Hockey is emotional sport. It is easy to get overwhelmed, and to act impulsively. However, most players have the sense to never take things too far. When you're armed with sharp blades on your feet, it is easy to injure.
In Colorado, a horrifying incident occurred. A player was thrown on the ground and attacked by a skate. Here is the video:
-
The player's mother commented, assuring that the player would be alright. She equally commented that criminal charges have been filed.
-
This kind of display is never okay, and hopefully, justice will occur.
