The Bruins returned stateside after their season-opening trip to Prague with a visit to the nation's capital. In their fourth game of the year, it was Gregory Campbell who proved most eager to drop the gloves.

It took less than four minutes for Campbell, the B's newest center who was the lone player to fight in Prague, to square off with Matt Hendricks. Hendricks tried to throw the first punch, but Campbell caught his arm and the two circled each other for a little bit. Campbell landed the first successful punch, and he added on a few extra punches, eventually jarring Hendricks' helmet loose. Hendricks recovered quickly, throwing a few right hooks and catching Campbell off balance.

Campbell tried, but could not recover, and he ultimately fell on the ice before the referees broke up the fight.

Check it out in the video above, and vote below on what you thought of the fight.
