Sh*t Vs. Giggles: The Slapfest at Scotiabank Place
Rotoworld is reporting that Ottawa Senators Jason Spezza and Chris Neil "fought" each other at practice today.
No word on whether the contents of their purses were spilled during the incident.
Update: Here's video footage of the scrap:
"I don't know what happened," [Spezza] said. As teammates, sometimes you get into it. It was just a (spitting) match. I'll buy him lunch today. But I knew when he dropped the gloves, it was time to get out of there. Just stay at arm's length."
Too bad for Spezza that there weren't any linesmen on the ice or Neil would never have engaged.

Nice to see Neil finally go after somebody in his weight class.

hah, all I picture is a girly-type slap fight between them…

Don’t forget the hair-pulling!
Being a Leaf fan here requires one to be sufficiently lubricated... and truculent!
good point!

I, for one, am dying to know if they sniffed each other’s butts afterward.

Hey! I've got a blog to promote now!
It sounds like Neil didn’t actually land a punch. So I’m assuming he still skated off the ice waving his arms at the crowd.

It kills me how even Jason Spezza knows that all you need to do to avoid Chris Neil is “just stay at arm’s length”.

Heh, yeah.
But still, to paraphrase Spezza, he’s going to give the bully his lunch money so he’ll leave him alone.
Guess Spezza is wearing the ballsack tonight…and Alfredsson conspicuous by his absence of ‘leadership’ in this tiff, tsk tsk.
