Don’t Rob Hockey Players

Here's a story out of the Vancouver suburbs that gave me a huge laugh:

A 42 year old man learned the hard way overnight not to mess with pick up hockey players.

A group of players wrapping up a game at the Richmond Ice Centre about midnight discovered a man going through their hockey bags.

He tried to run off, but wasn't fast enough for these part-time athletes.

When he kept struggling to get out of their grasp, they hog-tied him with hockey tape until police arrived.

When the suspect was searched, all they found on him was a stolen Blackberry and he was released with a warning. Apparently getting hog-tied was enough.

No word on whether they used black or white tape.

    Heh, I hope that after they tied him up with hockey tape, they gave him a Briere spear to the groin… or perhaps stuffed his head in a bag of hockey gear — perhaps an even harsher punishment than the spearing.
