Hockey Prompt:

Hockey is a great sport, and I am glad that embellishment has not become a big issue, in comparison to some other major sports.. yes looking at your soccer. When looking at the embellishment call in hockey, I think it is a good tool to have for referees to use if they think it is needed for the situation. Watching the Edmonton Oiler games this year, I think I have only seen it been called twice this season, once on the oilers once on the opposing team. Now I feel like referees are wildly inconsistent, however I feel like the embellishment call has been used to an acceptable standard. You never really see players over embellish, which is why the call is not really needed. Hockey is mean to be fast game, if more embellishment enters our game, it'll greatly slow down the game, and the enjoyment of the game so it is important that the penalty can be called to avoid these situations.
