Re: the Elvis-Marchenko flare up at the morning skate, it wasn’t a huge deal.
It was newsworthy to post about, because they weren’t joking around, but it looked more like a squabble you’d see between brothers etc.

He said that the Russian hockey player had tripped and hit himself, but then started looking for the scab because he thought he had tripped on Elvja’s stick, but the Latvian had simply slipped past.
There was a fight between the hockey players until the Russian was dragged away by his compatriot Dmitry Voronkov. Hedger later stated that Elvis apologized to Marchenko and the teammates made peace.
On Sunday, Merzlikin remained on the bench when the “Blue Jackets” lost 1:3 (0:0, 1:0, 0:3) to the local “Bruins” in Boston.
