Late in the second period in tonight's season opener for the Calgary Flames and Winnipeg Jets and tempers are beginning to boil over.
After laying a questionable hit from behind on Jets forward Kyle Connor, Flames defenseman Noah Hanifin had a face full of Jets sniper Patrik Laine. Say what!?
Yup. Laine came to Connor's aid and started somewhat of a skirmish behind the Flames' net. Matthew Tkachuk (go figure) got invovled, as did Chris Tanev.

Hmm... anyone out there still questioning Laine's passion?
