Terrified hockey player immediately regrets messing with a bigger man

We’ve all made mistakes in life. Perhaps it’s the love left unrequited, the message that was never sent, ordering one too many orders of spring rolls. Finland’s Antti Pihlström made his own mistake over the weekend -- he messed with a much, much larger man.
Germany and Finland played over the weekend and a near-fight broke out when Pihlström was thrown to the ground by Korbinian Holzer. Life note: Never, ever mess with a dude named “Holzer,” even as a joke. So when Pihlström was upset that he was outmuscled he decided to get some revenge by cross-checking Holzer into the boards head-first. The German was not pleased. Pihlström realized this a few seconds after the check.
Holzer decided not to deck his opponent, which was probably a good thing. Poor dude was terrified.
