Matt Petgrave, a former Laval Rocket who unintentionally hit Adam Johnson in the neck, is facing serious threats on social media

There was a true tragedy in the hockey world this past weekend. Adam Johnson, a former player for the Pittsburgh Penguins, passed away from his wounds sustained in an EIHL game from a skateblade strike.

Matt Petgrave, who dealt the final blow, is in the news. The latter, who, incidentally, had already appeared on the Laval Rocket roster in 2018, is the target of multiple grave allegations on social media.

We feel obligated to Johnson and his family to show them our respect by refraining from sharing the horrifying footage of the tragedy. It should be noted, though, that many people claim Petgrave kicked Johnson during the event.
