From the Trib:
The costs of the monitor’s attendance at the games is to be paid by the Armstrong High School River Hawks hockey club.
• A disciplinary hearing will be held for determination of supplemental disciplinary measures.
whoa would you look at that, the football players that were ringleaders get to play their playoff game tomorrow yet the club hockey team that isn’t funded by the school has to pay for repercussions for those players. cool.

Crickets after the disciplinary hearing last night. Anyone hear anything at all?
Really makes you wonder if anything will be done to not announce anything with all the attention this story has
you really didn’t give it much time. people are being suspended from school and we can’t have a students at any middle/high school game for the rest of the year and siblings have to be sitting with a parents.

Armstrong scored 5 goals in the third. Hmmm? I guess the bullying and abuse worked. They should have to forfeit that win. If someone calls the ref an a hole or swears, they are thrown out of the rink, but it is okay to call a young girl a whore and a hooker. I truly hope it is addressed properly. Also, I think Armstrong has a female goalie in their organization, what does she think. Just sad it got further than the first chant.
i’ve said the same thing. 4 goals against the goalie AFTER the derogatory chants started. it was “heifer” not hooker and “heifer king” not “suck my dick” but doesn’t matter after the whore chant.

So the goalie can hear the chanting as she was brought to tears during the game........but the Armstrong players can't hear it?
Stop bro, just stop. YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.
it’s very different on the ice. in the first and third the players could hear it when lined up for the face off in the offensive zone, but from the bench it was across the rink and players were focused on other things and the same thing goes for when they are playing, as a hockey player we tend to tune out the crowd and it’s something that ends up being learned as you play longer.

I wasn't at the game. I'm not really sure where the blame should lie,maybe not in one place, but a learning opportunity for all, but the fact that it is being addressed and hopefully NEVER should happen to any player gives me hope. I am very blessed that our daughter gets her tough skin from her dad.
i reached out to her on instagram if you would like to pass the information on. i feel horrible that this happened and i’m trying to make it right as someone who did not participate in the derogatory chants. hope you guys played well at the game tonight.

I'm having trouble seeing the videos.
If you would like to email them to hockeybehavior@gmail.com I will put them on youtube
it’s on the news, olympians have spoke about it. let’s hold off on further spread until there is proper disciplinary action and local identification.

Absolutely disgusting display from Armstrong fans last night at the Belmont complex. Mars has a female goaltender, last night chants coming from the student section of "she's a wh*re", references to tampons, and sexual harassment all took place. The officials, as well as Armstrong board members, sat back and let this happen and did nothing. Not a single spectator thrown out. How this can happen is beyond me. Mars goalie was in tears during the ice cut, visible even in the stands across the ice. Unfathomable that this was allowed to happen and nothing was done and it was allowed to continue the entire game. Chants are heard plain as day on the livebarn feed, as well As on the broadcast on boxcast.tv, these officials Zmenkowski and Trego should absolutely be reprimanded for allowing this to occur.
as someone who was at that game, and also wishes to stay unknown despite not joining the derogatory and unsportsmanlike chants, i can confirm it was not the entire student section. there was a select few who would start it and few that would join but at LEAST 60% of the people or students in that corner were not participating in the sexist remarks and rightfully believe they do not deserve to be in the game nor expected them when we walked in that door. i can speak on behalf of the majority that were silent during these moments and say we are very embarrassed and cannot believe it got that far, i myself even attempted to message the goalie on instagram apologizing for those who were audible. we deserve to be punished and the referees reprimanded in some sort, but i do ask to understand that most of us, ESPECIALLY those who play hockey away from the team on the ice, recognized that it was ridiculous.

yea, and honestly i understand that (let’s say) the NHL punishes the team (Caps and the bracelets or the Wings with octopi at one point) but these are kids. some are seniors that may never play competitively after this season. it wasn’t the teams fault and honestly as much as i hate that i can’t go to any more games especially since i decided to not play varsity this year but it’s the safe call.
