Junior Hockey Coach Goes Full Paul Bunyan And Starts Hacking Away At A Heckling Fan With A Hockey Stick
That...was...AWESOME.
When you get to professional sports, dealing with heckling fans just comes with the territory. Sure, some fans might say some real fucked up shit after gassing a few Labatts, but you're making a ton of money and they're the ones who are paying a ton of money to come watch you. That doesn't change the fact that those fans are big time assholes, but they have every right to be an asshole then if they chose to be.
But when you're still in the Western States Hockey League...well I don't think that any of these players or coaches are making enough money to be able to take these assholes in stride. It's one thing if you're making millions and the fans are paying hundreds to come watch the game. But if you're making hundreds and the fans are paying like $5 for a ticket that also includes a free beer and hot dog? Well then you have every right to go grab a Warrior Alpha QX and start swinging for the fences. You might not want to make some serious contact because that's when you end up with a lawsuit. But to back him off the plate a little bit and also show your boys that you have their backs to that level? I count this as an absolute win for the coach. Especially since he didn't get suspended or anything. Shoutout to the WSHL for making the right call there.

Obligatory:
Easily the most preposterous scene out of any hockey movie. Why on Earth did they have them sword fight with their sticks before dropping the gloves? Where did anybody ever see that before? It's like whoever wrote the movie never watched a game before in their life. I feel like we don't talk about this scene enough.
