Deryk Engelland on Fighting Dorsett and Hamhuis at the Same Time

Engelland recalls fighting two Canucks at one time in previous playoff appearance

“It was kind of fun,” smiled the 35-year-old, who vividly remembers the chaotic scene that punctuated a 4-1 Game 2 loss in Vancouver.

“There was a scrum in front of the net and (Derek) Dorsett is on the line and he’s willing to fight. I was just going in to grab him and get him out of the scrum and he was trying to knock me down. He drops his gloves so we start fighting and next thing I know (Dan) Hamhuis is skating over and I guess I’m trying to protect myself and trying to swing for both of them.”
