Some more details are coming out about the altercation between Tony DeAngelo and Alexandar Georgiev. Rick Carpiniello in The Athletic (subscription required) is reporting that it was Georgiev who tried to clock DeAngelo with his blocker after the defenseman made a remark about Sidney Crosby’s game winning overtime goal. The report is that Georgiev had DeAngelo in a headlock when the scuffle was broken up by a New York Rangers teammate.
With the Tony DeAngelo saga nearing an end, it’s worth noting that locker room turmoil is not unique to the New York Rangers or sports in general.
