Erie Otters goaltender Troy Timpano got a little carried away on Sunday night.

Following his team's 4-3 loss to the Windsor Spitfires in the Memorial Cup final, the 19-year-old hurled his stick at a cameraman who was capturing shots of the defeated Otters bench.

Obviously realizing what he'd done, Timpano penned an apology for the incident after the game.

"I'd like to apologize for my postgame incident with the cameraman passing by our bench," Timpano posted on his Twitter feed. "My emotions got the better of me and I regret my reaction towards the camera. Certainly, not in my character to do something like this. Again, my sincere apologies."

Timpano is coming off his fourth year in the league and remains eligible to return to the Otters next season, where the quest to capture the Memorial Cup will begin again.
