Must see: NHL goalie hooks rookie player in the face with his stick.

There's no excuse for this kind of action.

On Tuesday night Los Angeles Kings goaltender Peter Budaj let his frustration get the best of him and that resulted in an unprovoked attack on New Jersey Devils rookie forward Miles Wood.

Budaj appeared to put his stick right on or right under the chin of Wood before yanking it back towards himself, causing Wood's face to jerk back and leaving him asking the on-ice officials why there wasn't a call on the play. 

It's an ugly play from Budaj, especially when delivered to so young and inexperienced a player, and one has to wonder if the NHL will be having a look at this,
