goalie fights rules.. it's funny at the same time IMO, plus it's like almost personal
. The best is when they both start skating and meet in the center of the ice and just start whailing.. They steal the show at that point.
Fun fact for NHL followers, I've seen only .. two goalie fights in our elite league in my life. I'm sure they happen but they are EXTREMELY rare.In da butt.
