On April 7, 1997, Wayne Primeau dropped the gloves and fought his older brother, Keith, when things got testy in Sean Burke’s goal crease in an NHL game between the Sabres and Hartford Whalers. Their mother was not pleased.

The scrap between those siblings though was nothing compared to the horseplay that went on in the Staal house in Thunder Bay, where Eric, Marc, Jordan and Jared grew up. With the smallest of the Staal boys standing 6-foot-2, the house, walls and all, also took its share of abuse with the brothers leaving behind the odd dent here or a crack there from the wars at home.

I'd heard about Jared, but not the other two.

Yeah, I think the Pens are pleasantly surprised with Jordan, 23 goals already, more than Sundin, Jagr, Cheechoo, and Brad Richards, only 1 less than his brother. All this is only 14 minutes of ice time per night
