You have to have control of your stick at all times!!!

[/ QUOTE ]

The rule state that a high stick will NOT be called on a follow through...... This is because the opposing player is skating into the stick....

If memory serves me right this happened a few years ago when Roy was clearing a puck out from behind the net and hit a player in the face and NO penalty was called because of this rule.....

Re: Official Boston Bruins thread

Dude, the refs are being hard this year man. What do you guys think about making the visor mandatory? I think you are going to see it soon. Maybe not with the older vets but with the youngons. I am all for it for safety reasons. But I guess why alot of players don't like it is because it blocks their periferial(sp) vision confused.gif. I don't know. I don't play the game so maybe someone else can answer that!

I'm back guys. I am usually away every weekend, I head up to the lake. wink.gif That was an awesome game though, the Bruins played pretty good eventhough they lost. The first I saw of it it was 2-0 Ottawa, then I had to go out and the truck stopped on me. crazy.gif Thankfully I'm a mechanic, got underneath made sure all the connections for the new fuel pump that another shop put in were tight.... they weren't, the ding-bats didn't plug the main wire into the sending unit all the way in. crazy.gifmad.gif So I got everything back together on the side of the road in pitch black, and drove back to the lake. It was then 4-0 Ottawa, and I was able to watch the rest of the game. cool.gif
