Toronto and Montreal teams seem to have learnt the lessons from their ice hockey playing friends. Suddenly the game turns nasty. One of the players hits an opponent over the head with his stick. The injured party clutches his head and seems disorientated for a moment. He then turns around to retaliate and a fight breaks out. The referee and team mates step in to calm things down.
