You're Gonna Eat that Koho!

Seeing the next clip made me think of this Herb Brook's comment.

I don't know anything more about this clip other than Maxim Laperierre is one gritty, hard-nosed, you-love-him-on-team-hate-him-on-the-other team, kind of guy (I personally love the guy because, like the Wild's Cal Clutterbuck, he wears his heart on his sleeve.

Officiating Crew:

Refs -Mike Leggo #3 and Tim Peel #20
Lines - Tony Sericolo (#84 - YES, OUR BOY, AN AMERICAN!) and Pierre Racicot #65
TEACHABLE MOMENT: When shenanigans break out on the ice, the linsemen should always get the original combatants. You will see instances where linesmen will try to get 'everybody' involved, and I think that is a natural instinct because you are there to "put out fires". DON'T DO THAT. Notice how well Sericolo and Racicot stay with the original combatants = CLUTCH!!
