There is a history between Andrew Shaw and Torey Krug. The emotions of what occurred two months ago boiled over Sunday.
Refresher: Krug caught Shaw with a massive open-ice hit in December. There was no call on the play, and no further discipline for the Boston Bruins defenseman. (Krug did, briefly, fight Brendan Gallagher in that game.)
Just 58 seconds into Sunday’s game between the Bruins and Habs, Krug and Shaw dropped the gloves in a spirited scrap near the blue line, with both landing a few shots before falling to the ice.
