Luke Schenn vs Tyler Kennedy

Game - Pittsburgh Penguins vs Toronto Maple Leafs
Fighters - Luke Schenn, Tyler Kennedy

 

Luke Schenn erases Evgeni Malkin against the boards and that didn't sit well with most of the Penguins. Tyler Kennedy comes off the bench to fight Luke Schenn.

More fight talk and even a Doug Gilmour sighting after the jump!

The hit

You don't see the star players hit hard very often and you rarely see Malkin get hit other then the few times Alex Ovechkin has tried to run him over.

Schenn skates with Malkin and flattens him against the boards in his rookie season.

The fight

Tyler Kennedy came off the bench for this and was given a one game suspension by the NHL.

Both Schenn and Kennedy drop the gloves and remove their own helmets/visors. They both throw punches and then Schenn rag dolls him to the ice and pounds on him then they get up and they go down again soon after with Schenn coming out on top of him.

The Quote

"The Penguins are mad that Schenn was tugging on Super Mans cape"

Luke Schenn fighting

Luke Schenn has shown that he will fight pretty much all comers in his first three years in the NHL. He isn't the best fighter and he has taken some lumps but you can see he is getting stronger and getting better at fighting with the more experience he gains. Last season he was in two pretty good fights - one against Patrick Kaleta and another against Dale Weise.

 

93

In the video where Schenn fights Kennedy you can see the #93 patch on his sweater. Before that game the Maple Leafs raised Doug Gilmour's banner to the rafter at the ACC.

The Leafs had a banner raising for Clark and Gimour that year.

Here is the pre-game ceremony for Gilmour prior to the game (goosebumps)

The Hockey Hall of Fame game where all this years inducted members will on the ice pre game in Toronto goes November 12th, a Saturday night game against the Ottawa Senators.

How great will that be with so many former Leafs being inducted including Killer himself.
