Penalty : Game Miscondunct – Checking from behind
Violation rule : 43
Verdict : After reading the referee report and viewing the footage, we are of the opinion that on top of the standard penalty of 1 game suspension – 5 points, an additional 1 game suspension should be imposed.
We are of the opinion that player Geleen #8 had enough time to avoid the player with number 24 of Herentals and not to hit him in the back and also to reinforce this movement with his hands and stick. This kind of offence is therefore particularly dangerous to the physical integrity of any player and should always be judged severely.
