Player who Broke Ref's Arm Gets His Punishment While Waiting for Hearing
Casper Gillberg, the player involved in the major incident, has been suspended until his hearing.
"You can't do that.
Vita Hästen player Casper Gillberg checks the referee into the boards. Ref broke his arm on the play.
Suspended until hearing.
Gillberg suspended 9 games earlier in the season for an illegal check to the head.
Gillberg listed on EP as 6'5 227 lbs."
The ref will likely miss several weeks for that injury, and it would be nothing but fair to see the player suspended until the ref's healthy again.
Details and updates will follow.
