The Athletic detroit had a somewhat balanced article on last night's game. They definitely play off Witkowski's antics though.

The first moment the notion that this late-game fight might escalate into something more came when Luke Witkowski finished fighting Flames defenseman Brett Kulak and immediately wanted to take on someone else.
In this case, it was another Flames defenseman, Travis Hamonic. Witkowski was definitely salty.
“We were kind of jawing at each other during the game,” Witkowski explained.
But it wasn’t until the extra prodding from Flames agitator Matthew Tkachuk that this thing went haywire
