For each of the following situations, would you be inclined to call unsportsmanlike conduct, a conduct foul, or nothing? In most cases there are no “correct” answers, and it’s hard to capture a situation completely in words, so what you would actually call would depend on exactly what you saw. If your answer is USC, please specify how long the penalty would be if longer than 1:00.

I’m posting this on more than one board, so I apologize if you see it twice.

1. After a goal is scored against him, the goalie turns and punches the goal.

2. After fouling out of the game, a player takes off his helmet in the penalty box and slams it into the ground.

3. There is a clear push from behind (the pushing player is completely behind the player he pushes, and it knocks the opponent face-first into the ground). The player called for the push says “That was from the side!”

4. Same as 3, but the player yelling about the call is a defenseman on the other side of midfield who was not involved in the play and was 30 yards away.

5. A player scores a goal and throws his stick in the air in celebration.

6. The goalie pulls the goal down over his head to prevent a goal with 20 seconds left in the game to preserve a shutout.

7. A player tells another player that he’s going to “kill him.”

8. A player misses a shot or pass and yells the F-word.

9. A player misses a shot or pass and yells the S-word.

10. A player misses a shot or pass and yells “damn it!”

11. A player blows out his knee and yells the F-word as he lies on the ground.

12. A player whispers the F-word to himself after a goal is scored against his team, and no one hears it but you and the player.

13. Two players get locked up with each other behind the play, bumping into each other repeatedly without quite getting to the point of openly shoving each other or throwing punches.

14. The head coach yells “That’s a horrible call!”

15. The head coach yells “How much are they paying you to call the game this way?”

16. The assistant coach yells “That’s a horrible call!”

17. The head coach takes a stick that has failed a stick check off the scorer’s table to measure it himself.

18. A player bodychecks another player from behind and lands on him. Then, while kneeling on his back, deliberately cross-checks him in the back of the head.

19. A player tells another player he’s going to get him in the parking lot after the game.

20. A player tells another player “Your team sucks.”
