Line Brawl! Line Brawl!

((HT: Sportsnet))

The game was 7-0, so the end wasn't in much doubt...

So, usually, in these circumstances what happened below happens to send a message...

Here's the longer version...
((HT: NHL Network))


And here's a shorter piece of it...
You figure Ray Emery will get a suspension for going from one end of the rink to the other... Emery received the highest total of 29 penalty minutes. He was charged with leaving the goal crease, instigating a fight, and fighting. He was also ejected. "He didn't want to fight, but I basically said, 'Protect yourself,'" Emery said postgame.

114 penalty minutes were handed out in the brawl itself.
Philadelphia racked up 99 penalty minutes, and Washington received 65 in the game from beginning to end...

Vincent Lecavalier lost some teeth as a result of his battle.
Steve Downie suffered a concussion.
And (better yet) Emery was named the third star of the game...

The HQ is NOT even kidding on that one...
