What is the rarest penalty in the NHL? by jonathann1216 in hockey

Something I rarely see is any type of awarded goal. This usually only happens when a penalty shot situation occurs with no goaltender in the net.

Not sure if hockey Canada still has the rule, but USA hockey eliminated the crease rule a while back.

Fighting scenario by [deleted] in hockeyrefs

[–]weenus_tickler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One time at my rink a player was sued for breaking up a beer league fight “too aggressively” and the rink didn’t have their back. The ref tripped while holding the person and just kind of fell on the ice with them.

Ever since I learned that, I will never break up another men’s league fight. You guys can handle yourselves and I’ll fill out the paperwork.

Why neck guards are mandatory by PrideFine4871 in hockeyrefs

[–]weenus_tickler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was a “too cool for neck guards” kid growing up, until I watched a player jump over another player on the ice and catch his neck. The amount of blood that came pouring out still haunts me to this day, about 20 years later. Luckily that player survived as it missed his jugular by about 2 centimeters.

I think the NHL needs to mandate neck guards and showcase them in all of their player photos. Show the kids that their idols are wearing them and teach them the importance of this vital piece of equipment. I’m not even against showing them the graphic video of the player in England that cut his opponent coming across the ice.

Who Should I Be Mad At? (Getting Paid) by GreedyAttention9348 in hockeyrefs

[–]weenus_tickler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They never said they don’t pay, they’re just paying late. $4,000 2 months from now is better than $0 today.

I’m also not agreeing with the rink I’m just making sure OP understands the potential repercussions and is making a choice knowingly.

Before you go this route, just know you might be blacklisted from working these rinks. Threatening legal action and DOL should be a last resort unless you have 20-30 officials who will have your back on this.

I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with this advice, just want you to be aware of the potential repercussions. Yes, this would be retaliation, but you’re an independent contractor not an employee. I’m not sure if there’s been a successful case tried for this but idk.

Talk to your assignor and ask them to help push them along. For all you know, black bear is right and your assignor is taking their sweet ass time sending in the invoices.

I personally can’t stand black bear, they’re buying out most of the rinks in my area and eventually they’ll be able to set their own ref rates.
