The Toronto Marlies and Rochester Amerks were playing the second game of a back-to-back series on Sunday, and it seems the two teams had had enough of each other. In the second period, a brawl broke out in front of Rochester's net after a hit by Marlies captain Richard Clune.

As Clune was being tossed from the game for the hit, he kept coming back to yell at players with the Amerks. He would eventually walk away, punching the wall and then turning around in the tunnel to yell some more before finally making his way to the dressing room.

It's not exactly clear if there was one incident that led to tempers getting out of hand, but there's some speculation it was this one involving the Marlies' Antti Suomela.
