Report: Head coach receives an enormous fine following line brawl.

Bob Hartley has gone to bat for the Calgary Flames all season. This time it's going to cost him. The Flames bench boss was fined $50,000 for his role in the line brawl that took place late in the team's 4-1 loss to the Vancouver Canucks in Game 2, the NHL announced Saturday. The league called it “his responsibility” for a line brawl that broke out late in the third period of Game 2 between his team and the Canucks on Friday. A total of 132 penalty minutes were handed out in the melee. However, the league also announced that Deryk Engelland‘s game misconduct for instigating a fight in the final minutes was rescinded. As a result, he will avoid suspension. This isn’t the first time Hartley has been disciplined for such an incident. In January of 2014, he was fined $25,000 for what the league called a “premeditated fight” after another line brawl started between the Flames and Canucks right off the opening faceoff at Rogers Arena.
