Fights don’t do that, the refs do
If the rules don’t allow them to protect players then they need to be changed
The NHL’s problem is that refs are there to keep the games tied so it’s more fun to watch but that issue doesn’t exist here
No they don't. Refs can't deal with intent, only result.
At the speed of hockey, there are a ton of actually accidental contacts that occur. I got hit two days ago in a no-hitting league, and both of us know it was a complete accident because neither of us could stop in time.
That's exactly why I said refs can't tell the difference between someone making an intentional bad hit and someone who just didn't quite turn out out of the way in time because they didn't notice early enough.
There should be no incidental contact in your example
As per the example the two of you were going too fast, that wouldn’t happen if the threat of being removed from the league over accidental contact existed
That wouldn't be hockey anymore.
And if soccer was played on a pitch then it wouldn’t be soccer anymore
How big of a crowd are your no contact rec leagues getting?
If the players want to play hard why are they in a no contact league?
You just sound like an idiot
Oh you’re one of those people that everyone hates
Chill out during your games
Sure you don’t want me to insult you
Don’t go skating hard in no contact leagues because you are filled with weak skaters
Go into a contact league if you’re playing hard
You still never defended your claim about spectators at these games
