Player Assaults Linesman in Northern Quebec Game

Hockey is a passionate sport. Sometimes tensions get high. In a Northern Quebec game, a player assaulted a linesman during a game.

You can see the player get off the bench for the sole purpose of throwing the referee down to the ground.

This type of behaviour is unacceptable, and hopefully this player will be met with fair punishment. While officials sometimes make bad calls, it's a thankless job. They deserve our respect.
