The discontent was felt on the ice, but it wasn’t rosy in the stands either.
It’s reminiscent of the event involving George Floyd a few years ago in Minnesota…
Why is this dipshit security guard at the Scotiabank Arena viciously kneeing a Leafs fan in the head until he’s bleeding, while he’s already restrained?
Is this the level of abusive treatment by security that fans should expect at NHL games? pic.twitter.com/dW5qxoUWEZ

Toronto police and Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) are currently investigating the case, but according to a fan on the scene, the victim was intoxicated by alcohol and apparently wanted to get through a door reserved for VIP members.
Even if the story is true, there’s no reason to use such violence. The poor man was bleeding and some fans even defended him.
Even the video’s creator gave his explanation on the Reddit platform.

As another user mentioned, “there’s no reason to use such violence on someone holding a child”.
Now the question is: how much is he going to ask the Leafs organization for in compensation? The man should receive a handsome sum…
