The Chicago Blackhawks currently sit 31st in the NHL Standings, It has been unquestionably a long season in Chicago, the losses have piled up and it has definitely been tough on the players on the team. Last night that long season finally came to a head for Alex Stalock.

During the 3rd period of last night's game between the Blackhawks and Dallas Stars, Luke Glendenning scored a short handed goal to give his team a 3-1 lead. After the puck enters the net Glendenning collides with Stalock, who is outside of the blue ice. The collision sent Stalock to the ice, in what appears to be an exaggerated flop.
After the collision Stalock was absolutely furious with the official, who deemed that Stalock hadn't been interfered with. As play continued at no point did Stalock let things go and he continued to jaw at the referee, until the referee had finally had enough and called him for unsportsmanlike conduct.
If that wasn't enough Stalock spent the entire TV timeout staring down the referee in an attempt to intimidate the official.
That was when the official finally had enough and ejected Stalock from the game sending him to the showers early.
