A new place to talk about minor hockey in North America & Around the World. Jump in to the Minor Hockey Talk forum and discuss everything about Hockey in Canada & Hockey in the USA
Will the GTHL step up and conduct a serious investigation into the culture at Forest Hill, Toronto's most entitled hockey club.
Its name calling...the kid needs to get over it. Reality is that there are ignorant people on this planet and nobody can control how they think or what they say.
My kid and plenty of his teammates and friends of various ethnicities heard racial chirps throughout their entire minor hockey experience. These kids laughed at the small minded attitudes and carried on. None are traumatized and they have grown into a well grounded group of young people who are all doing very well in life. TBH I'd have no problem if my kid responded with a 5 min slash on the other kids wrist...guaranteed that kid will re-consider what he says next time they meet.
IMO - blaming a racial chirp for mental anguish that caused a kid to have a bad game is nothing more than excuse.
Its wrong, I don't condone it, I think people with racists attitudes are scum...but there is no way in hell I'll ever let racist vocabulary of an idiot ruin my day or be a distraction to whatever it is I'd rather be doing.
I don't think violence is an appropriate reaction.
Condoning your kid slashing because another player called him a name.............piss poor parenting.
It’s how players police themselves when greasy players do things that the ref doesn’t see or hear.
Slashing isn’t violent, it’s a penalty. Penalties are part of the game.
A 2 min or 5 min penalty is much less severe than a 3 game suspension for uttering a racial slur.
Players could also police themselves by taking the number of the player and making sure he is hit just a bit harder the next time he has the puck.
Violence never solves anything. Teaching your kid to retaliate in a violent way makes you part of a bigger problem.
Teach your kid to laugh at the dumb dumb using racial slurs. Much better effect.

Oh he laughs….I simply said I would have no problem taking a 5 min slash if he wanted to.

Slashing is a penalty and penalties are part of the game.
The league assess slashing as a penalty…2 min minor or 5 min major. Verbal abuse of an official is 10 min.
Hit from behind is 1 game suspension, while a racial slur is an automatic 2 game suspension.
You’re encouraging a kid to respond with a heavy body check in a single A non-contact game. If that isn’t violent and more dangerous considering the controversy surrounding bodychecking and concussions in minor hockey, then I don’t know what is. You’re a hypocrite.
If you think smacking an opponent on the wrist is “violent” and crossing the line of sportsmanship, then you really shouldn’t have your kids playing any physical sports.
I suspect your kid is type to run his mouth and the thought of another kid taking matters into his own hands is terrifies you.

In the play ground - it would be assault with a weapon. Criminal offence.
On the ice - it would be slashing. 2 or 5 minute penalty.
Therefore not the same.
The fact that you’re unable to distinguish the difference speaks to your naivety.

Wake up.
If a person chooses to engage somebody and say something or do something to provoke them, they have no say how that person chooses to respond. They don't have the privilege to provide that person with a list of what they consider to be acceptable responses.
In other words, if you don't want that person to respond in what you would consider an excessive or violent manor...its in your best interest to compete with decorum and sportsmanship.

So penalties (including dirty penalties) are the result of someone asking for it? Tell that to a kid on our team who is an exceptional player, got hit from behind and now can't play due to a broken collar bone for the next 6 weeks. You can compete with decorum and sportsmanship but that doesn't make a player immune to the little assholes looking for any excuse to take someone out. You wake up.
None are traumatized and they have grown into a well grounded group of young people who are all doing very well in life. TBH I'd have no problem if my kid responded with a 5 min slash on the other kids wrist...guaranteed that kid will re-consider what he says next time they meet.
