Crosschecks to the face - okay
Crosschecks from behind - okay
double crosschecks from two different players - okay
I am sure there are countless other types of crosschecks, but all playoffs long I've watched and accepted it because it was the same for both teams. Basically its lacrosse rules out there. Seeing Toews get the double to the back in game 2 from two different Bruins in rapid succession was the kicker. I don't even like Toews, but its ridiculous! What has become of hockey officiating?

Crosschecking the ref is ok, too. Don't forget about that one.

I never considered it, but I assure you that the only ref to call it would be the one who got hit (assuming he could still align his jaws enough to blow)meow wrote:Crosschecking the ref is ok, too. Don't forget about that one.
