CHICAGO, Nov. 7 (UPI) -- Winnipeg Jets player Adam Pardy said he doesn't have any hard feelings toward the fans who took his helmet and poured beer on his head in Chicago.

Pardy was sent through the glass Wednesday at United Center during the third period of the Blackhawks' 4-1 victory over the Jets and he said unruly fans took his helmet and poured beer on his head, the Chicago Tribune reported Thursday.

"I definitely smelled a little booze for about six minutes," Pardy said. "I guess somebody reached around [and took the helmet]. I don't know what happened to my stick, either -- that got lost in the crowd too. A little insult to injury there. It was tough enough to get put through the glass but then to get a beer thrown on my head, too, was not a good thing."

Pardy, who eventually got his helmet back, said he doesn't have any hard feelings toward the fans.

"They're into it," he said. "I mean, that's a good thing, I guess."
