The thrashing racked up millions of views after eagle-eyed NHL fans identified Ogilvie's opponent as likely being Tarnasky.

When Tarnasky warns him, 'You're not scaring anybody,' Ogilvie becomes more agitated, hurling his sunglasses on the ground, ripping off his gloves and yelling, 'Let's f—in' go, man. Ho, ho, ho,' before charging the former enforcer.

Tarnasky immediately sends him flying into a nearby pond, which should have been the end of it. But a soaked Ogilvie staggers out of the water and tries to square up with the ex-NHLer again, only to be laid out by five punches to the noggin that were punctuated by Tarnasky yelling out 'bang' after each blow.

'Enough! Enough! Get out!' Tarnasky, who coaches an under-17 team, screams as he chucks the dazed gasbag into the grass a final time.

Ogilvie eventually stumbles away, clearly not realizing who he had run up against. During his 13 years as a pro hockey player, which included 245 NHL games with Tampa Bay and Florida, Tarnasky racked up 297 penalty minutes fighting tough guys like Tanner Glass, Aaron Asham, Zenon Konopka and Milan Lucic.
