Video: Brad Marchand and Vladislav Namestnikov Drop The Gloves

Vladislav Namestnikov of the Detroit Red Wings has found himself within some trade rumors recently and the league wide interest in his services just went up after he dropped the gloves with Boston Bruins pest Brad Marchand.

The play happened during the early goings of the second period as the Wings and Bruins were tied at one. Marchand and Namestnikov got tangled up in the neutral zone and next thing you know the flippers are off.

While there wasn't many haymakers landed, seeing Marchand take some punches and be thrown around to the ice is a site that a lot of NHL fans are here for. Enjoy, Mr Perfect.

Brad Marchand's New Year's resolution, per jumbotron video: "I don't have one. I'm perfect."
