Really disappointed with mannys comments. The boy clearly did nothing but clap. Was Rypien protecting himself from the excessive air from the fans clapping. Unlike Dominic squirting a Guy with a water bottle this is very different. Rypien was in a state of rage pushing the ref and had bad intentions with a 14-16 year old. I really think the league needs to smack him hard on this one. That dude was in a bad place mentally with some serious tunnel vision. Would like to see a minimum of 5 games hoping for more. He's getting paid to play and if he can't take a fan clapping at him he needs to gtfo of the league. Who knows he may try to kill a Philly fan for heckling him.

Got to imagine knowing Vancouver fans love of Americans the kid deserved it for looking at him and being American. So much for that good Alberta boy.
