Watch: Evander Kane fights Blues' Tyler Tucker in spirited bout
Edmonton Oilers' Evander Kane dropped the gloves against St. Louis Blues' Tyler Tucker, around the 13-minute mark of the second period in the Oilers vs Blues game.
Kane cleared the puck from around the boards when Tucker slammed into Kane with a good hit. But, the Oilers forward took exception to Tucker's hit and grabbed a hold of his opponent's head and yanked off his helmet.
Both players then dropped the gloves and exchanged some big right hands. Tucker lost his balance and took a knee but got back up and re-engaged in a spirited fight with a veteran enforcer in Kane.
Evander Kane showed off his physicality to the 24-year-old Blues defenceman and landed a couple more heavy-hitting right hands on Tucker. After a tussle, Kane managed to take down his opponent onto the ice and the referees then intervened to separate the players.
Evander Kane was assessed an additional two-minute penalty for forcing off Tucker's helmet before going into the scrap.
