100% my fault. Dumb and young. He walked up to me and Linesman Leon Stickle who I had befriended on the trip. Billy went to shake my hand and I pulled it on him. I then said that’s for not shaking hands after 82 playoff OT series ending. Nice Billy turned into game time psycho Billy. Being in a crowded bar we were swallowed by a mass of men taking sides. Luckily Leon was an expert at breaking up such nonsense. I was an ass but I didn’t anticipate Billy going code red. Leon gave me a dressing down, but then had a big laugh when I explained my failed/ignorant logic.

Edit: I was told after by my brother that current Isles and Pens players joined the scrum and took sides. I can't remember who, but it ended up in a scrum of probably a dozen men and I was under ground zero of the humanity.

Damn that's an amazing story. Thanks for sharing
