Bruins winger Nathan Horton set a new career high with his fourth fight of the season on Sunday night in Edmonton. It was how he did it, however, that won't soon be forgotten — especially by Theo Peckham.

After what Horton apparently deemed a questionable hit by Peckham in the first period, the Bruins forward immediately sought out his Edmonton counterpart.

The two dropped the gloves for a round of fisticuffs. Even though he was pinned up against the glass, it was Horton who was able to deliver a devastating right hand on Peckham, setting the tone for a physical night.

Later, Milan Lucic engaged in a lengthy bout with Jim Vandermeer, one in which both pugilists landed heavy blows.
