Arizona Coyotes defenceman Troy Stecher is known for being a very calm and respectful defenceman. Stecher plays the game hard, clean and is very sportsmen like. That was until the game this past weekend vs the Anaheim Ducks.
Out of no where Troy Stecher would want to rip Anaheim Ducks star Trevor Zegras apart, obviously causing a major scrum. We didn't know at the time, but what ever Zegras said clearly set off Stecher.
There were reports that Zegras crossed the line bringing up Stecher's deceased father during a scrum. Stecher at the time lost it and understandably so. However, it appears Zegras didn't mention Stecher's father. Hockey Insider Craig Morgan would confirm this.
Still crossing the line, no one should bring up another player's wife, this goes way beyond gamesmanship and Zegras definitely owes Stecher an apology, I can't wait to see the next time these teams play stay tuned..
