hocckey77 0 Report post Posted February 24, 2006 I highly doubt it. It's not really injury potential and it'd be way to much of a judement call to make compared to a blatant slash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The call would still be tripping, attempting is the same as actually doing it in the rule book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im pretty sure that in roller hockey it can be called. Attempt to injure or just a unsportsmanlike. Also, anything the ref calls goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chadd 916 Report post Posted February 25, 2006 If a person gets called for a dive, why does the other player get penalized also? Technically there is no "diving" call in youth hockey or in any Hockey Canada or USA Hockey games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can hook a guy enough for it to be a penalty, but if he throws both hands up and does a barrel roll or two on the way to the ice, it's a dive in addition to the original penalty.
