Nic Deslauriers takes on Pat Maroon in a spirited bout; Perry gets involved with Braun in second period (videos)

The Philadelphia Flyers traveled down to Tampa Bay to take on the Lightning on Tuesday night and it didn't take long before the fists were flying between two heavyweights.

Just over nine minutes into the opening frame, Flyers forward Nic Deslauriers and Lightning forward Pat Maroon dropped the mitts in an entertaining bout that lasted nearly 30 seconds. Deslauriers had the upper-hand in the tilt, landing several big right hooks on 'The Big Rig'.

The fighting continued early in the second period in Tampa Bay. After a whistle just over two minutes and 30 seconds in, Corey Perry dropped the gloves with Justin Braun. Perry landed a couple of solid upper-cuts on Braun before taking the Flyers defenceman to the ground.
