The Nashville Predators beat the San Jose Sharks, 3-2, on Tuesday night. There were two fights during the first period as Barclay Goodrow and Andreas Englund had a good old fashioned brawl, but Vinny Desharnais and Cole Smith could never get enough space to throw any quality punches.

Players get caught off guard, and sometimes, they don't like that, so they fight about it. Other times, they just don't like each other. And they fight about that, too. You mostly expect the fights to happen on the ice — not in the stands.
