Mark Kastelic returned to the Boston Bruins lineup on Thursday night after missing one game due to injury. He made an impact right away, fighting Robert Bortuzzo, a defenseman for the Utah Hockey Club, twice. The Bruins won the game 1-0 at TD Garden.
Mark Kastelic, who is 6-foot-4 and weighs 226 pounds, wasn’t intimidated by the physical play. His first fight with Bortuzzo happened early in the first period. Bortuzzo jumped onto the ice, grabbed Kastelic and they exchanged punches before falling. The second fight in the second period was more intense. Kastelic landed several right-handed punches, sending Bortuzzo to the ice.
“Sometimes it’s more technical, sometimes it’s just a little bit more rage, whatever you call it,” Kastelic said (via NESN). “That time I was a little bit angry, but that’s just a part of it."
