Cheap F'ing players in beer/rec leagues....

[chippa13 1844]

I looked at the league board for beer league at my local rink and one guy had 60 penalty minutes in 14 games, yet number 3 in league scoring. if anyone wants to see the rest of that league.. not sure if i can post but just message me and ill send ya a link to it. The whole team seems like goons..

3yrs ago I was third in Pts and 2nd in Penalty minutes, not a goon, you would never see me cheap shot someone, 98% of my penalties where misconducts for arguing with refs or getting hit and starting a fight/shove match (young, dumb and full of )

This year 1 penalty, for shoving in the last game of the season. Feels good to grow up a little.

Yeah, that's so much better than the cheap shots out there. <_<

I'm not saying it was good, still dumb as shit, but I wasn't elbowing, slashing, cross checking guys. I have never injured another player. I was just a dat over sensitive to getting wacked/hit. I had been playing pond hockey for so long prior to men's league that I acted like a child when someone touched me.

We win the game, and during the shake, one of their guys (who was a kid) says to one of my buddies "I f*cked your Mom last night." My buddy doesn't take too kindly to this and tells him he needs to shut his mouth or he's gonna get beat.

This is the kind of stupid crap - on both sides - that I am sick of. A kid makes a stupid - but essentially harmless - remark because his team got creamed. Then some adult gets all bent out of shape because of it. Unless the kid actually did screw the guy's mom - what's to be upset about, and what's worth maybe getting into a fight about ? I'm tired of the dick swinging and posturing.

If someone said that to me, I'd instantly feel queasy in my stomach.

"Ewww, she's 77!"

I find the "my mothers dead, thanks for that" approach usually shuts them up and makes them feel like a proper tool long after the game is done

I thought about starting a new thread but it seems to fit in here. The other night I got two-handed it was meant for my knees but I turned into it and he got my stick instead. So now I wonder if its worth having a nice sticks anymore? Anyone else wonder about this as well? Anyone settle and use cheaper stuff because of it?

I also wondered about the handshake as well, its tough to shake it off when some guy tries to break your legs or ankle. Even if its not that extreme and the guy only intends to break my stick its still hard to say oh well when your out $100+.

I thought about this and realized I'm being ageist, because when I'm 80 and gaily skipping down from the mailbox with a package of blue pills, and the Big D says to me, "Are you crazy??? I'm 77!!", my response will be, "Not gonna work....."

I think you've got that a little mixed up. She'll be skipping gaily from the mailbox with the package as you're taking off in the [insert sports coupe here] on your way to rob the cradle. You'll be saying, "Are you crazy, you're 77!!!!"

Couple of real beauties on this team last night.

Some 18 year old asshole (#51) lost his damn mind when one of our guys slightly rode him into the boards. 3-2 at the time, winner goes home playoff game, and this kid was the best player on their team by a fair bit. Pretty hilarious, he was swinging his stick around and ended up slashing or trying to punch just about every one of our guy's that was on the ice. Funny thing was, he was a good player, but had no strength to him...the guy he was really going after is about 35 years old and has that kind of strength that seemingly everybody who grew up on a farm has...he would have one punched the kid, not a doubt in my mind. I was just laughing because I knew as soon as this kid got kicked out there was no way we were losing the game.

We ended up with back to back 5 minute major powerplays, and that was that. They had a few other assholes who went nuts as well, screaming at the refs, refusing to close the penalty box doors, just generally being dicks. One guy was literally screaming right in the refs face, about 2 inches from his nose, for over a minute (he had already been kicked out). I was trying to get them to just call the game. Shows a lot of class when it's your last game of the year and you pull some stunt like that. They should make everybody pay an extra $100 at the start of the season and if you get a game misconduct in your last game you don't get that money back.

That's a good one, Chippa! It reminds me of a story my friend told me about his father, who was 84 but still very active -- still running and working at his architecture business.

Anyway, he bought some new-on-the-market sports car. I don't know what it was, but it was brand new and powerful. So he's filling up at the gas station, when the guy next to him was thoroughly impressed and struck up a conversation about the car. Finally, the other guy gets in his car and drives away, but stops about twenty feet later and gets out to say, "Hey, you must really fuck up their demographics!"

I accidently broke another guys stick during a game a week ago. I was about ready to appologize for breaking it when the guy got all excitied and started cursing at me. Just so I didn't miss anything he was saying I skated up to him and exchanged my feelings for his. As soon as I got to the bench I switched to my back up stick because I had a feeling what was coming (one of my team mates even told me I better keep my head on a swivel). The guy is a total douche bag for the rest of the game and almost gets in a fight for tripping a guy three times...it was almost a fight because the guy wouldn't take off his cage until our guy got to the bench. Needless to say, I didn't feel bad after that for breaking his stick. After the game I was talking with the ref and he even said it didn't look like I broke it intentionally.

After our game last night one guy threatened to kill a couple of our guys. No shit, he actually said, "I will F-ing kill you." Some people take this shit way too seriously. Oh, by the way, they beat us by three goals and dominated the entire game and this moron was still wound up.

way too seriously. There are some a-holes in the league I play in, but I don't think we've ever had anyone threaten us after the game.

The last time I've heard anyone threaten anyone in beer leagues during the game was maybe 2 months ago, this guy threatened to spear my defense partner in the nuts...according to the guy he was going to do it "when you least expect it". I laughed and asked why he has to do it when our guy doesn't expect it, and then he didn't do anything to me or my defense partner the rest of the game.

[chippa13 1844]

Tell your partner to watch out, one day when he steps outside to pick up the morning paper he may get speared in the nuts.

The opposite happened to me at Open on Sunday. When we were warming up the goalies, I took a wrister, and hit the shaft of the goalie's stick, just above his blocker. Snapped it clean in two. I apologized immediately, and he said not to worry, that it's part of hockey. I REALLY felt bad when he packed up and left because he didn't have a spare.

Point is, some people understand shit happens, some people are just screwy.

oh man, I was thinking that guy meant during the game! Thanks for the tip, I'll let him know.

I'm playing with a bunch of guys in a local Police/Fire charity hockey tournament. Its a consolation game, neither us or the other team made the semi's so it should be low key. They are sorta a weaker team and we handled them pretty well. All was good the whole game except for their goalie. He is extremely incensed to be loosing and is letting every one of our players know when we get anywhere near him. Blocker to the head, stick to the back of the legs, poke to the back of your skates to take your feet out from under you, whatever he can do. The crazy part is that he is a minister. The guy who runs our team plays on the crazy goalies team in a mens league. Crazy goalie also plays out and is even dirtier without the pads on. After cheap-shotting someone, he returns to the bench and my buddy asks him, "I would have thought you'd be a little more mellow being a minister and all". Crazy goalie turns to him with a dead straight face and says, "The lord does not take the ice" and goes back to watching the game. They come in all shapes and sizes.

I guess he needs an outlet after holding it in, counseling others, and turning the other cheek most of the week.

Ok, I have to admit that the "Lord does not take the ice" comment from his was pretty hilarious.

But still.....dude needs to mellow out for christ's sake (literally) ;).

There's a reason why so many goalies have religious nicknames...

Reminds me of the Bishop from Caddyshack after he got struck by lightning. "Excellency, fiddlesticks, my name's Fred and I'm a man, same as you." Can you really go after a minister even if he's acting like a jerkoff on the ice? I guess if you crossed him after knocking him out it may be OK.

Not a cheap player but frustrating beer league situation tonight. We're up 5-2 starting the third period when studboy on the other team takes off and either scores or assists on every goal in the third, leading them to a 7-6 win. Most of the guys on my team aren't all that great and I'm way out of shape right now, so we're playing in a lower level league. Funny thing is he did the same thing to us in the first game of the season, 1-1 late in the third and all of a sudden he dekes past four of us and rips one past the goalie, right under the bar for a 2-1 win.

When you have multiple leagues for different levels of talent, this stuff shouldn't be happening. Anyone that does this kind of stuff should be ashamed of themselves.

This is why I like the AHA policy, someone reports a ringer, they go and watch a few games, then if they are a legit ringer the team gets told "move up a level or lose him"

The sad thing is that the rest of the team belongs down a level but this guy belongs up a couple levels.
