This Footage of the Massive Brawl at Friday’s Red Wings-Lightning Game Is Bonkers

There’s blood on the ice

Let’s be real: There’s one major reason many people go to hockey games, and it’s the fights.

Friday’s Stanley Cup playoff game was no exception. With mere seconds left in Game 2 between the Detroit Red Wings and Tampa Bay Lightning, Red Wings forward Brad Richards slashed at Tampa Bay’s Andrej Sustr. And that’s when things got out of control.

Watch the video above and tell us that giant men fighting each other with knives strapped to their feet on one of the hardest surfaces known to man isn’t what America is made of. Go on, we’ll wait.
