Re: Hockey Day Minnesota - Denver @ Minnesota 2/12/11
Great point.
NCAA, I believe.
Theoretically, IMO, it encourages rougher penalties. If you're gonna take a guy down, then you're gonna do anything you can to have him not score. Before, you might simply trip him or something, but now you might as well tackle the bejeezus out of him, since you're committing a penalty anyway.
Great point.
