NHL brothers are always a riot when they play in the league at the same time. Usually, they're pretty close in age and grew up together, quite competitive, and push one another in the literal sense and emotionally while poking fun at one another on who is mom's favourite.

Brady and Matthew have always been known to be competitive with one another, even when they face off against each other as an Ottawa Senator and a Florida Panther. During media day today, the brothers were showing off their style, and of course, things got heated after the face-off was done for the photo op.
