"Vancouver Canucks forward Rick Rypien has been suspended, pending a hearing, as a result of becoming involved in an altercation with a fan during NHL Game #76 last night in Minnesota. The incident took place at 13:38 of the second period." Source: http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=541088
[video=youtube;_2VEw1sYjSI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2VEw1sYjSI[/video] It sounds like it's going to be a whopper. 12 games minimum right now... could be more. The NHL can't have that, and are going to try and make an example of the situation. Fans first.
Whoever ejected the fans should get fired... This is something I don't really see much of, maybe add some cover for fans right there? Hope Rypien gets nailed with a fine and suspension.
I don't mind,his actions are his fault. Probably a suspension around the lines of 15 games. The fans didn't get ejected,they actually got closer seats(front row) in the game after the incident,lol.
