VIDEO: Predators' Ribeiro punches Blackhawks' Shaw in face on bench
David Banks / Reuters
Nashville Predators forward Mike Ribeiro let his emotions get the better of him late in the club's Game 3 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks.
Ribeiro found himself up against the Blackhawks' bench late in Chicago's 4-2 win, and he took out his frustration with a punch to the face of forward Andrew Shaw, who appeared to be holding Ribeiro.
Ribeiro wasn't penalized for the incident, but he was assessed a holding minor with 43 seconds left that effectively killed Nashville's chances of making a late comeback.
