It is not every day that two players, especially in team sports like basketball or football, get into a fistfight in the middle of the game. But at times in the heat of the moment, some players lose their calm. In such cases, they never get out of the situation without severe consequences. NHL is the only league that allows its players to fight. For any other hockey league, there are consequences for such actions.
Recently, one such incident occurred during a match of ECHL. Two members of opposite teams got into a brawl in the middle of the game. It wasn’t until one player fell to the ground that the fight was knocked off. Soon after the incident, the video went viral on the internet. Said video shows that the fight was one-sided, with one player receiving all the punches.
