If you can't wheel past a dude with ease then you don't have the right to call the dude a pylon. Most likely if you keep getting the puck stripped off of you then you probably don't have the right to call anyone anything in general.
You always get that go hard at shinny every once in a while. The random dude who chases you way too hard when going towards the boards, too much stick work, slapshots through traffic and thinks his stick is a sword, keep that god damn thing on the ice. People just gotta learn what shinny etiquette is.

Exactly!
Thats one of the reasons I never go to shinny or dont really play competitive anymore, way to many guys are still living the dream and still believes there are hidden scouts in the empty stands.

Shinny's that i go to aren't that bad dupes, but the odd time you get that guy that makes everyone roll their eyes, it's not a common thing. The ones i go to generally have pretty good to high level guys with a couple less experienced guys. It's a mix but most know to pass the puck and not take 20 min shifts so they're pretty good. It's actually pretty nice, the one i go to you see a lot of the same faces all the time sprinkled in with randoms here and there so it's a good time. Other than that i just run my own private skate as well where many members on the forum have attended.
I will agree with you on the league part, i play one tournament a year with some very good friends and that's it for competitive. Mainly because there's just not enough ice time either at beer league, at least at the shinny's there's two hours of ice and sometimes more. I feel so disappointed after a game, always feel like i have so much more energy to expend.

He tried and tried to get past me the whole game but I kept taking the puck off of him and at one time I heard him yell as he went to the bench that he can't believe he keeps getting stuffed by that pylon. As a hockey player I really don't get too bothered by chirping but he didn't even say it to me and all I could think was, if I was a pylon that means you would be blowing past me and having your way lol of course he made a tongue in cheek comment about my stick length afterwards in the change rooM some people take shinns way too serious
Sorry dude, I'll never do it again.

I've had guys try to fight me at shinny, or throw a shoulder into me. I'm ex-army and played Lax my whole life, so not nervous to confrontations or anything. I just don't understand how people don't have self-control over something like this. We all pay 5-10$ to play, and none of us are making the NHL so settle a wee-bit.
The chirp 'pylon' is pretty hilarious though, would've made me laugh on the ice.
