Minor Hockey Talks - Hockey Forum

Brady Martin’s three-game suspension for interference sparks debate. Was the hit on Nolan Laird a dirty play deserving of supplemental discipline, or simply a hard-nosed hockey play in a crucial moment of a tie game? Where do you draw the line between acceptable physicality and dangerous play in today’s game? Considering the coach’s vehement disagreement with the call, is this an example of officials overstepping their bounds, or are coaches too quick to defend their players? This incident brings up larger questions about the role of officiating and player safety at all levels of hockey. What are your thoughts? Let’s discuss. Furthermore, will this suspension significantly impact the Greyhounds upcoming road trip? Could this be a turning point in their season, for better or worse?
