Video: Hockey fight gets interesting perspective with on-ice camera

Hockey fights are leaving the NHL, but that isn’t the case in lower leagues where teams are scratching and clawing their way to make a difference. Seeing a fight from a different perspective may change some minds even if the fight was only from a glorified beer league game.

Patriots hockey (military) faced off against the San Diego Spartans (law enforcement officers) and the two sides got into a big scrap. All of the action was recorded by Jamie Lynch who was skating on the ice with the players with a camera attached to a hockey stick.

The views and angles are incredible.

While it may distract during play, recording the aftermath was fascinating and great to watch. I wonder if this will be embraced by other teams and leagues after seeing the footage. Can you imagine when there is a stoppage in play, you see a camera in your face getting crazy angles? It sounds interesting but not entirely feasible.

If you are wondering if the two sides ended up making up, they took a picture after the game and everything was cheery. That is the beauty of hockey, right?
