During their Saturday night game against the St. Louis Blues, Chicago Blackhawks forward Ryan Donato lost his cool and embarrassed himself in front of the entire crowd.

The Chicago Blackhawks were the second team eliminated from the NHL playoffs race, not long after the early but expected fallout of the San Jose Sharks.
The St. Louis Blues, on the other hand, have reinvigorated their game in the latter part of the season, not only keeping their Western Conference Wild Card race hopes alive, but sitting comfortably in its' second spot.
With a real chance to make the postseason, the Blues are undoubtedly expected to fight harder, but one Chicago forward thought one St. Louis defenseman went way too hard.
During their Saturday Night game, Blackhawks forward Ryan Donato had control of the puck, but Blues defenseman Cam Fowler came from behind and wrapped the flat end of his stick in front of him.
This caused Donato to fall down, giving Fowler control of the puck, and no penalty had been drawn, angering him enough to lose his cool.
In his fit of rage, the 28-year-old forward smashed his stick near his team's bench, falling down on the ice in front of the crowd and embarrassing himself in the process.
With it being the last game against his hometown, what should have been a sweet game of gratitude for Patrick Maroon became an awkward temper tantrum watch party and predictable 1-4 loss to the Blues.
Though they are already out of making the playoffs, hopefully Ryan Donato's impulsive explosion was one of one, and not a pattern to see in Chicago's games ahead.
