Nicolas Aube-Kubel gets in big shot after dropping gloves with Jack Quinn (video)
Tons of action in Sunday afternoon's game between the Washington Capitals and Buffalo Sabres, as the Sabres defeated the Caps 7-4. Amid the flurry of goals in the game, the Sabres Jack Quinn and Washington's Nicolas Aube-Kubel decided to drop the gloves. While there weren't many shots landed, the last one of the fight was a doozy.
Aube-Kubel and Quinn jostled for position for a few seconds, with each of them making swings that didn't connect. Then, with Quinn on at least one knee after stumbling, Aube-Kubel caught him him with a straight hard punch right to the head. At that point, the officials jumped in the stop the fight. To Quinn's credit, he didn't miss a beat, getting right back up and looking no worse for wear at all.
