Both teams went on to complete the 60 minutes of play with Wings and Sabres combining for 150 penalty minutes, with 136 of them coming in the third period alone. When all was said and done, Detroit secured a 7-3 win over Buffalo to snap a six-game losing streak, but the chaos on the ice stole the spotlight.

Wednesday night's game between the Detroit Red Wings and Buffalo Sabres didn't disappoint in that regard, with players from both teams getting into it in the third period.
