Holy bananas! This is exactly how I want my hockey!
Washington Capitals defenseman Jakob Chychrun notched the 100th goal of his career, the legendary Alex Ovechkin added his 901st into an empty net, and the Caps topped the Carolina Hurricanes, 4-1. Oh yeah, it was a magical night for Washington.
And it was also a magical night for us hockey fans. (RELATED: Averett, Guilford Football Programs Cancel Rest Of Seasons After Wild Brawl Escalates Into Utter Chaos)
But the chaos that we did get … it was absolutely beautiful.

Things were so wild that even Stormy (the official mascot of the Hurricanes) wanted a piece of the Caps — just check out this ice hog!

I was actually in the middle of watching college basketball (Florida State vs. Florida) when my editor sent me this, and when I watched it, I couldn’t help but to marvel at the scene. This brawl was so entertaining that, quite frankly, it’s a piece of art.
People like to talk about what’s the new Mona Lisa, what it possibly could be … I’d like to throw these views into the ring.
