Hockey player strikes opponent's head with stick snapping it in two
It's not every day you witness such a troubling scene at a kids' hockey game. In Russia, a shocking incident unfolded when one young player swung his stick over his opponent's head, snapping it in two.
The situation escalated when the victim retaliated by hurling the broken stick blade back at his aggressor, sparking a scuffle. Despite the chaos, it seemed the officials were slow to intervene.
RUSSIAN LUMBERJACK 🪓
➡️ Player two-hand chops his opponent over the head and breaks his stick.
➡️ Kid retaliates and throws the broken stick at him.
➡️ Tries to fight him. Gets his helmet off and chucks it over the glass.
THEY ARE 12 YEARS OLD.
The motive behind the altercation remains unclear, as does any disciplinary action taken. Remarkably, the player struck by the stick managed to stay on his feet after such a forceful blow. It's a disturbing reminder of the need for sportsmanship and safety at all levels of the game.
