The Anaheim Ducks and Ottawa Senators are currently facing off in a game that could have Connor Bedard Draft Lottery implications. With the Senators leading 4-0 late in the 2nd period, Anaheim's Ryan Strome delivered a crosscheck to the back of Jake Sanderson. The crosscheck sent Sanderson crashing awkwardly into the boards.
As soon as the hit happened Senator's Captain, Brady Tkachuk took it upon himself to send a message to Strome. As Tkachuk eyed him down he made it very clear to Strome that this was his only option. Strome eventually obliged and Tkachuk handled him as expected.
After the fight Strome was given 2-minutes for cross checking and a 5 minute major, while Tkachuk also received a fighting major.
