The QMJHL is up in arms after the goalie “incident.” Incident is putting it lightly. Quebec Remparts goalie Jonathan Roy put on quite the spectacular show that now has media up in arms demanding that fighting be banned from junior hockey. In the second period, Remparts losing 7-1 to the Chicoutimi Sagueneens in a playoff sitch. Naturally, a brawl breaks out. The Sagueneen goalie was shit talking Roy, as happens when you are bludgeoning your opponent and salting their wounds. Roy, ain’t going down like that;

Which bring us to the clip of the fight. Despite being en Francais, I think we all know just what is going on.

Personally, I understand why Roy snapped. Hockey isn’t some sport that is leisurely. He was in a playoff situation and frankly snapped. He could have been mad at his teammates for bad defense. By the second period, Roy was probably drained and tired of being taunted. I wasn’t even there. But I can guess this much happened because this tends to be the case. Roy is suspended 7 games and fined $500. A few Remparts are suspended as well. One receiving a two gamer and the other a three gamer. I have not looked in the see if any Segueneens are suspended as well.

I can understand the need to crack down on violence in hockey. But it’s a sport that requires it to police itself. You have boys that are “defense men” and their job is to enforce and regulate when necessary. How are they to compete at a professional level where fighting is more accepted? They need some practice to compete to Derek Boogaards of NHL.

I have seen some pretty brutal fights from the Chiefs. The first two that stand out is the one the Donaghy smashes his hand in. The second is the one where Letts busted someone’s face the resulted in blood on the ice the refs tried to clean up. They were not fined or suspended. If anything, I think Roy had a bit more reason to react the way he did.
