Everett Youth Jersey .ca! Hi Kerry, Early in the second period of Mondays
game between Los Angeles and Vancouver, Kings player Jake Muzzin hit Canuck
Daniel Sedin with a high stick, knocking a tooth out. Sedin clearly showed the
tooth to the referees, yet Muzzin received only a two-minute minor. Why was this
not a double minor? Thanks,Shaun from Vancouver --- Hi Kerry, As I watched
Daniel Sedin take a high stick to the mouth and broke a tooth (at least now
people can tell the two apart), shouldnt that be a double minor? My
understanding of rule 60.3 regarding a double minor is that it is any injury
should warrant a double minor and blood does not have to show. When a player
carries or holds any part of his stick above the shoulders of the opponent so
that injury results, the Referee shall assess a double-minor penalty for all
contact that causes an injury, whether accidental or careless, in the opinion of
the Referee. Could you explain why the referees didnt give Muzzin a double
minor? Thanks,GarethRichmond, BC Shaun and Gareth: Based on the physical
evidence presented by Daniel Sedin to Referee Steve Kozari and the calm and
accepting demeanor coach John Tortorella demonstrated in the explanation that
followed, its most obvious that a replacement crown became unglued as a result
of the high stick committed by Jake Muzzin. The solid cap Daniel pulled out of
his mouth does not constitute an injury. On the other hand, if Sedin had spit
out broken fragments of a tooth (crown) or even withheld solid evidence in his
glove revealing a broken chicklet, short of checking dental records the referee
would have legitimate cause to assess a double minor penalty. I found myself in
this very situation in two different games played within a week of each other.
Both times they involved Matthew Barnaby and his missing tooth. I wasnt aware
that Barney had a capped front tooth. A stick came up near Barneys face and he
immediately bent over and covered his mouth. By the time I got to him Matthews
big smile revealed a broken front tooth. I assessed a double minor penalty as a
result of the apparent injury.The very next week I worked another game involving
the Buffalo Sabres player. During the National Anthem I noticed that Matt
Barnaby was sporting a shiny silver crown. As good luck would have it, this time
around I was in perfect position to see an errant stick clearly missed Barnabys
face and head. Once again, Matthew doubled over, grabbed his face and yanked the
silver cap out of his mouth which he immediately concealed inside his glove.
Barney then approached me and pointed to the same filed down remnants of a front
tooth as he appealed for a double minor penalty to be called. I now had
legitimate reason to suspect I had been duped in the previous game. I told
Matthew he had two problems with this attempt to sell a penalty call this time
around. For one, the stick never touched him and two, his memory was obviously
fuzzy since I was the same ref he pulled this on a week earlier. Matthew didnt
dispute my claim and instead fished the shiny cap out of his glove, stuck it
back in his mouth and gave me the smile of a choir boy! Fortunately for Referee
Steve Kozari, Daniel Sedin didnt take a bite out of Barnabys play book.

and was limited to 73 games.
