Paul Fixter, the head coach of the Ontario Hockey League's Sudbury Wolves, was very frustrated following his team's 7-2 blowout loss in Sault Ste. Marie on Wednesday. His team now drops to 1-10 on the season.
Fixter showed a lot of anger during the postgame interview, which led to him cursing out a reporter, yelling "Fuck you!" to him.
Here's how the dialogue went, via Yahoo Sports:
Ruicci: "Didn't you think a factor was the high skill that they [the Greyhounds] have?"
Fixter: "They're a very skilled team, Peter, yes."
Ruicci: "Did you think the work ethic was— "
Fixter: "Whose? Theirs or ours!"
Ruicci: "Yours. I thought you guys worked hard."
Fixter (nodding): "Good. That's good."
Ruicci: "Well, I don't know..."
Fixter: "Well, that's your opinion. We worked hard. There you go. Good for you." (raising voice) "What's the question?"
Ruicci (also raising voice): "Did you work hard?"
Fixter: "F--- you! Don't f------ talk to me like that!"
Ruicci: "How do you think you're acting towards us? All we're doing is trying to do an interview."
Fixter: "Then ask me a question."
Ruicci: "Did you work hard?"
Fixter: "Yeah, for 20 minutes, like I said to Lincoln [Loutitt, a CTV Northern Ontario reporter who asked the first questions of the media scrum]."
