Buffalo Sabres teammates Rasmus Dahlin and Peyton Krebs engaged in a fight during a practice session following a sequence of aggressive plays. The altercation began when Dahlin delivered a hip check on Krebs after being hit with a high stick earlier by Krebs. The skirmish, quickly broken up by teammates, was downplayed by both players and head coach Lindy Ruff, who emphasized the importance of competitive practices. Dahlin expressed regret over his actions, while Krebs noted that the intensity reflects their passion and is part of being competitive. The Sabres, who have had a challenging start to the season, aim to channel this intensity as they face the Pittsburgh Penguins next. Observers, including analyst Paul Bissonnette, suggest the incident could serve as a motivational spark for the team.
