A player who may lack finesse but specializes in hard hitting checks to interfere with the other team Even no-check hockey sometimes attracts goons If there are a lot of them in your league we recommend you find another league Grinding: When a puck is shot into a corner of the rink and two opposing players attempt to gain position, grinding may occur The players may have close body contact and attempt to gain control by kicking the puck or using their stick with one hand This activity may take some time with a lots of hands and legs flying - hence the term grinding
