Ok so last night there was a Division 2 game on and it was full checking (most of the other games are non-contact) and there were people that made some hits and took some hits. But when someone would go to hit them, they would take it personally. C’mon man that’s hockey for you. If you don’t want to be hit, don’t play in this league. You can’t expect not to be hit if you are dishing it out to everyone. Playing in the adults league I learnt something, If you want to give hits, expect them back twice as hard. And at the end of the game, don’t go on about it because after all, it’s just hockey. There is no need to slash someones stick after the final whistle, and if you do that, expect a retaliation.

And once everything is over, talk about it not fight them off the ice because what happens on the ice, stays on the ice.
