Tensions were flaring during the Sharks game against the Panthers on Monday night as Florida welcomed Matthew Tkachuk back into the lineup for the first time all season.
During the third period, frustrations boiled over, and a skirmish broke out behind San Jose’s net. Sharks goalie Alex Nedeljkovic didn’t waste any time getting involved, as he entered the fray in order to go after Evan Rodrigues, who kicked off the skirmish with a cheap shot to the back of Vincent Desharnais.
