Wednesday night marked the CHL's top prospects game in Langley, British Columbia, and it has not disappointed one bit.

While there has been plenty of skill on display, perhaps the most exciting moment yet came early into the third period when Kalan Land and Alex Pharand chose to drop the gloves. The two engaged in a great bout, with both landing a number of solid shots before Pharand eventually wrestled Lind to the ice.

For both draft hopefuls, it was a great way to get noticed in a game where there hadn't been a ton of offense. Both players appear to have bright futures ahead of them, as Lind currently has 14 goals and 41 points in 39 games with the Red Deer Rebels, while Pharand has 16 goals and 28 points in 41 outings with the Sudbury Wolves.
