The rest of the rules are good to know obviously, but penalties are pretty intuitive overall: - You can't run into the goalie when he's trying to make a save.
- You can't grab a hold of a guy and pull him down.
- You can't whack a guy in the hands to make him lose control of his stick.
- You can't trip a guy.
Football, baseball, etc. have their merits in the regular season. No question. But nothing beats playoff hockey. It's the best of all sports in my opinion. |
Thank you for the info.
