O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00	May 4, 2001 TORONTO (AP) -- A photographer was grabbed by the neck and shoved by Pat Quinn, general manager and coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs, while he was photographing Tie Domi en route to an NHL disciplinary hearing Friday. Quinn grabbed the photographer and shoved him twice as he was entering an elevator of the NHL offices near the Air Canada Centre. Domi was on his way to a hearing called by the league into his elbow smash to the head of New Jersey defenseman Scott Niedermayer late in the Leafs' 3-1 victory over the Devils Thursday night. ``I was walking backward shooting Tie Domi,'' Toronto Sun photographer Stan Behal said. ``I followed him going into the elevator. ``I didn't realize that Pat Quinn and Ken Dryden were with him. ``Then, all of a sudden, there was a hand around my neck and I got shoved back. Quinn said, `Get out of my way.''' Asked to describe the force of the contact with his neck, Behal said, ``It was significant.'' The moment was captured on video by cameramen. Behal notified Sun management. He said he was hoping for an apology from Quinn. A Leafs spokesman said later Quinn had left for the airport and a flight to New Jersey and would not be available for comment Friday. An NHL spokesman said the league was looking into the matter. ``The league is certainly aware of the incident,'' Gary Meagher, the NHL's vice president of public relations, said.
