Flyers Coach Punches Own Player In Head

Philly coach Peter Laviolette shows off some great intensity here during a timeout in a game against the Hurricanes. He must be a student of the Mike Keenan Coaching Academy.

Down 0-2 to the ‘Canes in the first period, Laviolette is pumping up his team and makes a punch at one of his players. The punch bounces off Ville Leino’s helmet who just acts like it’s not big deal.

Maybe this is normal behavior? Maybe Pete is just an abusive coach…. It might explain why the team has some many IR reports with the “Fell down the stairs” excuse….
