A pair of hot-headed pro hockey players dropped the gloves inside their Greenwich Village apartment early Sunday, beating up an acquaintance in a spat over a four-figure club tab, cops and police sources told The Post.

Sonny Milano, a forward with the Columbus Blue Jackets, and A.J. Greer, a winger for the Colorado Avalanche, were arrested around 6:30 a.m. for the dust-up inside the West Houston Street apartment that began when their victim purportedly tried to upcharge them for a night out at 1 Oak, sources said.

Milano and Greer — along with a male roommate, his pal and at least one other person — hit the trendy Chelsea nightclub early Sunday on the promise that the roomie’s buddy could snag them table service for $1,200, sources said.

But when the group took their party back to the West Houston apartment near Sullivan Street, the roommate’s pal told the NHLers that their tab actually came to $2,300, according to sources.

Milano, 23, and Greer, 22, refused to cough up more than their previously agreed-upon share of $600 a pop, and the dispute turned physical, sources said.

The 28-year-old victim was left with jaw and rib pain, as well as injuries to his neck and bicep, authorities said.

He declined to head to the hospital but called the cops, who led Milano and Greer to the penalty box.

They were charged with misdemeanor assault at the Sixth Precinct station house and then cut loose with tickets to appear in court in September.

While the skaters refused comment as they both left the cop shop and returned to their apartment, the father of Long Island-native Milano admitted the brawl happened — but insisted to The Post that it had nothing to do with money.

“It wasn’t over a bill,” said the man outside the family’s Massapequa home, refusing to give his name but identifying himself as Milano’s dad. “The guy was getting rowdy in their apartment.

“They asked him to leave and he wouldn’t. That’s it,” he said, adding that his son “is a good kid.”

While Milano has mostly kept his nose clean on the ice, amassing only 10 penalty minutes across parts of four seasons in the pros, Greer is a self-professed enforcer.

“I’m a big body out there, and I have to disturb people to get under their skin,” the 6-foot-3, 210-pound Quebec native told The Denver Post in 2017. “It’s my job, and I play better when I’m able to get under their skin.”

Both players are restricted free agents, but Milano netted $832,500 last season, while Greer pulled down $750,000, according to the sports-contract site Capology.com.

Their respective teams said in statements that they were aware of the allegations but would withhold further comment pending an ongoing investigation.
