The Montreal Canadiens and Washington Capitals brawled after the end of the second period during a wild 6-3 Montreal victory Friday night that also saw both starting goalies leave at different times with injuries.

Players were on the ice to head toward their respective dressing rooms when things heated up.

Washington’s Tom Wilson and Montreal’s Josh Anderson started going after each other. Their fight continued on the Capitals bench while a linesman tried to separate them. They ended up on the floor on the bench.

While that was going on, other players started trying to get involved or tussling with each other.

Wilson and Anderson were given roughing minors and 10-minute misconducts. Washington’s Lars Eller and Montreal’s Arber Xhekaj also received roughing minors.

After things were broken up, Wilson looked at Canadiens players and mocked them that they were crying.

Montreal won Game 3 as Cole Caufield, Nick Suzuki and Juraj Slafkovsky, the three forwards on their top line, each chipped in a goal. The Canadiens cut their series deficit to 2-1.

Sam Montembault, Logan Thompson injury updates

Goalie Sam Montembault left the game with an apparent injury in the middle of the second period and was replaced by Jakub Dobes. The Canadiens announced that Montembault would not return to the game.

Capitals goalie Logan Thompson also had a rough go. He was slashed in the head by Montreal’s Nick Suzuki and took a shot up high but stayed in the game. He later needed help getting off the ice in the third period after teammate Dylan Strome collided with him during the fifth Montreal goal.
