- Faceoffs in hockey seem simple but can get confusing and complicated as well. Why do faceoffs happen? How do they decided where and when to do a faceoff? and WHY do players keep getting kicked out of them? Well the rules can help with some of those answers meanwhile the rest... well you'll see.

Im here to figure out WHY THE HELL THEY TOSS GUYS FROM THE FACEOFF BEFORE EVER ATTEMPTING TO DROP THE PUCK
The sad truth in the current state of the NHL is that a lot of it is down to the whims of officials. Sometimes they will even fake drop to try to catch guys cheating and kick them out.
@@CheapSeatsSportsI'm a hockey player who's been playing or watching for most of my life. A lot of centers get jumpy or aggressive on the dot. The fake drops are standard procedure all the way down through high school, as a way to weed out people who are gonna commit a penalty anyways. If a pair of centers keep going at each other, the ref might fake drop to see if he can kick one out and cool it down. Hope that helps!
This is literally why I came here too lol glad I wasn’t the only one who searched for this
It would be nice if we had a consistent face-off winner. Maybe one of the younger players will be good. On the whole, though, I rather see the deep sea monsters have a greatly improved power play and Kill. Thanks for the video. GO KRAKEN!
Younger players tend to struggle with it at first so it's possible Matty grows into it.
This is amazing. Thanks 😊
Thanks for this video! It’s very helpful as a new hockey fan.
Glad to hear it!
Really enjoying all these 101 videos
Happy to hear it!
Next part of the history of the NHL, please. You presented it very well so far.
That will be the next 101
@@CheapSeatsSports When will it be released, tho?
This is great. I could use more of these NHL 101 videos. Thank you!
Great info ty ❤💖
You're welcome
Lol I'm not new to hockey, been watching all my life. Came here for kicks and oh man I laughed so hard when you said (paraphrasing) "the wingers aren't supposed to touch each other before the puck drops XD. This is why enforcers exist in this game (to a much lesser extent now), the players police the game more than the refs.
Yeah, saying players aren't supposed to touch each other before the faceoff is like saying you are supposed to get over the center ice line before dumping the puck in to prevent icing. It's a guideline at best, but generally ignored.
Could you make playlist of those NHL 101 videos? Please? 🥺 I love them but i'm not a fan of looking for them one by one 😅
I have one actually! It's called "hockey for beginners" I believe, this link should go to it: czcams.com/play/PLmVyhgzh40oEEKCs1WqhMaln4dK8jpX4d.html&si=TnGXsE6Hox3Gc3dp
Oooh, I'm sorry, i expected it to be named "NHL 101" so i obviously couldn't find it 😅 Thank you!
@@CountDigression it includes some non NHL 101 videos which is why I named it that but maybe I should change it.
@@CheapSeatsSports maybe just "Hockey for beginners / NHL 101" so everyone could find what they're looking for? 🤔🧐😉
That Nicholas cage joke cracked me up 😂
Glad someone enjoyed it 😄
How much difference between NHL and AHL?
For faceoffs not a ton, other than that most NHL players are better at winning them
LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!
"Why certain players get thrown out of the faceoff" well if its Nazem Kadri, its any reason the ref can possibly come up with at that moment, it doesn't even have to be logical lol
Yup, and he isn't the only one.
Its not pronounced Yanic Pirrah. It's pronounced Yanic Peroe.
If that is the case there are a few announcers from when he played that got it wrong too. I double check pronunciation with clips of the players, it's obviously not perfect tho.
@CheapSeatsSports I just went through dozens of Yanic Perreault clips to see if anyone else messed it up, and each of the announcers pronounced it exactly the same way...Peroe. He's french. There's no other way to pronounce it 😆. There's even interviews where he looks into the camera and says Hi, I'm Yanic Peroe.
@ramymelhem I wasn't doubting that you were right about the pronunciation, and idk what clip I watched then where they said it incorrectly but I guess my bad for not looking at more to be sure.
The Golden Knights are stupid I hate them so much.
I don't disagree
