NoVaFlyerFan Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I never see it called anymore, but it seems like Adams attacking Hartnell at the same time that Crosby is trying to instigate a fight with Hartnell is as blatant as it gets. If it does not apply in that scenario, when does it apply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzFlyer Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 It got called in the Rangers game yesterday when Boyle turtled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf101 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Correct Dubinsky got a game misconduct in the Rangers game. imo, if the third man in doesn't throw any punches he shouldn't be kicked out of a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hf101 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 @peter puckAdams did get a game misconduct, I'll assume it was for being the third man in, but the boxscore doesn't state why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackStraw Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) @peter puckAdams did get a game misconduct, I'll assume it was for being the third man in, but the boxscore doesn't state why.He got an instigator penalty. They don't call it "third man in" anymore.Correction: Apparently they do still call it "third man in":http://www.nhl.com/ice/page.htm?id=26336 Edited April 16, 2012 by JackStraw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHI Flyers10 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Did this game remind anyone of that one with the Lightning in 2004 where they had like 9 players left after all their cheap stunts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf101 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 @ hf You definately could be right. I was thinking it was for the hair pulling.Well, that could be right too. It is tough to get two game misconducts in a matter of minutes, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it does not apply in that scenario, when does it apply?well, generally when there is an actual fight going on that the third man jumps into. no fighting major for crosby there = no third man in.the trade off there is that adams was given the instigator, because the refs decided there was no "fight" prior to him getting involved. either way, it's a misconduct. worked out better for the flyers, because there is no minor penalty accompanying a third man in call.
