The NHL just doesn’t feel the same without a good old-fashioned brawl, right? Well, Wednesday night at Little Caesars Arena, the Detroit Red Wings weren’t just dropping goals—they were dropping gloves too! Patrick Kane put on an absolute masterclass, racking up two goals and three assists, single-handedly snapping Detroit’s brutal six-game losing streak with a commanding 7-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres.

Meanwhile, Alex DeBrincat was out there doing what he does best, netting his 30th goal while casually matching his career-best three assists. Marco Kasper, Dylan Larkin, and Moritz Seider all jumped into the scoring frenzy, while Petr Mrazek, back in a Red Wings sweater for the first time since 2018, locked it down with 23 saves.

On the flip side, Buffalo was struggling to find their footing, with Tage Thompson and Zach Benson managing to put a dent in the scoreboard, but not enough to stop Detroit Red Wings’ rampage. Now, let’s talk about the real headline of the night—the chaos that erupted on the ice! With tensions boiling over and frustration reaching its peak, the gloves hit the ice, and fists started flying. The refs? Oh, they’d had enough. One even threw in an amusing ‘call’ that had fans cracking up, proving that even they weren’t immune to the madness.

Spittin’ Chiclets couldn’t resist jumping on X mid-game, and honestly, who could blame them? Chaos was brewing, tempers were flaring, and then came the moment that had hockey fans cracking up. The game hit pause, and the ref? Oh, he was done with the nonsense. In a clip that instantly went viral, he casually dropped what might just be the most exhausted, over-it call ever.

The ref declared, “On the play, number 77 for Detroit is going to have a minor for roughing and all the other guys are gonna have a misconduct.” The way he just dumped everyone else under “misconduct” like a fed-up teacher handing out detention slips? Legendary. Safe to say, hockey X had a field day with that one!

And guess what? The Sabres’ bench looked real lonely after nearly all their active players got hit with 10-minute misconducts! As Sportsnet put it, “The @BuffaloSabres bench was a little thin at the end of the game.” And what went down on the ice? Oh, just your classic hockey mayhem! With 5:29 left in the third, Moritz Seider cashed in on a 4-on-3 power play, but the real fireworks? They came two minutes later. Josh Norris and Simon Edvinsson got tangled up, and before you could blink, Tage Thompson stepped in, gloves off, ready to defend his new line mate.

That set off an absolute barn burner of a brawl—Byram squared up with Dominik Shine, and chaos erupted. When the dust settled, all 10 players on the ice—Thompson, Byram, Norris, Benson, and Samuelsson for Buffalo, plus Edvinsson, Shine, Kasper, Chiarot, and Johanssen for Detroit Red Wings—were handed game misconducts. And let’s be real, this ain’t the first time a game turned into an all-you-can-eat buffet of penalties, with 10 players parked for the night.

Not just Detroit Red Wings, but another team too!

A few days ago, the Washington Capitals grabbed their fourth victory in five games as they took down the Seattle Kraken 4-2. Meanwhile, Connor McMichael came up clutch, netting the game-winner in the third while dishing out an assist. John Carlson handed out two helpers, and Charlie Lindgren was a brick wall between the pipes with 30 saves. But while the scoreboard showed one story, the penalty box? Oh, that had a drama of its own.

If you thought you’d seen chaos in the NHL, Sunday’s game just rewrote the rulebook. Fans were left absolutely speechless when ten players got crammed into the sin bin like it was rush hour on a packed subway. B/R Open Ice had social media buzzing, posting a mid-game clip with a caption that summed it up best: “There are currently TEN guys in the penalty box between Caps and Kraken.” One fan took it even further, laughing, “10 guys in the penalty box?! This game turned into a VIP section for chaos.” And honestly? They weren’t wrong.

The third period started off with a 2-2 tie, but after a little chirping turned into a full-blown brawl, things went from zero to fight night in seconds. One second, they were jawing at each other—the next, every skater on the ice was throwing hands like they were auditioning for a UFC card. And it all kicked off in front of Seattle’s net when Tom Wilson found himself in a three-on-one showdown with the Kraken. What started as a typical hockey scuffle quickly turned into an all-out wrestling match, with bodies flying and gloves hitting the ice like confetti.

The refs? Completely outnumbered, trying to break up a battle royale that had no off switch. Players from both teams jumped in, knuckles aimed at the face across, and at some point, even keeping track of who was fighting whom became a lost cause. It got so out of hand that the officials had no choice but to send everyone straight to the penalty box—because when in doubt, just throw the whole squad in hockey jail!
