Bouchard crosschecking on Nosek – Tough Call Review



Bouchard crosschecking on Nosek – Tough Call Review

Evan Bouchard wasn’t happy with a perceived no call so he retaliated on Tomas Nosek with two crosschecks to the back.

  1. Correct, that were 2 deliberate chross checks from Bouchard. At least the second one, it can`t get any more obvious.

    Nevertheless, there was a foul on Bouchard before.
    A foul can be bad luck, it doesn`t have to be on purpose.
    2min for Nosek for intereference or hooking or what you wanna call it, but call it.

    And if they react late:
    2min for Nosek, 4min for Bouchard.

  2. Bouchard is such a roller coaster of a player. So clutch and gifted when it comes to offensive ability…however he also takes such bone headed penalties and often finds himself on the ice for opposing goals. Bad penalty to take for sure.

  3. 100 percent disagree. It was a hook. He wraps his stick across him, his stick then catches the net creating a clotheslines type of take down. Slow it down and look. It was also 100 percent intentional.

  4. This is a great example of how refs lose control of the game when the chose what to call. They are both penalties. If they call the first the 2nd won’t happen. Instead they don’t call the first that could have been an injury, and then the second could have been an injury because the refs don’t do their job. Let’s reduce the risks and protect the players by calling the first infraction every time
