Game
Wolf Pack vs Canucks
Details
In the 3rd period, while already leading 5-0, a Wolf Pack player makes an aggressive play for a puck being collected by a defenseman. The Wolf Pack player appears to lift the stick of the Canucks defenseman, knocking the Canucks player off balance and onto the ice. The Canucks player inadvertently takes the Wolf Pack player down with them. While on the ice, the Wolf Pack player does not maintain control of their stick and hits the Canucks player on the helmet.
All players are reminded the ARL has a 5-goal spread maximum. There is no excuse for aggressive play, at anytime, but even more so when leading by such a wide margin.
Result
A Wolf Pack player received a 1-game suspension.
