San Jose Sharks’ coach David Quinn has been fined $25,000 for conduct demeaning the officials that resulted in a game misconduct during NHL Game No. 993 on Saturday, Mar. 4, an 8-3 loss to the Washington Capitals, the National Hockey League announced today.

Quinn was livid at the officials after a clipping penalty was called on right-wing Kevin Labanc against Washington defenseman Vinny Iorio 5:45 into the third period.

The fine money goes to the NHL Foundation.

    That was an epic meltdown. Give him a gray goatee and it coulda been Torts. They may have taken most of the physical shenanigans out of hockey, but we still have coach meltdowns to keep us entertained

    $25,000.00 fine isn’t going to hurt coach earning few hundred thousand for doing his job! If a ref doesn’t “catch” an incident where player is injured with all the camera angles in broadcast & not to mention fans recording photos or videos,I don’t blame him for being “pissed” off. The NHL is watching every game how do you miss anything in this day & age?
    Iam sure owner will cover cost being coach was standing up for team.
