Instead of taking his toys -- in this case, the sticks -- and going home, an unhappy hockey coach decided to throw the sticks.
Six of them, in fact.
Junior coach Eric Veilleux melted down the other day after an official explained a call to him at the bench and skated away. Veilleux is in charge of molding the minds of the impressionable youth at Baie-Comeau Drakkar, a team in the Quebec Major Junior League.
He threw the six sticks, yelled and gestured, and thankfully, nothing else landed on the ice. He was later suspended for two games and fined $1,000.
The Big Lead posted video of the meltdown. Here is another offering, above, from the French-language TV network RDS (via the uploadedcancon), lending another comic view.
