DucksNPucks Podcast - Should the NHL ban hip checks?




DucksNPucks Podcast show

Summary: In the Anaheim Ducks game against the Minnesota Wild on December 5th, Keith Ballard delivered a hip check that injured Corey Perry knocking him out of the game. By league standards it was a clean check, but should the use of hip checks be banned or modified in the league to prevent injuries? Eddy Jones and I discuss if any changes should be made. We also discuss the Ducks signing Ilya Bryzgalov to a tryout contract and whether or not we think the Ducks should sign him for the remainder of the year. We recap last weeks of games in December and give you our predictions for the week. If you want to know how we think the Ducks will do on this upcoming week, then listen for our predictions! We also have our segment on our three stars of the week. Who do you think are deserving of the three stars? Listen and see if you agree!
