During Friday's game between the Kelowna Rockets and Seattle Thunderbirds in the Western Hockey League, Montreal Canadiens prospect Jared Davidson one-punched his opponent in a fight.
Davidson, a fifth round pick of the Canadiens in July's draft, dropped the mitts with Rockets defenceman John Babcock. Davidson grabs Babcock's jersey, while the latter tries to throw a punch at the Habs prospect. Davidson then throws a hard right to Babcock's face, knocking him out with one punch. Check it out in the video below!
Davidson is known more for his offensive play as during his draft year, he put up 42 goals and 89 points in 64 games as a defenceman. So far, this year he's followed that up by recording 47 points in 28 games. He's definitely one of the more underrated prospects in Montreal's system.
