And the other was Adam Deadmarsh, who fought both Sean Brown and Kelly Buchberger (but got the boot for instigating the second one). In Deadmarsh's defense, Buchberger had just run Sakic, and Deadmarsh got Sakic out of the way and went after Buchberger.

The only players to have 2 goals and 2 fights are Bob Probert and...Luc Robitaille. The only ones to have 2 assists and 2 fights are Jim Sandlak and Stephen Leach.

Steve Yzerman and Rob Blake were both a fight away from a double in 1993:

I'm always surprised why hockey fans put so much interest into the "Gordie Howe Hat-Trick" as silly as the name is. It would be like a baseball fan counting up how many times somebody recorded a homer, a sac bunt, and got hit by a pitch in the same game or something equally silly. I suppose when there's a lock out there's nothing else to talk about though.
