Curious how you guys handle this situation.
We beat a team two weeks ago in what was definitely one of the more physical games I've ever played in. The other team was a bunch 22-23 year old guys with a short fuse a chip on their shoulder. Toward the end of the game things got pretty chippy, words were exchanged, there were a few scrums after the whistle but nothing more than a face wash and telling guys to "chill out".
So after the handshake a couple guys on their side pick out one of our smaller guys (but also one of our more physical player) and call him out (apparently he did something they didn't like). I think the exact words were "We're F'ing coming after you next time we play you guys".
So as luck would have it, guess who we play again this week!?
Our team is a bunch of 30 year old guys with families, none of us are looking to get in a scrap, get kicked out, or worse (our rink is owned by a NHL franchise and has been known to call the cops after a dust up). There's no doubt in my mind that these other guys are going to come in looking to start crap...
So i guess the question is, how do you guys approach a game like this?
