In the heat of the moment, hockey can get…a little aggressive to say the least.
A video recently emerged of a youth hockey game getting out of control, kicking a player in the head with his skate in a scrum.
At the seventeenth point of the video, Player #27 kicks a falling soccer player and later punches him repeatedly.
Good hockey.
These children are 12 years old.Watch #27 in white. Knocked down, gets up and lands a soccer kick to the player being knocked down, then puts in some ground and pound. pic.twitter.com/3IQyjS7ZMB

“Good hockey” is not shown in this video. Even though they are only 12 years old, it is bad for the sport. It has no place anywhere at all. Then, these kids need to be taught a lesson about this being unacceptable.
Referees are also blamed for letting things get out of hand.
Hockey players, let’s be and do better.
