Ben Bishop punches Lemieux right in the face with his blocker.
That can't feel good.

The fans in Winnipeg and the Winnipeg Jets were none too happy about the fact that they somehow walked away with offsetting penalties on this sequence.
On Thursday night Winnipeg Jets forward Brendan Lemieux was the victim of a completely unprovoked sucker punch from Dallas Stars goaltender Ben Bishop, something that Lemieux unsurprisingly did not appreciate.
A brief scuffle ensued after the play but surprisingly the player who was immediately escorted over to the penalty box was Lemieux himself, presumably given a minor penalty for getting punched in the face.
You don't need to be a fan of the Winnipeg Jets to appreciate why those in attendance felt that their player got a raw deal on this play.
