Can anyone tell me the last time a dive was called as a penalty? I don't think I've seen one since before the lockout, in all honesty. Is it still a penalty?

The last diving call I can remember calling was against Homer after he got tripped by the goalie several years ago.

Bert hit with a high stick penalty. That was more legit that the Hank "tripping" call.

The fact that this looks like Ovechkins hit/knee and everybody here is saying how it wasn't a penalty proves how biased these opinions are in this forum. Double standards anyone?

No, because that would mean that we all thought that Zetterberg deserved a penalty. I seem to remember alot of people defending Ovechkin, saying that there was no way he could have avoided the hit.

Really? Z stuck out his leg. Bottom line. Why is it not a penalty? ?Because it was on Avery and being called on the Wings?

watch the replay again....z's legs were closed....they just accidentally bumped knees and either one of them coulda dove but avery is just that kind of punk and hank is not.

they were calling them occasionally in the "new" NHL, but that seems to have gone by the wayside.

Well that's dumb, they should loosen up control of the league a bit and let the guys play. Just call what' s a penalty and don't worry about "shaping the game" by telling the refs what to call and not call.
