00:17after the Stars lose last night

00:194-0 right here on 105.3

00:21the fan was the Jamie

00:23Ben Punch dirty

00:24so I got a bunch of

00:27hockey buddies back home that I played with

00:29and I was curious

00:30pond hockey outdoors where men

00:33are men none of this fancy

00:35stuff inside rinks we skate

00:37outdoors in the winters

00:38I was really curious

00:41ice fish too

00:42I suck at that kind of stuff

00:44I'm not manly enough

00:46you just said it was manly men that play hockey

00:48in a sports setting

00:50when you don't have to have any brain cells

00:52you gotta actually know what you're doing fishing wise

00:54but I asked a couple of buddies

00:57what do you think because I knew they'd

00:59give me a non-biased opinion

01:01just hockey fans

01:01they watch every game

01:02you know

01:03not a dog in the fight

01:04that sort of thing

01:04and both guys I talked to said

01:07kind of a sucker punch

01:09but I don't think he gets suspended

01:11so I thought I was

01:12because I was kind of on the other side

01:14like dang sucker punch

01:15out in the open

01:16in front of everybody

01:17would that normally get you suspended?

01:19I

01:19that's where it's a judgment call

01:21and I was surprised

01:23both my buddies said

01:24look I think it's very dirty

01:25and can't stand it

01:26whatever

01:27but I don't think he gets suspended

01:28what separates things

01:30with a fracas

01:31where you are pushing and shoving

01:36versus having one of the punches land

01:38is it just come down to sometimes

01:40whether the punch lands

01:41versus pushing shoving

01:43you can swing

01:44but not get suspended

01:46you know like

01:46Ben's going to get punished extra

01:48for connecting

01:48versus a usual tussle

01:50I think it's like

01:51if both guys like

01:53hey we're dropping

01:54we're squaring up

01:55versus like

01:56one guy threw a punch

01:57where the other one was like

01:58I'm not

01:59I'm just engaged in a

02:00shoving match here

02:01yeah

02:01right right

02:02it's kind of one of those things

02:03like you know

02:03you could compare it to something else

02:05in life where

02:06you don't necessarily

02:07have a distinctive

02:09definition of it

02:10but you know it

02:11when you see it
