Seeing as it was a NextGen game, it's entirely possible that the crowd was too full of parents having to explain why the fight even happened.

I'm reminded of my co-worker's 4-year-old seeing fights at his first hockey game (Fronts v Pete's) and responding with "😲! They're bad boys!"

Ryan Reaves hadn’t fought all season until he dropped the gloves with the Columbus Blue Jackets' Mathieu Olivier on Wednesday night.

Auston Matthews wasn't pleased with the crowd's reaction.
