He didn't want Westgarth to fight the rookie, Kellan Lain, so he stepped up to take the faceoff. But he refused to fight Westgarth, and instead chases down Smid... leaving Westgarth to fight Lain anyways.
Here's McGrattan talking about it:

Yeah, Canucks fans were so pleased with Bieksa winning a fight (which wasn’t even clear cut) against Smid. He literally ran away from Westgarth (who wasn’t really that good of a fighter anyway).
