Goalie fight breaks out between Florida's Sergei Bobrovsky and San Jose's Alex
Nedeljkovic
SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) --- A goalie fight broke out with 14 minutes left in a game
Monday night between the Florida Panthers and San Jose Sharks that had gotten
increasingly chippy with post-whistle pushing and shoving.
Florida's Sergei Bobrovsky beelined from his crease to even things up after San
Jose's Alex Nedeljkovic got involved in a scrum in the corner.
Panthers fans chanted, "Bobby! Bobby!" after the two netminders were done
tussling. Cheers followed when Bobrovsky returned from a brief trip to the
locker room.
Bobrovsky and Nedeljkovic each got a 5-minute major penalty for fighting and an
additional 2-minute penalty for leaving the crease to take part in an
altercation. They stayed in the game.
The goalie nicknamed "Bob" has backstopped the NHL's southernmost team to
consecutive Stanley Cup championships.
