The fact that he had to be pepper-sprayed, that it escalated to that point, says a lot about how out of control the situation got.
Let's not forget, the Capitals had just been eliminated by the Carolina Hurricanes, literally hours before Alexeyev's arrest.
Details will follow in this case, but Alexeyev is clearly in hot water right now.
