Vincent Lecavalier, the man who (thankfully) spurned the Washington Capitals offseason for a deal with the Flyers during the offseason, was all smiles before last night’s game. Why wouldn’t he be? The 33-year-old forward is making a cool $4.5 million over the next five seasons, and he is producing– leading the Flyers in points (7 in 9 games).
After the game, however, Lecavalier was lucky could move his head. His team started a ridiculous line-brawl after getting smoked 7-0 and, the French Canadian, who has dropped his gloves 25 times, fought Steve Oleksy. That proved to be unwise.
Lecavalier reportedly lost teeth in the bout and is day-to-day with a facial contusion (someone please explain to me what that means).
#CapitalsTalk I'm also told Lecavalier had tooth or teeth broken in fight with Oleksy

Speaking this morning, Oleksy clearly wanted to move on.
“It’s like anything in hockey: That was last game, you’ve got to put it behind you and focus on tonight’s game,” Steve Oleksy told The Washington Post’s Chelsea Janes. “What happened last night is over and done with, and we’re moving on.”
We’re not quite ready to move on yet.
Here are photos of Oleksy and Lecavalier’s fight.
