Josh Anderson and Tanner Jeannot throw down the gloves at the start of the match

It's no secret that the Montreal Canadiens and the Boston Bruins are always at loggerheads.

Even though the Senators are increasingly seen as the Habs' biggest rivals, a Boston-Montreal showdown is all but inevitable.

With only three seconds remaining in the match between the two rival clubs, Josh Anderson and Tanner Jeannot threw down their gloves.

A question of setting the tone for the match.

Anderson didn't hesitate for a second to accept Jeannot's invitation to dance.

Remember that in mid-November, Jeannot had also thrown down the gloves, but this time against Arber Xhekaj, and the latter had lost that fight.

Interestingly, this was also at the very start of the match.

However, there had been two fights one after the other, with Jayden Struble also dancing.
