'The guy that got dropped like a bucket of balls in a pond. Not my finest moment, I know. Looks real bad.' Ogilvie then offered up an apology to Tarnasky for starting the fight. 'A ll jokes aside, guys, I'd like to apologize to all the folks on the course, anyone caught up in it and anyone who had to deal with me that day. I lost my cool and I learned from it. Just one of those days where you should have kept the cart on the path,' he said. Ogilvie concluded his 49-second message by telling viewers, 'Stay hydrated, keep your stick on the ice, maybe stick to 18.' Hockey fans praised Ogilvie for owning up to his mistake of being the aggressor. 'Taking it on the chin is a lost art these days. Respect,' one person wrote on X, with another adding, 'This is the most manned up thing I've seen in a long time. Props for standing tall and admitting your mistake.'

The thrashing racked up millions of views after eagle-eyed NHL fans identified Ogilvie's opponent as likely being Tarnasky. When Tarnasky warns him, 'You're not scaring anybody,' Ogilvie becomes more agitated, hurling his sunglasses on the ground, ripping off his gloves and yelling, 'Let's f—in' go, man. Ho, ho, ho,' before charging the former enforcer. Tarnasky immediately sends him flying into a nearby pond, which should have been the end of it. But a soaked Ogilvie staggers out of the water and tries to square up with the ex-NHLer again, only to be laid out by five punches to the noggin that were punctuated by Tarnasky yelling out 'bang' after each blow. 'Enough! Enough! Get out!' Tarnasky, who coaches an under-17 team, screams as he chucks the dazed gasbag into the grass a final time. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Ogilvie eventually stumbles away, clearly not realizing who he had run up against. During his 13 years as a pro hockey player, which included 245 NHL games with Tampa Bay and Florida, Tarnasky racked up 297 penalty minutes fighting tough guys like Tanner Glass, Aaron Asham, Zenon Konopka and Milan Lucic.
