Erik Gudbranson didn't kill Matt Martin (yet, at least) Saturday night, but he did land several punches to his adversary's face.

In a fight as preordained as they come, the two settled the score after Gudbranson failed to get his hands on Martin during the venomous meeting between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Vancouver Canucks last month.

What initially infuriated Gudbranson - and prompted him to shout death threats in the hallway after the game - was Martin engaging rookie Troy Stecher in a fight after Derek Dorsett apparently turned him down.
