Rick Bowness and Dean Evason almost come to blows between the benches
Last night, the Minnesota Wild took on the Winnipeg Jets in an already hotly contested game that had a little bit of everything.
Late in the game, the coaches from the respective teams got in on the action, seemingly wanting a piece of each other as the temperature of the game continued to rise. Take a look:
Bowness and Evason late in game tonight. Too bad Wild and Jets don't meet in first round. This game was spicy.
This altercation took place after Bowness sent Ryan Reaves over the boards for what appeared to be staged fight.
It's awesome to see coaches get in on the action after multiple dirty hits and scrums alike. It's clear these two teams don't like each other, but for the coaches to be yelling at each other like that is something you rarely see.
The Winnipeg Jets ended up winning the game and clinching the last wild card spot in the west. It's too bad these two teams won't meet in the first round of the playoffs. Hopefully, they meet again at some point, that series would be electric
