The Edmonton Oilers versus Colorado Avalanche game got heated last night and resulted in a heavyweight fight between Josh Manson and Vincent Desharnais.

Heavyweight Fight Breaks Out Between Desharnais and Masnon



The Colorado Avalanche are poised to be a tough competitor this year down the stretch and into the post season, as they proved last night against the Edmonton Oilers. While both teams are known for their offensive skills, the game last night got a bit heated.

During the final minute of the second period, things boiled over and a scrum broke out. That is when Vincent Desharnais and Josh Manson broke out into a full-fledged fight.

The fight started a bit wonky, as the two fell to the ice early. Interestingly, they were able to get back to their feet before the linesmen could step in. It appears Manson was able to get the most shots in, however, Desharnais got a few tight uppercuts in as well.

The Avalanche were able to get the best of the Oilers in a crazy way, as they were able to score in the final seconds of overtime to seal the deal before the game would need a shootout. Nathan MacKinnon was able to feed an incredible pass to Artturi Lehkonen streaking in front, who tapped in the game-winner.
