There is plenty of aftermath from the
Bokondji Imama/Kelly Bent incident. Via John Moore, here’s reaction from Bent,
Imama, Mooseheads assistant coach Jim Midgley and Sea Dogs general manager
Darrell Young.
Young is definitely supporting Imama.
BACKING UP IMAMA
There’s been plenty of reaction from
former players supporting what Imama did.
Former Sea Dogs forward Justice Dundas, now a member of the University of Windsor Lancers, took to Twitter last night to express his thoughts on the incident.
20 year old supposed "tough
guy" chasing and jumping a 15 year old, absolute mockery and flat out
embarrassing.No class/respect for the game

Respect and support @bokojr defending a
teammate. Gotta hold people accountable when they break unwritten rules. Hockey
needs more like him.
