Tonight, in a game nobody will watch, two teams will play a hockey.

The last time both of these teams were relevant?


Here's what our coach was doing then:

Didnt really look like a dirty hit? Obviously I don't want him hurt but I'd need to see more angles of that. Looked like a hit to the body that caught a knee maybe - but also looked like the classic get hurt because you're trying to avoid a hit and get caught in the middle.

Second look, seems like he made a move the defender didn't buy and skated right through him. Necas hung himself out there a bit and got caught.

Really? It looks like a junior player trying a move on a pro player. Necas has one hand on his stick on an exposed move to the backhand that leaves his whole core available, Marchment pivots to his right and makes no move to stick his leg out. The contact is lined up core on core, maybe the knee makes contact but Necas left himself available for that when he forced a move to the middle against a guy who wasnt just gonna give it up.
