all of the FIGHTS from last night – November 24th, 2021

Weekdays are alright for fights? Last week we had five fights on Thursday, and seven fights on Tuesday. Yesterday yet another week day and we are blessed with five more fights featuring a 1st overall pick, a young pugilist getting everyone’s attention, two of the biggest draws to hockeyfights.com for the last three years AND the return of a guy who in his last fight was knocked out cold. These storylines and all of the FIGHTS from last night – November 24th, 2021, now:

SJS/OTT

Jacob Middleton (SJS) vs. Austin Watson (OTT)

Between Kurtis Gabriel (now with the Leafs) and now Jacob Middleton, the San Jose Sharks are one of the better developers of some fisticuff talent. Come for the fight between the two, stay for Jake Brenk or Reid Anderson’s (the refs) Wes McCauley impression.

SEA/CAR

Vince Dunn (SEA) vs. Andrei Svechnikov (CAR)

Svechnikov comes in on Dunn and an active stick throws him off the puck. He proceeds to throw a fore arm shiver of sorts and he and Dunn get to shoving. Svechnikov, possibly having learned from his last fight, is the first to get the punch away. Right now, Andrei has a commanding lead in the vote.

COL/ANA

Nicolas Deslauriers (ANA) vs. Kurtis MacDermid (COL)

This is an absolute marquee matchup —

Round 1: 02/01/20
Round 2: 12/12/19
Round 3: 02/02/21
Round 4: Above

Two Hockeyfights fan favourites facing off? Absolutely. The 4th fight between the two in 714 days (and a global pandemic).

NYI/NYR

Alexis Lafreniere (NYI) vs. Jean-Gabriel Pageau (NYR)

A first overall pick, standing up for his guy who he thought had been hit in the face by JG Pageau earlier (we included that hit in the clip at the end)
