Austin Watson was caught on a hot mic dropping a curse word toward an opponent on Thursday night.
The Buffalo Sabres beat Watson’s Ottawa Senators 4-1 in the game. A few minutes in, Watson was heading off the ice. His words, which seemed to be directed at Jeff Skinner, were caught by a nearby microphone and shared on the telecast.
“You little pipsqueak, shut the f— up!” Watson could be heard saying.
Here is the video, but beware of the curse word.
"you little pip squeak! shut the f*ck up!"

Watson and Skinner had been going at it throughout their shift, so that carried on as Watson exited the ice.
