My team doesn't, unless it's a collective agreement amongst everyone and it's close and an important playoff game, otherwise, it's stupid, especially for low ass divs.
good to know about the stick infractions.. I was goalie was a zinc2 game and my teammate got high sticked and the other player got a 2 mins pen. i asked the ref why it wasn't 4 mins when an earlier HS pen was 4 mins, he said it was accidental... and "its zinc 2, get over it". I won't name who the ref was but, like most asian refs in any roller hockey league, class act!". And since when was a high stick ever "on purpose". Yes, I intentionally missed my stick lift and clipped his head because I felt like it.

I wonder if some of these refs are fully certified. Another one I loved was

me/teammate: "what was that for??"

ref: "you know".

me thinking : "ummm no i don't know.. that is why i asked you. and it is your job to tell me what i did....

I realize there is no point arguing with refs because you will never win, and will only get them against you as the game goes on, but it never ceases to amaze me at the interpersonal skills most refs lack.
