Slashing >> Gray Areas
Possible Slash on Upper Arm
Correct Call: | The first check lands high, the second lands on the glove. The first check could be called a slash. The velocity is right on the line, and the location is in slash territory. | |
For this to be a definitive penalty: | More velocity needed. | |
For this to be a definitive NO call: | Less velocity needed, or have the first check land on the glove or stick. | |
Game Level: | This could be called a penalty on lower tiered games or to tighten up an out of control game. |
Slash on loose ball
Correct Call: | #1 in white clearly swings his stick with enough velocity and recklessness, but does he make contact to consitute a slash? It looks like he does make lucky contact with the opponent’s stick. | |
For this to be a penalty: | Missing the stick and making contact with the opponents ribs. | |
Game Level: | This could be called a penalty on lower tiered games. |
