I, for one, did not understand, and had to look at the IIHF rulebook (fyi I play the game. although at the amateur level )Doug a écrit :Still amazed to see how many people are actually unaware of the rules over here I mean a lot of fellas started booing when a guy from Davos sent the puck on his own bench. I don't get why you were expecting a penalty on that call! Drives me crazy! It's like the only arena where I've seen so many people complaining for nothing and it's even more pathetic when you think that most of them never played the game..
Well here it is:
official IIHF rulebook a écrit :Rule 135 ii - No penalty will be assessed if a player shoots the puck directly over
the boards at the players’ benches but not over the protective glass
behind the players’ benches.
