Friendly interaction between Zach Hyman and Jamie Benn turns abusive in a hurry
The Dallas Stars rolled into Edmonton with one thing in mind; make the game a miserable experience for the Oilers on home ice. That's exactly what happened. The game was a runaway 6-2 victory for the Stars and nothing came easy for the Oilers.
Once again, the net was filled on former Leaf Jack Campbell, as "Soup" allowed all 6 goals in the contest on 36 shots, finishing his night with an abysmal .833 SV%. But Campbell wasn't the only former Leaf victimized in this one. Zach Hyman also found himself in a bit of a dust-up with Stars veteran roughneck Jamie Benn.
As a scrum was unfolding in the corner, Hyman and Benn stood just inside the blueline, looking fairly friendly as they held each other back from the scrum to avoid any odd-man situations, one arm around each other. As they disengaged, Benn chopped the stick out of Hyman's hands. Hyman flashed him a look like "seriously, bro?" and then as he went to pick up his stick, Benn grabbed him by the collar and the pushing and shoving began.
Benn thrives when playing this style of game, so it's no shock to see him mixing it up. As far as the interaction itself, it went from relatively friendly to pretty dicey in a real hurry.
