After the whistle blew, Brad Marchand, being Brad Marchand, chose to wrestle Clayton Keller to the ground and engage in a brawl. The two were observed chirping back and forth in the penalty box after receiving identical penalties.
With an assist on Pastrnak's goal in the first period, Marchand earned his 900th career point in the NHL. The game would go into overtime, tying 3-3. This was Boston's second back-to-back overtime, and Schmaltz's game-winning goal would give the Coyotes the victory in the end.
