Video: Mann Cup Bench Clearing Brawl from Game 1 in New West

The term bench clearing brawl gets thrown around a little too casually these days for NLL Insider’s liking.

For a play-by-play of last night’s classic, hit up NLL Insider’s Teddy Jenner’s post-game blog live from the press box at Queens Park Arena, but for vid evidence of what a bench emptyin’ throw-down really is, check it out after the jump.
