The American Hockey League playoffs are in the conference finals right now. The Eastern Conference final between the Laval Rocket (Montreal Canadiens) and Springfield Thunderbirds (St. Louis Blues) is now tied at 2 games a piece after the Rocket won game 4 Friday night in Overtime. But after the overtime goal was scored the game didn't end there.
As the Rocket were celebrating, multiple Thunderbirds players decided to join in and then all hell broke loose.
Multiple players started fighting and somewhere in there the Thunderbirds goalie, Joel Hofer received a spearing penalty. Four Thunderbirds players and four Rocket players were given misconducts after everything was sorted out. Game 5 should be interesting.
