NHL Player Safety issues multiple fines from last night's brawl in Toronto

In case you missed it last night, things got pretty spicy in Game 1 between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Tampa Bay Lightning.

With the Leafs sitting on a commanding 5-0 lead midway through the 3rd period though, things went absolutely off the rails. Lightning pugilists Corey Perry and Pat Maroon were trying to instigate Leafs forward Wayne Simmonds into a fight, which Simmonds declined but things went absolutely haywire shortly after.

Playoff hockey, baby!

Lightning defenseman Jan Rutta seemed to get the worst of things, getting absolutely sliced wide open by Leafs defenseman Morgan Rielly.

I've said it once, I'll say it again... Playoff hockey, baby!

As a result of these shenanigans NHL Player Safety has fined Simmonds, Perry and Maroon for their involvement.
