Then again Virtanen is just a kid who tried and failed. The real blame is on the coaches. They're the guys that should know better.

Is it the coach's fault when you're on the PP and the ref is calling the other team for another penalty, which would give you a 5 on 3 in a one-goal game, and one of your players hooks a guy when the play is going to be blown down the moment the kid touches the puck anyway?
The coaches deserve a lot of blame. But that is 100% on the kid. Possibly the single most unaware, idiotic play I have ever seen at this level of hockey.
