Tampa Bay Lightning forward Curtis Douglas was fined $2,018.23 Friday for serving as the aggressor in his team's latest melee with the archrival Florida Panthers.
The NHL issued the maximum allowable fine to Douglas for fighting an unwilling opponent, Panthers defenseman Niko Mikkola, in the third period of the Lightning's 6-1 home victory Thursday night.
