Tom Wilson Demolishes Jamie Oleksiak

That’s not an instigator.

 

Oleksiaks gloves are off .0001 seconds after Wilson’s. Both had gloves off before engaging. Oleksiak throws the first punch.

 

Directly coming across for a fight with a player you're not engaged with isn't an instigator?

 

A player who is deemed to be both the instigator and aggressor of an altercation shall be assessed an instigating minor penalty, a major penalty for fighting, a ten-minute misconduct (instigator) and a game misconduct penalty (aggressor).

 

Fits the bill. Nothing to do with when gloves are dropped.

Not sure why people keep posting the wrong rule. Instigator and aggressor are different rules.

46.2

Aggressor

? The aggressor in an altercation shall be the player who

continues to throw punches in an attempt to inflict punishment on his

opponent who is in a defenseless position or who is an unwilling

combatant.

A player must be deemed the aggressor when he has clearly won

the fight but he continues throwing and landing punches in a further

attempt to inflict punishment and/or injury on his opponent who is no

longer in a position to defend himself.

A player who is deemed to be the aggressor of an altercation shall

be assessed a major penalty for fighting and a game misconduct.

A player who is deemed to be the aggressor of an altercation will

have this recorded as an aggressor of an altercation for statistical and

suspension purposes.

A player who is deemed to be both the instigator and aggressor of

an altercation shall be assessed an instigating minor penalty, a major

penalty for fighting, a ten-minute misconduct (instigator) and a game

misconduct penalty (aggressor).

46.3

Altercation

- An altercation is a situation involving two

 

46.11

Instigator

- An instigator of an altercation shall be a player who by his

actions or demeanor demonstrates any/some of the following criteria:

distance traveled; gloves off first; first punch thrown; menacing

attitude or posture; verbal instigation or threats; conduct in retaliation

to a prior game (or season) incident; obvious retribution for a previous

incident in the game or season.

A player who is deemed to be the instigator of an altercation shall

be assessed an instigating minor penalty, a major penalty for fighting

and a ten

-minute misconduct.

If the same player is deemed to be the instigator of a second

altercation in the same game, he shall be assessed an instigating

minor penalty, a major penalty for fighting and a game misconduct.

When a player receives his third instigator penalty in one Regular

season, he is automatically given a game misconduct following that

third violation.

A player who is deemed to be both the instigator and aggressor of

an altercation shall be assessed an instigating minor penalty, a major

penalty for fighting, a ten-minute misconduct (instigator) and a game

misconduct penalty (aggressor).

Any request by a Club to have an instigator penalty reviewed and

rescinded by the League must follow the same procedure for game

misconduct penalties as outlined in

23.2

.

 

distance traveled; Maybe Wilson

gloves off first; Wilson - but irrelevant. Gloves came off before engaging

first punch thrown; Oleksiak

menacing attitude or posture; N/A

verbal instigation or threats; Oleksiak has been chasing him for a year

conduct in retaliation to a prior game (or season) incident; Oleksiak

obvious retribution for a previous incident in the game or season. N/A

 

They were both willing combatants. No one "jumped" the other guy or was the "aggressor"

It's during the first shift of the game as well. Looks like one of those proper old school, pre-arranged affairs.

Although reduced marks for doing it incorrectly, as the gloves should come off at the drop of the puck.

 

But all is well, as Oleksiak got knocked the fuck out.
