The NHL season doesn't start in September, but a lot of other leagues (pro, junior, etc) get the regular started this month, or at the very least play preseason games like the NHL.

The NAHL is USA Hockey's Tier II junior league and their preseason has already started with a bang. During a game between the Corpus Christi IceRays and the Lone Star Brahmas, things got out of hand to say the least which led to the goalies dropping the gloves.

The fight came with 51 seconds left in the 2nd period and because it happened so late in the period, they started intermission early and finished up the 2nd frame after.

With 51 seconds left in the second period, we have a PIER SIX BRAWL!

And here they go........GOALIE FIGHT!!!!!! Sam Best squaring off with Harrison Feeney!

The second intermission will start now so they can, uh, clean up the ice. Then we'll finish the second period. #CORvsLSB pic.twitter.com/FwLC6yQkY0

Goalie fights don't happen often during the regular season, so you just know tensions were running high because these two goalies fought during a preseason game.
