Dallas Stars forward Jason Spezza shook off the fisticuff cobwebs Saturday, dropping the gloves against Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Brandon Manning early into the second period.
For Spezza, the fight was his first since the 2008-09 season when he duked it out with then-Toronto Maple Leafs captain Dion Phaneuf, according to hockeyfights.com.
The judges - and McDavid - are likely to score this one in favor of Spezza.
