Did anybody get a look at that Hanson penalty? It was bad enough to have called that dopey penaltyin the old days, clutching and grabbing was allowed, which slowed the game down a lot. The game is much
faster now, and players must keep their sticks to themselves, and not hooking on the hands of a player.
And, yes, those hooking calls do get annoying, but I wouldn't change that for the rides players use to get
while hooked onto a player in front of them, and that also slowed the play.
Keep hands to yourself, not on another player, which slows the play. The skating in todays hockey is
better than ever, the game is fast, free flowing, players are bigger, hits are harder because of more
speed.
If one sits and watches old classic hockey, it is slow compared to todays game.
What I don't like in the game today, is 'STAGED' fights, they are tacky, roller derby, wrestling
type acting, which cheapens the game, a good spontaneous fight is understandable, but even those
have to be limited.
but the NHL foolish forces had to give hanson a supension. Hanson is probably the cleanest player
in the NHL.
I watched the video about 19 times and I decided that Hanson was batting at the puck.Did anybody get a look at that Hanson penalty? It was bad enough to have called that dopey penalty

If Hanson was your player, would you have wanted him to try to put the puck in a place
advantagis to his team mates or should he have just let the puck fall wherever it fell.
