Anthony Duclair and Nick Cousins were all smiles as they reunited in the penalty box



Anthony Duclair spent the past two and a half seasons with the Arizona Coyotes before he was dealt to the Chicago Blackhawks last season.

Now a member of the Columbus Blue Jackets, Duclair went up against his former team on Tuesday night as the Coyotes were in Columbus and he was reunited with one of his former teammates in an unusual way.

Nearing the mid-way mark of the second period, Duclair and Coyotes centre Nick Cousins received a pair of offsetting penalties as Duclair was sent off for cross checking Cousins and the latter was sent off for roughing Duclair, but they were all smiles once they got to the penalty box.



Does anyone think Anthony Duclair wants to prove a point tonight? We think he looks like he has a point to prove for...er...some reason. — Five For Howling (@Five4Howling) October 23, 2018

Players tend to get into some intense arguments when they’re sent off for offsetting penalties, but Duclair and Cousins were all smiles this time around as they got a couple of minutes to themselves to catch up.
