It was Happy Gilmore who once took off his skate and tried to stab somebody when he played junior hockey, but it’s a different ass clown who recently left the ice in handcuffs after his antics.
According to CBS Sports, a 21-year-old Canadian junior hockey player allegedly spat in the face of a referee during a recent game, which eventually led to him getting tackled by officials and later arrested by local police while he was still on the ice.
Olivier Marcotte plays for the Sherbrooke Hockey-Experts of the Junior AA league in Quebec. Well, maybe we should say he played for them, as odds are it will be a while before he sees the ice again after “tussling with a linesman” during a game last week and later leaving the ice in handcuffs:

It’s too bad Marcotte doesn’t play football, as odds are he would have been signed by the Dallas Cowboys after the incident and likely named a starter for next season.
