Slovak Hack Martin Marincin's dirty hit on Team USA's Jason Zucker
I dare someone to defend the play of Slovak defenseman Martin Marincin... There is no excuse for this kind of play in the WJC or in level of hockey. Personally, I thought that the Slovak WJC team played very dirty hockey from the drop of the first puck till the end of the game the Slovak defenseman Martin Marincin should be suspended for the rest of the tourney for this bush league hit. The Slovak hockey team is lucky that fighting isn't allowed in the WJC.

The Code works.
This is a perfect example of the code working in professional hockey. L.A. King Dustin Brown lays a dirty hit on Dallas Star's forward Mike Ribeiro. Brenden Morrow exception to this dirty hit and comes to the aid of his teammate. The response to the hit is Brenden Morrow fights Dustin Brown. The incident is over and Brown pays for his objectionable act.
The league could have suspended Brendan Morrow for one game for getting an instigator penalty and into a fight with under five minutes to play in a game. The league made the right decision and decided that it would not suspend Morrow because of Brown's dirty hit on Ribeiro.
Here is the rule as defined by the Dallas News
Rules state that instigating a fight in the final five minutes carries an automatic one-game suspension and a $10,000 fine to the coach. The rule was implemented to deter coaches from sending out goons to administer frontier justice. The league rescinds such penalties if it is determined they were within the "spirit of the game."

Come on Peltier show us your "halo"...
Here is a perfect example of Classic Gopher Homerism
On Monday, coach Don Lucia talked to his players about Saturday’s penalty- and fight-filled game. He called the time he spent on the subject “good learning and teaching moments.”
At the end of overtime, Darcy Zajac of the Fighting Sioux cross-checked R.J. Anderson in the back. That prompted Tony Lucia, the coach’s son, to go after Zajac and he eventually wrestled him to the ice. As expected, the crowd cheered.
Both Tony Lucia and Zajac were given game disqualifications, meaning they will miss their team’s next game. For Tony Lucia, that means Friday’s game at Denver.
“I don’t condone fighting,” Don Lucia said when asked about the incident. “But at the same time sometimes you have to come to your teammates’ defense. I don’t ever want to be part of a a program or team that starts anything but sometimes you have to stand up for your teammates on the rink.”
Is that what your son did? “Yes, I think so,” dad replied.
“There was a situation earlier in the game where Derek [Peltier] was involved that we had a bunch of teammates standing and watching two, three guys on [Peltier]. You just can’t — you have to come to a teammate’s aid.”
Peltier said he and his teammates did not start Saturday’s trouble. “We were not really trying to get involved,” he said. “We got dragged into the situation a little bit. But you’ve got to stick up for your players. You don’t want to get pushed around, especialy in your own barn. So I think we were just sticking up for ourselves and sticking up for our teammates.”
Peltier said he would like to see North Dakota again in the playoffs. “That would be awesome,” he said. “We owe them a little bit.”
First off this is the biggest piece of bravo sierra I have read in a long time. Talk about wearing maroon and gold goggles. Let’s break it down again; Peltier hits Trupp with what I would call a questionable hit, then the little halo falls on top of Trupp and starts cross checking him/punching him, of course Trupp is going to defend himself. Notice that the Sioux players come to the aid of the own while the Gophers stand around. That says a lot about the character of their team.
As far as the Sioux meeting the Goofs again, bring it on. I am sure most of us would love to see a Bickel vs. Finley dance at center ice.

Is there a bigger hack than Steve Downie?
In the latest Downine caper; hack Steve Downie claws/scratches David Clarkson in a fight the other night. The first gutless move by Downie was that he left his face shield on during the fight, that should an automatic 2 minute minor, second Clarkson but you also gougne Clarkson with your finger nails. It would be an understatement to say that Downie is a piece of work. Good to see Clarkson get in a couple of good shots.

Flyers Hack Cote the Next one to sit.
I wonder if anyone else is getting bored with the Flyer's and their dirty antics? I am beginning to believe that these suspensions are not an accident and if there is another incident like these the Flyers will be writing a check to the league office. One could make the argument that the Broad street Bullies are back. I don't think it is a stretch to ask the question; are the Flyer's are a dirty team? Their actions on the ice seem to reflect that theme. The Flyers have had their fair share of suspensions this season (5). Every week it seems like the NHL is reviewing a new incident committed by a Flyer's player.
TORONTO- Philadelphia Flyers hack/forward Riley Cote has been suspended for three games, without pay, as a result of being assessed a match penalty for attempt to injure during NHL game #376 against the Dallas Stars Dec. 1, the National Hockey League announced today.
Cote was assessed a match penalty for elbowing Dallas defenseman and former UMD Bull Dog Matt Niskanen at 17:46 of the third period.
Under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement, and based on his average annual salary, Cote will forfeit $8,021.40. The money goes to the Players’ Emergency Assistance Fund.
Cote will miss Philadelphia's next three games -- Dec. 5 at Minnesota, Dec. 7 at Colorado and Dec. 11 vs. Pittsburgh. He will be eligible to return Dec. 13 vs. Montreal.
Flyer's Wall of Shame
First it started out with super hack Steve Downey's dirty hit on Dean McAmmond.
Lets not forget Jesse Boulerice's vicious crosscheck on Canucks player Ryan Kesler.
Randy Jones hit on Patrice Bergeron, Patrice is yet to return back to the Bruins line up.
Scott Hartnell's dirty hit on Boston Bruins Defenseman Andrew Alberts
