Welcome to the Thunderdome, wet birds.
The Capitals welcomed the Penguins to Capital One Arena, and it didn’t take but 90 seconds for things to pop off big time.
Pittsburgh’s Jamie Oleksiak started a fight with Washington’s Tom Wilson, presumably over Wilson’s injuring of Pittsburgh’s Zach Aston-Reese in last year’s Stanley Cup playoffs.
I saw started a fight, because Tom Wilson finished it.
