Doubt. There's no way the refs would tolerate that language from kids.
I'm in Western Canada and I can tell you their parents in the stands are usually worse.
If the ref heard it they might care enough. Maybe, maybe not. Hockey kids say all sorts of shit.
In highschool an opponent coach called one of my team mates the n word. I told the coach I was going to kill him. Referee decided the fouls canceled one another. Wish I had drop kicked that fucking cunt instead.
Drop kicking someone while on skates would be fucking impressive.

I'm on the fence. On the one side I despise a society that resorts to violence to solve problems. This is primitive. Then again it sure feels like some people don't learn another way. Doesn't mean it's good.
Mhm, a story to remember for sure.
It's anecdotal, but I was bullied mercilessly when I was a big, fat sixth grader by this pack of fifth graders who would run up behind me during lunchtime in the playground, kick me, and run away. This went on for some time until one day I happened to turn around at just the right second and caught this little shit by the name of Cory Rodgerson.
I took a big, wide swing and smacked him upside the head as hard as I could. One punch. I vividly remember (probably partly falsely given the forty years that have passed) him spinning, falling over, and then bawling his eyes out. I felt horrible about it, but you know what? Him and his group of cronies never bullied me again.
He learned that actions have consequences, and I learned that violence sucks, but sometimes it does solve problems. Was there a better solution? Probably, but telling my teachers and parents had had no effect, so what else was I supposed to do about it? I also did not grow up to be violent, and in fact have never gotten into any kind of physical altercation as an adult, so maybe it was a good lesson for me, too.
Fucking Cory! Classic
Consequences are measuring levels of controlled violence. Both human and not.
If one assumes violence is an unnecessary tool, then we would've resolved the issue with actual criminal syndicates both high and low by now. Alas, that's not happening when said syndicates can and will use their own levels of controlled violence against everyone else.
Disagree, sometimes we have go go back to the fundamental. Looks around, shitty people aren't get punched enough.
It's hockey. Punching someone in the face is how you express your feelings.
Fuck I thought hockey was like, the only sport other than boxing where you're supposed to punch them.
there are still rules to fight him
I think a pro hockey player would get kicked out of a game for sucker punching a player at face off.
They can fight, but there's a sort of "gentlemen's agreement" that is usually consensual and happens after face off. Referees will often even give them space to duke it out.
Unless someone on the other team did something really fucked up, then all bets are off (and you take the suspension for sucker punching them lol).

Then that hockey game wasn't valuable. Fuck toxic enviroments as these that ban the ones who do the only correct thing to do.

Sure, when your son punches someone on the opposing team during a kid’s hockey game he’s “defending his teammates honor”, but when I do it I’m “assaulting a minor” and “not allowed within 300 feet of a school” by a so-called “judge”.
I thought this was America!
