A retired teacher, former minor hockey coach and former hockey scout for the NHL Buffalo Sabres weighs in on the Greg Walsh/racial slur incident in the Peterborough Examiner.
Interesting that the author once pulled a kids' team from a game because they were getting roughed up and coming to the bench crying. Pleas to the referees to bring the novice all stars vs. peewees game under control fell on deaf ears so the coach/author pulled his kids. He was suspended for a year by minor hockey.
What would you have done if you were the coach in a dangerous mismatch of teams? What would you do if you were coaching a game in which a racial slur went unpenalized?
