No Goalie Fight Tonight Despite the Goaltender Getting Involved
Usually, situations like these are moments where potential goalie fights occur, as opposing goalies will get involved when they feel like there is a numbers advantage for the other team. While it's not sure what occurred here, Arizona goaltender Connor Ingram didn't get involved. This could have been because it was the end of the game, or because Shesterkin removed himself from the action mid-way through the brawl.
Either way, Shesterkin is lucky that Dumba didn't decide to throw hands with him during the brawl.
