Three Stars Players Team Statistics Merchandise Action Shots

All that changed last night as the game spun out of control. This writer isn't even sure what happened to start the melee. But, as the game reached the final two minutes Chad Gray, the Viper's two way utility player, a player who has had his ups and downs as a member of the Viper's, became engaged in a fight, that, at first, was typical of many hockey fights. Two players, locked together, each trying to get an advantage on his adversary. Other players, moving out of the way or grabbing onto an opponent as if to say, "don't even think about getting involved". Suddenly, as the two fighters wrestled each other to the ice, the fighting, normally over at this point continued. Gray had this to say in the locker room shortly after the game. "When it went to the ice what happened happened. I don't have much more to say about that".
