Seems a bit more than just grabbing a guy by the mouth guard, and of course the shove in the back as the player was walking away seemed superfluous. I get that Lake was pissed; he had good reason to be. But it also meets the definition of assault (technically, I guess, battery). Is it a firing offense in and of itself? Probably not, but it’s the sort of thing that if you are already on the hot seat is not going to help you retain your job. It is not, as they say, “a good look”
