If he was wearing a suit it was most likely a Screening Manager.

(please note that this comment applies to snarky, obnoxious TSA "supervisors" who make such comments and not to all TSA employees. Though it could also apply to TSA "leadership" and select TSA employees too.)

Thats pretty disturbing, especially coming from a TSA goon in a suit.

Sometimes forwards have to fight too.

You didn't hear about Patrick Roy's son Jonathan?

An excerpt from ESPN.com:

Hall of Famer Patrick Roy was coaching behind the bench when his son, a goalie with the Quebec Remparts, skated across the rink during a junior game in March 2008 to pummel an opposing goalie.

Oh, there have been some great goalie fights, Roy vs. Osgood being up there for me.

Only problem is someone has to serve all those penalty minutes for the goalie... And crossing the red line is a 2 min misconduct on top of any other penalties, though a 10 min misconduct can be assessed for crossing the red line to fight the other goalie + other penalties.
