VIDEO: Prust spears Anderson, goalie responds with repeated slashes
Jean-Yves Ahern-USA TODAY Sports
Craig Anderson doesn't like Brandon Prust.
Down 4-1 late in the third period, the Montreal Canadiens' agitator speared the Ottawa Senators' goalie, who wasn't having it. Anderson gave Prust two rights with his stick, before a full-out skirmish broke out. The action begins at the 1:26 mark:
Anderson was sublime Friday night, as the Senators lived another day, forcing a game six back in Ottawa on Sunday.
There will be more fireworks, we think.
