Ref Pukes On Ice, Delays Penguins-Lightning Game

Referee Mike Leggo caused a delay during Penguins-Lightning when he puked on the ice during the first period.

Bile and the mumps: a crust punk band name, or the NHL season in four words? We've had a rash of puking on the playing surface it seems recently, and referee Mike Leggo tossed his cookies hat into the ring last night. Leggo puked all over the ice midway through the first period of Penguins-Lightning and actually caused a delay as some poor, poor soul had to clean up the chunky vomit from the ice. Leggo left the game due to illness and the crew carried on as a three-man operation.
