Matt Martin and Luke Schenn drop the gloves in Game 5

The New York Islanders are absolutely getting their teeth kicked in this evening in Game 5 of their semi-final series against the Tampa Bay Lightning, currently down 6-0 in the second period.

So what does Islanders enforcer Matt Martin do? He takes matters into his own hands and tries to fire up the boys with a well timed scrap.

Martin dropped the gloves in a short but spirited bout with Lightning defenceman Luke Schenn.

Honestly... not a great fight. Kinda sad, actually. What what's even sadder though is the fact that this is the highlight of the night for the Isles. Ouch.
