My brother is a defenseman in the NHL and we went to a game last month to watch him play. There was my mom, my dad, and my brother's girlfriend. It was exciting we were in the middle of the second period and the score was tied 3 all. My brother was coming out of the other teams end skating ahead of one of the other team's forwards when all of a sudden the other player stuck his stick between my brother's legs from behind and speared him right in the balls.
The world stopped as I watched Davey crumble to the ice curled up in the fetal position holding his groin. That bastard from the other team just skated by as if nothing happened. The crowd erupted in anger and the ref looked back and saw Davey writhing on the ice holding his groin. There was no penalty called and his teammates didn't see what happened. It was terrible watching Davey on the ice surrounded by his teammates and the trainer. The team doctor scampered to Davey and they all huddled as he rocked back and forth on his side in pain.
That rotten son of a bitch that speared him was sitting on his team bench as if he had nothing to do with it. The refs huddled by the time keeper's bench at center ice discussing what the hell happened. none of them saw what happened. They didn't see it but I found out later they knew what happened and who did it. All three of them looked at the other team's bench at that smug bastard. They knew but there wasn't anything they could do as they explained it to Daye's coach who was furious. You could hear him swearing at the refs from across the rink.
Eventually Davey was able to get off the ice with help from his teammates and the trainers. His teammates were furious and they were discussing what they were going to do about it. Everyone knew who speared Davey. That rotten bastard had a history of spearing players from behind,. In fact he had done the same thing to a player from another team two weeks ago and he got away with it then too.
The crowd booed and voiced their displeasure at the refs for not calling a penalty. There should have been an unsportsmanlike penalty, an attempt to injure, a game misconduct and a multi game suspension. Instead there wasn't a fucking thing called.
My parents were furious, my dad wanted to go down a kill the son of a bitch. Davey's girlfriend was in tears. The crowd started throwing stuff at the other team's bench even though they were the home team. The only good thing that came out of it was someone hit the bastard in the head with a beer bottle.
Because of the anger of the crowd and the danger that the home team was in the game was stopped and the remaining time was to be added to the third period while security and the police settled the crowd down. We all went down to the players bench and inquired how was Davey doing. One of his teammates that was sitting out of the game saw us and he came out to let us know that Davey was on route to the hospital to be checked out. His was in extreme pain and there was a lot of swelling in his balls.
He also told us that the team was going to forget about the game, when the third period starts they were all going head hunting for the fucking prick that did this to Davey. His teammates were disgusted, sick and simply out of their mind with anger. The coach knew what was going to happen and he didn't say anything, he was going to stand back and let the players take care of business.
