Donald Brashear has a new team but is up to his same old antics. Last night, the new Ranger enforcer faced his old team, the Washington Capitals, and showed he didn’t really miss them. Brashear had drawn the ire of Rangers fans when he hurt Blair Betts in last year’s playoffs, but has quickly proven he’s a part of the team. He did this by squaring off with Capitals tough man Brandon Sudgen on two separate occasions. Neither fighter landed any real blows in the first tussle. The second encounter was a little more exciting. Sudgen and Brashear dance a bit and then get tangled up in the beginning. But once Brashear gets rid of his pesky jersey, he’s able to deal some damage to Sudgen. I’m still not a huge Brashear fan, but he’s doing a good job to win me over. Both videos are after the jump.
