He knows Donald Brashear by reputation and he has known George Parros since they were Princeton pals nearly a decade ago. So as he stepped out of his limousine Wednesday night at the Honda Center, Young was already anticipating a bout between the two NHL enforcers.

“I saw them fight before,” Young said later. “It was in Washington (in 2006). George had been on the ice for about 10 seconds and he went after Brashear. But this fight was better.”
