Rick Rypien Assaults Fan

PrintBy now you've seen and heard the commotion. Rick Rypien, after being pulled off of Brad Staubitz in a pathetic attempt to motivate the Vancouver Canucks, tussled with linesman Don Henderson, initiating contact, then jumping at a fan in the stands who was sarcastically clapping at him.
Well, as it turns out, looking at the video it certainly looks like it was a kid who drew the ire of the Canucks fighter.
So, what do you think? Does that look like a father protecting his child? Does it add to the already lengthy punishment that should be coming down from Colin Campbell?
Remember, Ron Artest got 73 games for attacking a fan. If it turns out that it is a child, Rypien needs to miss the rest of the season. No question about it.
ADDED:
"There's boundaries that should never be crossed. We're in our area of work," Malhotra said. "We're all for the hooting and hollering and supporting your team and saying whatever is tasteful. But as soon as you cross that line and want to become physical with a player then we have to make sure we take care of ourselves. ... We have no idea of what their intentions are."
Has Manny Malhotra lost his mind? Watch the replay again. Malhotra is staring right at the fans. At no point did the fans reach over the boundary or "cross the line". At no point, until Rypien reaches up and over the wall and grabs the young man, do the fans make contact with Rypien. Unreal.

Totally looked like he went after the kid. Wow. Congrats Rick, you’re now about to be compared to Ron Artest…

I thought he looked late teens/maybe early 20s. Young, but there’s a difference between assaulting an 8 year old and an18 year old.

If it’s a kid he went after, he should be suspended for the rest of the season. Either way, it should be at least 10 games for that.

He’ll probably get even more than that. That’s just a dumb thing to do no matter what the fan said.

Who cares if its a kid or not, he should be suspended the rest of the season regardless. You don’t go after a fan no matter how big of a dick they are.

before that, wasnt Rypien the one who grabbed an official on the ice? Isnt that suspension worthy too?

Does it matter if it was a kid or not?
The person was sarcastically clapping, a farcry from verbal or physical taunting that you may have seen with other fan vs player confrontations. Get Rick out of there, that was classless and dumb.

I think he should get a couple of game suspension maybe 5 at max not this 21 game crap that people are voting for. I am from MN and am a Wild fan but don;t think it should be a major suspension but 5 games Max plus a fine, I saw it and it looked like the kid or teen or whatever he is was leaning over a little bit and clapping and trying to make him more pissed off, which he successfully did. The kid was not injured nor did Rypien really do anything really bad besides grab him and jerk him. I mean if he had Jerked the dude out of his seat and or did something else like punch him or throw something at him which caused the dude to fall or get injured or something then yeah a long suspension might be in order but you need to realize or at least IMHO the dude was asking for it. At first on TV it looked worse but then looking at these videos it looked like the kid was leaning or clapping more towards Rypien.
Thanks for the rationality. My fave post here!
Why the guy would want to poke at an obviously seething player is beyond me.
Almost as much as wondering why the rink is open there anyhow.
Most rinks do not allow such open access to the opposing bench.
I voted 5 over at NM, but would not be surprised with between that and 10.
And that was an adult.
But of course I agree with everyone else. You just cannot do that. But it was a far cry from Ron Artest…unless I missed the part where Rypien punched the guy in the head multiple times.

Personally, if Doan got 3 games, NH and Wiz got 2...
I see no real reason why Ryp should get more than 5-10 games… the thing is though is that he attacked a customer, assaulted a guy who wasn’t consenting (I say this because players who receive big hits know full well the risks before partaking in the game. This fan did not come into the game expecting to get assaulted) I think the only reason people are calling for 20+ games is because of Artest.

I don’t know I just think they’re calling for 20 games + becuase they hate Vancouver and if they can vote 20 + games they will since I know Minnesotans hate Vancouver alot especially when Bertuzzi was with the team.
I think people are voting 20+ games because the idiot assaulted a fan. A fan. Let’s be clear on this. A fan. This is worse than Chris Simon hacking a guy in the head. This is worse than one player doing anything to another player short of killing them. You simply cannot attack a fan.
I would care if the guy played for Dallas, Florida, Vancouver, or Chicago. He truly deserves to be booted from the league, but that won’t happen because Colin Campbell is a sissy.
I think you can take your “It’s because he plays for Vancouver” BS and shove it. And that’s the nice version of what I’d like to say.

Rule #17: You may not impersonate representatives of Hockey Wilderness and handout NHL themed wrist bands.
I’m sorry but I’m kind of offeneded by the quote, “This is worse than one player doing anything to another player short of killing them.” What Rypien did was disturbingly out of control, wreckless, and wrong. you don’t much as brush up against a fan unless it’s for say, a high five. He deserves a long suspension, he possibly (and may very well) deserves to lose his NHL career unless he gets some anger management training, it’s an embarrassment not just to fans of Rypien’s team, but fans of the league.
With that being said, while athletes know to expect that “anything can happen” in a way fans should never have to, the fan that got grabbed had no physical damage done to him. When he wakes up tomorrow, his life will go on as normal, probably with a few calls from media. The NHL and professional sports in general are full of people who are not so lucky. Victims of cheap shots, sucker punches and dirty hits have lost their careers and in some cases, lost phyiscal and mental abilities that will never return.
Ask Steve Moore what he’d prefer, having his neck broken by a Todd Bertuzzi sucker punch in a game or his shirt pulled by Mick Jagger at a Rolling Stones concert. Hell, ask a fan what they’d prefer in that situation. Tell Marc Savard that his concussion induced severe depression and light sensitivity, which made him unable to watch a hockey game, much less play one, pale in comparison to what Rypien did.
Again, I don’t want to appear to be defending Rypien. His was a sickening act that violated the relationship fans have with entertainers. But it is not on the level of countless athletes that have had their lives forever changed by illegal plays that are often more premeditated than what occured last night. To say otherwise cheapens their suffering.
Rick Rypien not equal Mick Jagger by the way ;) haha

I am sorry you feel that way. No offense was intended. However, I was not comparing the suffering of Marc Savard to what Rypien did in terms of suffering of the victim. I was comparing the two in terms of the punishment that needs to be doled out by the league. I have more than once call for Bertuzzi to have a life time ban not only from the NHL, but from all hockey related functions, including being able to own a pair of skates. Bertuzzi attempted to kill Steve Moore. So that is a bad example on your part.
The suffering of Savard is something he accepted as a risk when he entered the game. Despite the fact that it is deplorable, and should have been an illegal hit, the fact is that at the time, it was not an illegal hit. Sickening, completely unnecessary, and completely within the rules of the game. I do not wish for suffering for Mr. Savard, but he knew the risks were there. The fan last night did not assume for a second he was going to be attacked by a player.
The point of that line was to put emphasis on just how clear the line needs to be for players attacking fans. It was not intended to reduce the importance of the suffering of anyone else. That is your interpretation of my words, and you are reading way more into it than was expressed.

no “wild fan, hate canucks” involved. If it was Burrows you could accuse me of that but I have no dislike/hate of Rypien. My belief that he should be out for the season is based on his actions alone.

I think this might be the last straw for him. Management has tried to distance themselves from all things douche.
I really like the guy and would like to see him get his shit in order…but can’t defend this one.
Still I say 10 games and mandated behavioral counselling. Could be more…fine…just what my gut says.

I expected to side with the plaeyr but....
I have seen so many psychotic fans, and not just in hockey games that I really expected to click on the video and see the fan doing something to instigate, but I really didn’t catch that impression when I watched.
I am not a fan nor a detractor of either team. I like the Coyotes and the Avs. I kind of understand that fighters would have a hard time calming down after an on-ice altercation, but I don’t think Rypien will have a very good case. I appreciate Malhotra sticking his neck out to defend a teammate in the press, hopefully he won’t be catching any collateral PR damage. But as far as Rypien goes I think his suspension will be in the 20-25 game range.
I really have mixed feelings about it. Certainly the action is unjustifiable, but I guess that I wish the barrier between the players and the fans had been such that this type of contact was not possible.
I wish we lived in a society where we did not have to take such efforts to segregate professional players from fans, but I am not going to hold my breath.

I have a feeling the kid clapping had to have said something like “nice job (expletive of choice)” or “way to go (expletive),” but even still, you don’t go after him for it.
This is going to get very interesting.

I believe Malhotra is right.. IF a fan crosses the line I believe the player has a right to protect himself and I won’t feel one ounce of sorrow for that fan. BUT, clearly that was not the case. Rypien attacked the fan with at most a verbal provocation. That is unacceptable. As far as I’m concerned he should be done for the season

I don’t think he (the fan) crossed a line. It’s all on Rypien. Now he has to face the music.

the fan did not cross the line in this instance. I’m just saying in general If a fan “jumps the railing” so to speak, he deserves what he gets

This is where I think it goes way too over the top. He grabbed his sweater. Didn’t hit him, shiv him, defecate on his wife…
But…he made unprovoked (beaking off and gestures don’t count for me) contact with a fan. Immediately suspendable. All that’s left to haggle about is how many games.

That’s definitely an major overreaction. He’d deserve to be banned for life if he started cracking the fan over the head with his stick. For grabbing a fan’s sweater and shoving him, definitely a suspension, but I’d go with 10-15 games or so.
For comparison, baseball’s JC Romero reportedly shoved a fan after a game last year after that fan taunted him, and I don’t think he was even suspended. There wasn’t the video evidence like there is here, but I think most people would agree this is hardly Malice at the Palace territory.
I don't think it really matters how many games Rypien gets...
Because he’s probably done in Vancouver anyway. I believe he’s easily replaceable, but then again I don’t know him as well as Nucks fans do. Plus, I can’t imagine a team getting too excited about acquiring him for a while.

I agree. Look at Leblond and what happened with him in NJ, he tries jumping a Caps rookie, gets suspended and then gets demoted to Albany in favor of Adam Mair. The same thing’s probably going to happen IMO (after Rypien’s suspension of course).

Done for the season.
Players have to learn they need to keep their cool and control themselves. Kid was clapping, that’s it. You can see he was telling the other players he didn’t say anything and didn’t want any kind of altercation. He didn’t look like he was taunting Rypien in any way, unless you’re saying clapping is a form of taunting.
Agree with most people, there’s a line you don’t cross and he crossed it and should be punished accordingly.
Is Rypien an absolute nutter?
Before he left the ice, on the Canucks broadcast it looks like about three of his teammates and one linesman have to hold him along the boards just to get him to calm down. Seriously.
What a tool. This league has a long history of employing them, but people with zero self-control really don’t deserve the privilege of being on a hockey rink.
Lighthouse Hockey: You say that like Streit and Okposo and Schremp and Bailey were important.
5-10 games max.
A-The Todd Bertuzzi Theorem (You can pretty much attempt to kill a man as long as you don’t use your stick) along with the Wheel of Justice will hold true.
B-If you’re a Canucks fan and think in any way this kid did anything to provoke what happens: YOU. ARE. A. FUCKING. IDIOT. and I hope you go play in traffic.

No fist made. No attempt at any sort of punch. Didnt spit on the guy. Didn’t slap him.
Suspend him, sure. But all of you “Wild fan homers” calling for his head are dumber than Rypien. If a Wild fan GRABBED a Canuck fan, you’d be defending whoever it should be, saying it was no big deal and sweep it under the rug.
