Video: Kessel and Booth briefly fight during practice

The Toronto Maple Leafs are a frustrated group and tempers finally boiled over during the team’s practice on Friday. Phil Kessel and David Booth engaged in a brief altercation during a scrimmage before it was broken up by the other players.

These things happen and shouldn’t be blown out of proportion, but it’s difficult not to do so considering the team in question is the Maple Leafs. Practices can get heated – especially when things aren’t going your way – but even successful teams (St. Louis Blues) have had a skirmish break out in practice.
