KHL Russian League. Long story short Russians are notorious fighters, but officials frown upon it in Hockey apparently. Over 190k in fines, both teams suffered a loss as a result.
It's 1987 it is Canada vs Russia for the world junior hockey championship. Canada was assured to win, then a fight between Pavel Kostichkin and Theoren Fleury started. The rest is history as the brawl ensued officials in desperation turned off the arena lights, the fighting continued even after that. In the end both teams were ejected, players, and coaches were suspended for eighteen months and three respectively years an appeal on the players behalf reduced the punishment.
riley cote ko'ing andre roy (when he was on TBL) on one punch was sick. He honestly never won another fight, with like 40 or 50 under his belt. But that is just recent history, nice list.
I know absolutely nothing about hockey. Is there rules for fighting or something? In one of the videos it said someone won because of cuts. Does winning mean no penalty or something?

No that's just the evaluation for fun/pride. Nowadays actually there are fewer fights because they added a rule that instigating a fight gets you an extra 2 minute penalty which hurts your team. Which is dumb because fighting and enforcers exist for a reason, so there's a good chance at retribution if you take cheap shots at the other team's good players. This is IMO why there have been so many problems with cheap shots and dirty hits recently.
LOVE THESE FIGHTS.....How can you not love hockey fights... ^^ Unlike any other sport, there is this old school flavour to it all, just punching it out.

BAD CANADIAN BAD
so this is pretty much post videos of fights and brawls??? I always knew being a hockey nerd would be a useful skill some day
Ron Hextall. Not just fights, but totally worth it. This man somehow accumulated more than 100PIM a season for his first three years. This video will give you a good idea of why.
PJ Stock became a cult hero in BAHSTAN after this WAR with the much bigger Eric Boulton
And then he became a legend for not just the best fight of the year, but probably of the decade.
Rick Rypien of Vancouver is a midget who likes to fight much bigger men
One of my personal favorites, Colton Orr kills a Flyer goon
More of Colton being a badass
Recent one of Ivanans getting murdered
Now some oldies: Joey Fuckin Kocur and Motorhead. DONE
Bob Probert: Raging alchy and cokehead, awesome fighter
Tie Domi was a cocksucker, but actually a pretty good fighter. Some highlights
