Tempers Flare During Red Wings Practice Resulting In Two Teammates To Go At It
Things have been rough in Detroit with the Red Wings on a six-game losing streak, slipping out of their playoff position. To add to the challenges, a significant scuffle broke out at their practice today, and we've got the footage.
During Wednesday morning's practice, defenseman Ben Chiarot and the up-and-coming Lucas Raymond let their frustrations boil over, resulting in a noticeable tussle between the two.
The exact cause of the spat is unclear, but the altercation was caught on video.
Here's the footage of what went down:
Ben Chiarot and Lucas Raymond had to be separated during Wings practice.
Detroit has lost 6 in a row and has fallen out of the top-8 in the East
The team surely hopes to move beyond this incident as they eye a crucial comeback in the playoff race. The Atlantic Division is notoriously competitive, and with the Detroit Red Wings needing to edge out the Tampa Bay Lightning, who are currently one win ahead, every game counts.
With the playoff chase heating up, we're eager to see if Detroit can regroup and make a successful run for it.
