Bronco coach looses it

[Scout]

The Swift Current Bronco's head coach, Dean Chynoweth, received a bench minor,10 min.misconduct, a gross misconduct and a game misconduct in tonight's match up against Kootney. The Kootney goalie ( Glass ) hammered a Bronco player with his blocker. The Bronco player fell to the ice looking dazed and not moving. Glass then went down and continued to hammer the Bronco player with his blocker. A melee broke out with the players on the ice. Glass then skated to the red line and removed his mask and gloves and challenged The Bronco goalie.

After everything cooled down, Glass only got 2 min. for roughing. Cheynoweth then proceeded to tell the ref that Glass should get more than a 2 min. for knocking out The Bronco player and starting the whole melee. The ref gave Dean a 2 min.bench minor. Dean then went balistic throwing water bottles at the ref. He then received 10,a game and a gross misconduct. The fans then proceeded to throw bottles and debris at the ref and Glass. R.C.M.P. were called in at the end of the game to escort the ref. out.

Ouch. Based on the description, Glass should have been tossed.

Add in a linesman getting dumped to the ice during a melee in Calgary, and the league offices are going to have a lot of video and reports to review this weekend.

I see Michael busto got a major-game for high sticking during that melee, and that there were uneven fighting majors - suggesting someone just beat the crap out of an unresisting opponent.

You figure there will be other suspensions out of this, beyond Chynoweth and possibly Glass?

I saw that! Wow I am sure that will come with a few games in the old press box, that was ugly.

I didn't get to listen to the game, but from what i see on boards so far, there will be alot of talk.

and some league stuff too i guess.

From what I heard, the ref let the game get out of hand. Glass should have been tossed.

I interviewed Dean last month, he seemed pretty calm and relaxed guy then, so glasses actions must have warranted Chyner to lose his marbles.

Hopefully Glass gets lit up by the Canes on Sunday night.

Can't wait to watch my home town Ice face my new hometown Canes....should be a great game.

Dean Chynoweth doesn't usually come across as a coach who would lose it like that. Now if it was Sutter we were talking about then look out! He must have been tremendously upset with the decisions of the ref in this incident. A 2 minute penalty in the circumstances does sound way too leniant if Glass did as reported. Interesting to see what the league does about this.

Not going to make any excuses for Jeff Glass , but from what I have been hearing around here is that the player that he gave the ol bunter face wash was the guy that took out his brother who plays for the Tigers, (aparently with a cheap shot) Now blood runs deep and he probably wanted a bit of revenge for him. I also heard that the two of them were beeking it up with each other prior to that so who knows what might have been said. Probably deserved more than 2 minutes but I am glad to see him stick up for his Brother.

It doesn't surprise me that Dean lost it. If you ever saw him out there on the ice you know he was the type of guy that would be capable of that.
