It's my third year in the SMJHL, so I think after 104 regular season game and 22 playoffs game, all the refs know me.
I'm not really someone who will always bark at the ref for some calls they didn't make, but only when the situation require it.
When I player enter my zone, he needs to understand that he's in my territory and he have to pay attention to what he does if he doesn't want a slashing on the calves.
I'm kinda tall so I will not be intimidated in my crease, but if you respect me, I will do the same thing. Some teams or players are trying to play dirty and mess with me, but I try my best to stay cool and keep the focus on the game.
So if someone is hacking me, it will not be long before I retaliated on my own if the ref does nothing. I will let the player and the ref know that they have to pay more attention to this, but I will only give one second chance.
