NHL Linesman Gets Sucker Punched During A Massive Fight
During Saturday's game, Detroit Red Wings' Ben Chiarot found himself in a tough spot, visibly frustrated in the first period.
Chiarot's emotions boiled over as he targeted Buffalo Sabres forward Jordan Greenway, with linesman Ben O'Quinn intervening to prevent potential escalation.
Amidst the Red Wings' seven-game losing streak and trailing 1-0, Chiarot's frustration reached a tipping point. Following a stoppage in play, he directed his ire towards Greenway, ready to engage in a physical altercation. Despite Greenway's nonchalant response, Chiarot attempted to initiate a fight.
Surprisingly, no penalties were assessed for the altercation, leaving Chiarot's frustration unresolved as the game progressed.
