Now, don’t get me wrong; the Minnesota Wild were not innocent in the whole affair. Adam Lowry caught Joel Eriksson Ek with an elbow pretty much immediately following Jets player, Andrew Copp copping a hit into the stanchion.
That and there had certainly been a big hit on Lowry earlier away from the puck that went unnoticed by the officials. He’d have been riled up, that’s for sure.
Either way, Adam Lowry and the Winnipeg Jets, in general, are starting to get a bit of a reputation for being a little bit dirty.
