It's obvious that the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Boston Bruins rivalry is hitting its peak, as the two teams got into a heated battle right from the opening faceoff last night. However, that violence wasn't contained to just the ice last night.
During the game, a brawl broke out in the upper level of the stands. It is hard to tell whether it was between Leaf fans and Bruins fans, however, it doesn't appear to be so. It starts between two people squaring up, and eventually, a few others jump in.
The energy was clearly in the air for game 1 of the series last night! Hopefully no one was seriously injured from the brawl, and those involved were punished accordingly. While the game itself didn't feature any fights, there were more than enough scrums to go around last night.
