period, when Buffalo Sabres captain Chris Drury got injured after taking a brutal hit by Senators forward Chris Neil.

I grew up watching the Flyers and the Broad Street bullies. Dave Schultz was the greatest.

Before the pacified hockey to appeal to the south west away from the very physical and brutal way it used to be played this brawl would have been a quick blurb on the news..

It's a slideshow of stills with a voiceover, but it's the only thing I could find:

Oh they scared me at first. I thought they meant United States Senators. Ha ha.

[Zeroisanumber]

Oh. I was hoping that it was actual Senators with sabers in a wild brawl. I'd watch the CSPAN replay of that.

What do you expect with the hip/hop thug culture that's taken over hockey? /sarc

[Rakkasan1]

thank you.thankuverymuch

[Rakkasan1]

all those senators do are bloviate and obfuscate.

[StoneWall Brigade]

Wow

[Rakkasan1]

419 minutes in penalty minutes is the record.
this was only 100 minutes in penalties.still the best brawl I've seen in 15 years.
Gary Bettman will probably cry and call the UN.

Old-time hockey, Eddie Shore-style! Wow, that was a great game and really shows the kind of passion that is in the NHL.

Thanks man - it was heartwarming. It looked like Peters hit a ref when he was trying to hit Emery. Anyway, it was a joy to behold. A good time had by all.

Classic fight from the 70's was Dave Shultz punching out Pat Quinn from the Flames and Shultz thinking he had killed Quinn with one punch.....it was a scary fight to see.
