Line brawl off opening faceoff and several other bouts during KHL preseason game (videos)

A lot of NHL players are still on vacation this time of the year. KHL players, however, are already taking part in a preseason tournament, with the regular season beginning September 1st. As part of the tournament, the host team Sochi squared off against Avangard Omsk on Thursday, and a line brawl broke out as soon as the opening faceoff puck was dropped.

It didn't end there either, with more fights breaking out before the game ended, including another line brawl.
