Senior hockey is known to have lots of action. Many players in this league strive to leave a lasting impression, and engaging in fights can be one avenue for achieving that. These confrontations can sometimes escalate into bench-clearing brawls.
A recent Quebec Senior League game showcased a prime example of such chaos, with seemingly every player on and off the bench participating in an extensive brawl.

As the turmoil intensified, more players jumped into the fray. The severity of the incident even necessitated police intervention, as mentioned in the tweet.
