Buffalo Sabres forward Nicolas Deslauriers laid a solid hit on Boston Bruins defenseman Kevan Miller in the first period of Saturday’s game, which led to the two players dropping their gloves for a fight just seconds later.
It was the first bout of the season for both players.
The B’s played the rest of the game with just five defensemen.
UPDATE (10:30 p.m.) — The Bruins had an update on Miller’s status after the game.
