Video: Nick Foligno & Corey Perry Drop The Gloves After Tavares Hit


Nick Foligno knows when a teammate goes down, you stand up, and in Game 1 he showed the Toronto Maple Leafs he's a team guy. After John Tavares was stretchered off, Foligno skated over to Montreal Canadiens forward Corey Perry and basically told him you have no choice but to fight me.

Perry didn't hit Tavares on purpose, it was a very accidently play where Perry admitted after the game he felt sick to his stomach about it. Regardless, it's hockey, there's a code the players follow and when something like this happens, you have to answer the bell.

Kudos to both players with this one:
