A video has emerged recently from a Russian Jr. hockey league, showing a player 2-hand a player on the opposing team in the back of the head, quite brutally and seemingly unprovoked.

HOLY SH!T - Russian junior hockey 😱

Arseni Borisenko two-hand chops Ivan Suvorov in the back of the head.

Borisenko was tossed. Suvorov needed help off the ice by his teammates.

It's a bit unclear if Jr. league in Russia has the same meaning as Jr. league in North America, as the players in the video are all wearing cages and seem much younger than the 16-20 age for Jr. players in Canada.

We can only hope that the young player hit is okay, and the the player who did the 2-hand is able to see the error of his actions and learn to control his temper.
