Max Domi hit Nate Schmidt. Nate Schmidt cross-checked Max Domi. End result: gloves on the ice and punches in the air.
It was a brief affair between Max Domi and Washington defenseman Nate Schmidt. Both took the liberty of committing some cheap shots and both were looking to mix it up.
But neither really found their footing in this match up.
Fans say Domi won this fight by a 43.8% decision, which is slightly surprising but not out of this world unbelievable.
From my count, Domi launched 5 attempts to Schmidt’s 1, but Schmidt’s landed in a better spot than all five of Domi’s plus he landed on top at the end of the scrap.
So if we are counting shear volume of punches and aggression, Domi wins the wrestling match, but if we are going for quality, this is more of a draw than a win for Domi.
None the less, Domi finished his season with a 3-0-1 fighting record. Not bad for a rookie whose hands are supposed to be for scoring.
