While we’re talking penalties, Hartwick and Romfo received a match ban for taking a major penalty in the last 2 minutes of the game (that is correct yes?). This rule was brought into the league towards the end of last season (mid season rules changes – nice one Elite League) as I understand that Rushton received this penalty.
I was told that during the Giants v Steelers game on Sky last week there was a fight in the last 2 mins of the game (I didn’t watch it programme). If that is the case, surely a fight brings a 5 minute major and therefore the players in question should have missed the next game?
A friend of mine brought this so my attention on Saturday but like I said, I didn’t see the game so cannot comment. Can anyone clarify.
