Evan Paul was playing his second game in net for the North Vancouver Wolf Pack when a fight erupted in the third period of his team's Jan. 25 game against the Richmond Sockeyes at Minoru Arena.

Video of the fight shows Richmond defenceman Eithan Grishin over top of Paul with his arms around the goaltender for close to 20 seconds. When Grishin lets go, Paul slumps to the ice.

Grishin, 19, was (previously) suspended 16 games for incidents earlier this season, according to the PJHL website.

On Nov. 16, he received a 13-game suspension — five games for harassment of an official, three games as supplemental discipline, two games after receiving a game misconduct for being the third man in a fight, and three games as supplemental discipline for being a repeat offender.

Why shit like this doesn't instantly result in criminal assault charges is beyond my comprehension.

Esp since he had the goalie in a hold straight out of the UFC.

Hope he gets the boot from hockey altogether. He has no right to be playing any contact sport.
