Mike Ribeiro punches Andrew Shaw in face on bench (Video)

Nashville Predators center Mike Ribeiro punched Chicago Blackhawks center Andrew Shaw square in the face as Shaw sat on the bench during the final minutes of Sunday's Game 3 of their Western Conference first round playoff series.

The punch was apparent retaliation for Shaw grabbing Ribeiro's right arm as he battled for the puck with Jonathan Toews near the Blackhawks bench.

Amazingly, no penalty was called on the play, which makes you wonder what the referees were looking at.

H/T FTW.
