AZSIOUX Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 Slap shot I actually respectfully disagree, I think in the NHL the Refs don't call the CFB very often or not as often as in college. I can remember many nights saying damn that was checking from behind penalty. Also, in the NHL if you do the things to goalies that are done in college people would be getting ass kicked. I have seen a lot of fights and scrums around the net in the NHL. i have the nhl package and see teams getting into little scrums everynight when the other player comes near the goalie. all the time. penalties are hardly called and the defensive team usually gets some free cracks on the opponent for doing that. if you are gona come in by the net you should prepared to get whacked a few times Quote
Slap Shot Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 You guys might be right and I'm just not noticing that it happens (CFB and net scrums) just as much in the NHL but for some reason I've got the impression. Quote

In hockey that Kitchen is in front of the net in the crease. If you don't want to get hit don't go into the kitchen. Quote
