Fan Draws Goalie Blood During Russian Hockey Game

"This was the most terrible match in my life. At first we didn't understand, then we seen that a fan climbed over the glasses and with a stick hit Vitaly [Kolesnik]'s head. Only a miracle saved him. I don't want to think if that person would hit him in the temple. This was a shock for everyone in the arena."

If they had allowed Obama to throw down the puck none of this would have happened.
What a violent sport – the Democrats should make it illegal to play such a violent sport. They could atleast demand with legislation that they keep pads on the ends of the sticks while playing. I hope our Government does something about this violent sport here in the U.S. Even if I never go to a live game, I want to be protected from this display of evil right wing knuckle dragging sport. (verp)

Again one person ruins things for the rest. Punishing all for the acts of a few is not common sense.

I knew one person would be sure to call me out for that. Do you not read my other posts? LOL!

Hell, I say we all carry sticks while walking around.

I’ve played and officiated hockey games for nearly two decades. On the ice, hockey players are physical and on occasion will engage in fisticuffs (fighting). A stick to the helmet occurs, but is rarely intentional. Hockey players understand that if they can’t control themselves from violently hurting another player, they WILL get hurt themselves. There are codes of conduct besides the rules that hockey players enforce. The fans, however, know that the referees and teammates will stop players from hurting fans. Hopefully this fan is thrown in jail.

Funny thing is, I cannot tell the difference between an ultra violent hockey game and your standard Muslim meet-and-greet. Well, that’s not completely fair, no one actually lost a head at the hockey game, so I guess it’s less violent after all.
