Viktor does not often see the inside of the penalty box. He'll hold his ground like an (undersized) ox, but the dude doesn't even see it as a real option to ever do anything but follow the rules. Ice rink or out in the real world, it doesn't matter—boring ass Hargreeves is going to follow them to the letter. But in the event that he does find himself in the penalty box, which has absolutely happened on several occasions, Viktor spends the entire time stewing in disappointment at himself. It doesn't matter if he wasn't even the one who tripped/kicked/grabbed/licked the other player in the first place. While the home crowd jeers at the refs and their terrible call, Viktor stresses over potentially causing the opposing team to score in his absence, which means they might also win, which means Viktor played a part in it. Will he ever let on that he's a spiral-er? No, but he also doesn't realize that anyone with eyeballs probably already knows.
