Book those tee times
Amerks winger Matej Pekar provided some on-ice hilarity with 7:25, after drawing a penalty for the second time in the third period.
As a scrum was broken up and Pekar headed to the Amerks bench, Sokolov kept yapping. Pekar turned and, using his stick like a golf club, imitated a teeing off motion.
That’s perhaps why the third-year winger draws the ire of opponents.
“He’s an agitant,” Appert said. “He did a good job drawing penalties. He did a good job keeping his cool and goading them into punching him in the face. The power play was good early but it wasn’t good enough late when we got those opportunities.”
