Nonsense in the handshake line always bothers me Being that this is a youth hockey coach -someone charged with helping to shaping young minds and being a role model these seems especially offensive. What a douche.

What could he possibly be that mad about? Cause his team lost? Sad sad thing.

The only thing that would make sense is if this guy was his sensei....

That's the example youth players are given. 30 years from now something like this will happen. Probably even worse. A lot of parents talk the talk, but in the heat of the battle, they fail to show kids how one should conduct themselves regardless of the situation.

The thing is, that coach's team won!

I was fortunate enough to have some great people as coaches in the various sports I played as a kid. I There has always been a percentage of coaches that are poor examples and it seems like that percentage grows with each passing year.

My guess is the kid deserved to get smacked. And the coach was an absolute fool for being the one to do it.

What I mean is the coach obviously was "getting even," based on the way he pointed back at the kid, so I presume the kid was a prick on the ice. But it just doesn't matter how bad the kid was, because that's part of what growing up is about, to learn how to ignore the insignificant distractions we all come across.

That seems a bit excessive.

And yet drunk drivers stay on the road after 4,5,6 DUI/OUI convictions. Some great legal system we have in this country.

When did you move to Canada? This happened in BC. Speaking of DUI and Canada, they have been refusing entry to more and more people at the border based on DUIs.

Forgot the original story was in Canada. My vitriole at the American justice system still stands.

This is because the driving standard in Canada is bad enough without letting drunk Americans in...
