How many penalties in Hockey? But isn't hitting and ramming allowed?
Posted by tiziani
I remember that dodgy call weeks back, when some guy shoved another into the boards, they fight and the refs give them both penalties. 2 or 3 mins inside a box for getting shoved, like what?lmao
too many checking probably does get by but Im glad refs let them play since there are not a thousand penalties to worry about
It is refreshing for me to watch, coming from (European) football because here - quite literally, no exaggeration - if one player even raises a hand to lightly slap another player's face that is an automatic red card, sending off, play the rest of the game for ten men.
And of course you have to put up with the other player rolling around like he's been shot, to make sure the refs see it.

lmao the acting does happen in hockey these days not as much as a couple years ago.
I think in 2008 a bunch of hockey players watched the world cup and tried to get in on the action

Geez. What would get someone yellow carded then? I think that's a level down?
these were the days when hockey was real
and even the goalies fought
and the days when my boys were one of the best team in the league and not the worst :,(

There are a lot of possible infractions in hockey but only a dozen get called regularly
You can hit as long as youre not targeting the head or putting excessive force or hitting a player that cannot protect themselves in that instant

What match was it a few weeks ago where dude got checked into the boards and knocked out.. and both teams duked it out while on top of him and kicking him in the head?
I dont remember i feel like the devils versus someone

It's a culture clash I can't explain, how great it was for me to watch at firstOne ice hockey player was delivering rabbit punches to the back of another dude's head
If you did that here, he would be condemned with moral outrage in the paper's tomorrow, branded a thug and a lengthy spell away from the game
Over there, the ice hockey refs: "(scratches chin) well maybe we should give him THREE minutes in the box instead of two..."
And that's it. Mind. Blown.
lmaoooo I bet
I wish football had playoffs I think I would be more excited by it
even the MLS playoffs are subpar after the knock out round cuz I hate these stupid 2 leg things

We have the domestic cup competitions all season-long but it's true no team really cares because there's not as much money for winning the cups as there is the league.
The Champions' League (group stage that turns into knockout cup format from Feb onwards) is the pinnacle of football. Even better than the World Cup. It has all the money, tradition and history... everyone wants to win it. That's a close to the playoffs atmosphere we have.

Ah yeah I forget about the Champions league
I have to remember to include that and watch if I can

Kyrgios blowing a two set lead in his own country against a guy he outranks (facepalm)It was betting on tennis that brought those dark days in 09
That seemed rough for Kyrgios

I just read the commentary without seeing the match, and it sounds like he gave up mid-game and stopped playing as usual. The Kyrgios quitter special.

I watched it but only paid attention off and on
idk either guy but something did seem to happen mid way with him
He did battle last set at least lol

He quits when it's not going his way. He's known for giving up and making it blatant he's not playing. Just a brat.
Unfortunately his biggest claim to fame looks like it will always be the time he told Stan Wawrinka live on court over the mic that one guy in the locker room had been banging Wawrinka's ex on tour. He's a brat.

Lol it'd be a straight heel move if Kyrgios could take what he dishes out, but that's most Aussies for you. They can never take what they give out. He'd be whining if anyone ever did the same to him.

Not that I know of. Wawrinka made a big drama about it and got him suspended... most people just let Kyrgios beat himself to a loss. Waste of a talent, he has bags of it.

well if he gives up a lot i guess no need to stoop low against him

I can't speak for the KC/Pitts game, but the rest have been observations through the years.
