Flyers Fans Not Happy With Resulting Penalties
Obviously, the fight was an immediate reaction to the wrongdoings by Hakanpaa. However, the penalties didn't reflect that, as Hakanpaa served only 2 minutes for roughing on Konecny and 5 minutes for fighting Seeler. however, Seeler revived a 2-minute instigator penalty for grabbing Hakanpaa, 5 minutes for fighting, and a 10-minute misconduct.
While the Flyers were able to get the victory in the fight, they were unable to secure the win in the game, losing 5-4 in overtime to the Stars.
