How bout when a player dives to poke check the puck away from the opposing player, and knocks down the puck-carrier AFTER hitting the puck??

Trip or no trip???

Trip. There is no way the ref can know 100% that there wasnt an intent to take the player down while going for the puck or not. The player knows there is a chance he will trip the player while diving to knock the puck away but thats his risk.

It doesnt matter if he hits the puck first...that is an NHL rule and youth hockey doesnt go by it.

If a kid is on a breakaway...the dman behind him dives...hits the puck away then the player falls over the skick there will still be a penalty...it wont be a penalty shot because he didnt have a scoring chance anymore while he was tripped since the player hit the puck away first.

Please speak for your own rulebook. Just because it is not in the USA Hockey rulebook, don't go assuming it is just an NHL rule.

Under Hockey Canada rules, this situation does not warrant a penalty. If you don't believe me, Rule 85(c) states the following...

Where a player uses her stick, knee, hand, foot, arm or elbow in any manner or falls or slides along the ice directly in the path of the puck, causing the puck carrier to trip and lose possession of the puck, a penalty shall be assessed.
Note: If a player in the process of falling or sliding along the ice, hits or knocks the puck from her opponent's stick prior to making actual body contact, the tripping action shall be ignored.
