This Bruins forward fought in his first game back.
Boston Bruins forward Mark Kastelic returned to the lineup in the club's latest game against the Utah Hockey Club. The 25-year-old forward last played during the Bruins' Nov. 16 matchup against the St. Louis Blues.
Kastelic certainly made some noise in his return, as he dropped the gloves with Utah HC defender Robert Bortuzzo.
After Kastelic threw some big hits, Bortuzzo went on the ice for a line change and immediately approached the Bruins forward to fight. In the end, both players got in some solid punches.
Kastelic would not stop there, as he fought Bortuzzo again during the second period. During the second fight, Kastelic had the clear upper hand and landed an array of successful punches before earning the takedown.
One of the main reasons the Bruins brought in Kastelic was his hard-nosed style of play. He certainly demonstrated this during this fight against Bortuzzo and has throughout the season. His 75 hits in his first 19 games make this abundantly clear.
