This is deplorable, and this type of behaviour can't be accepted in this sport.
Here is a quote from the events:
Another disturbing scene in minor hockey arenas in Quebec... Sunday evening at the Aréna Côte-de-Beaupré, a coach jumped on the ice and attacked a player from the opposing team.
Hopefully this coach won't be allowed on the ice again. This isn't the type of violence that should be taught to minor hockey players.
