John Klingberg gets into first NHL fightFebruary 23, 2021 | 04:38 AM

John Klingberg got into his first NHL fight on Monday. Analysis: His opponent was Patric Hornqvist in a battle between the Swede and the Finn. The fight occurred in a frustrating second period for the Stars as they were outshot 29-4 by the Panthers. "I think it was a little bit of that for sure," Klingberg said of his frustration with how the period went. "It went on for way too long in the second period and I felt like maybe we needed a break or something. I tried to do something different. Why it happened, I think it was just because he was trying to get to the net-front really bad and I was trying to hold him out." Klingberg has two goals and 12 points in 13 games as well as 13 penalty minutes.
