From Jeff Marek at CBC,
Well, by now we’ve all seen the video of Patrick Roy’s son Jonathan attacking Chicoutimi netminder Bobby Nadeau. If you haven’t seen the clip yet, have a look. QMJHL commissioner Gilles Courteau will rule on the incident sometime Tuesday.
We all have our opinion on the incident itself. It appears that Patrick Roy motioned to his son to skate down the ice and attack the other goalie, who wanted no part of the encounter as is evidenced by the video.
I can never condone that.
more... plus Marek’s thoughts on Patrick Roy’s future as an NHL coach, perhaps of the Avalanche

Only a coward attacks an unwilling combatant. Period.
I am a big fan of hockey fights, however they must be willing combatants. There may be legal implications as well.
