snova4 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I don't question that, and I also don't pretend to know the rules very well. But just because Drake flipped and came down on his head doesn't automatically mean it's a game hit, does it? A good hip check will do that, and it wasn't a blind side hit or Drake would not have jumped to avoid the check. But like I say, I don't know the rules. Important thing is that he's ok. How about the fact that the puck was no where near Drake when the hit took place? Does that change the game misconduct side of it? If Drake has the puck, and instead of hip checking him off the puck, the defense goes low and takes out his legs, yes, I could see the argument where that was a 5 and not a game misconduct. But, Drake didn't have the puck, was behind the play, and Moore still went low on possibly the smallest guy on the ice. Dirty, dirty hit that needed a game misconduct, and supplemental discipline. Moore shouldn't be playing in DU's next series. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that he did not have the puck is a good point, and it seems like a more important factor than the hit itself, and that might deserve a game or more. But it's more of this "finishing your checks" stuff that I've always had some problem with. Drake had just touched the puck shortly before that, and guys get run all the time after they have lost contact with the puck. I'm not justifying it--more hits should get called that fall under finishing checks, IMO. Would that check have been a minor if Drake had still been carrying the puck? Honest question--I don't know.

Popular Post sprig Posted February 15, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2015 The check was low, which constitutes the "clipping" call, which is a major 5 minute penalty, the game misconduct is at the referees discretion. Since Moore "targeted" Drake low and away from the puck, it's clearly a cheap shot imo, and should have resulted in a game misco. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feff Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I just noticed the headlock a DU player has on Pogs and he tackles him during that play too. Haha. There has to be something that can be done. This is terrible officiating. Now that you point it how, good gods that was blatant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exact hit, and the same call plus the game misco. As you said, a higher hip check in this case (on Seguin) would have been totally legal, as the puck was there. The NHL referee got it right, the NCHC crew, did not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my point. And STILL has the NHL in a buxz because it's a dirty hit. This has nothing to do with "finish your check", it has everything to do with "don't hit a player below the knees". Spearing, kneeing, clipping...all cheap shots in hockey. All of those should be five and a game. Every time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clipping (defined as hitting below the knees) is not only dangerous, but a cheap/dirty hit and often results in injury to the hit player. With the puck or without, this should be five and a game. The fact that it was without tells me there was intent to injure on Moore's part, even more reason to toss him from the game. The ref's totally blew the call.

AZSIOUX Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 If drake lays there and milks it they eject the du clown not even questioned. You'll see teams do that a lot these days. Piss poor calls on the non goals as well. Du hockey is lucky as hell and they know it to get some points. Outplayed and went dirty again like Paukavich. If you would like to fill that little arena someday just schedule the sioux a few weekends a year. UND can play their neutral non conf games at magness. Fans could help selling seats and concessions for once. Title will come down to UND @ Miami to close season. Thought pattyn would go radke/vossberg. Moore will get his someday soon if he keeps those hits up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheap hit vs cheap hit and another du one . Thats my Angle. Moore shouldn't have been playing that's the main point and many many rules have changed on many levels of hockey to try and prevent this garbage last 10 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drake had him lined up shortly after and barely missed down in the corner on the boards. He was coming in hot and Moore for sure had the head on swivel.

GDPritch Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 How could there be intent to blow the whistle when the puck was never stopped? The rebound went out to OD, he shot it in the net. The only time the puck stopped was when it was in the net.$1M question from a not so great hockey mind; intent to blow the whistle for what reason? Was the ref about to call a penalty, did he lose sight of the puck,...? Did they give an official reason as to why there "was intent to blow the whistle"? There had to be a reason unless it's an outright lie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnt Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I guess when you say clipping, I understand it in the context of cheap shots, but I also enjoy the lost art of the Curtis Murphy, Glen Klotz hip check, which many times turns players head over heels. It isn't easy to get below the knees and stay on your skates. Now if you submarine someone with the sole intention of taking out their knees, it should be a major and game automatically.
