Checking in on cross-checking – Winnipeg Free Press

It’s not a new rule, but an old one revisited and strengthened this season with the hope of encouraging more offence and reducing injuries, particularly when it comes to battling in front of the net. | National Hockey League Rule 59, otherwise known as “cross-checking,” became a major focal point heading into the 2021-22 season after the league determined the penalty needed a crackdown. Now, more than 30 games into the regular season, it seems as good a time as ever to check in on the Winnipeg Jets to see what they’ve observed so far this year. | Jets defenceman Brenden Dillon, a player known for his physicality, admitted it’s been a notable adjustment to his game. He’s watched video and taken note of what he’s seen in-game to ensure he understands how to walk the line without getting called for a penalty. | “We kind of learned one end of the spectrum, what it was going to be like, in pre-season, and then kind of followed throughout the first whatever it’s been, 30, 35 games now. You’ve got to check with your feet, which I think has kind of been the way the league has been trending the last four or five years anyways,” Dillon said.
