I think it would depend on the situation. If there's only a number of games in a tournament or round robin format, and goals for/against is a factor, you could make a claim for a 47-1 score. Justified? not sure if a +46 margin is needed, but it could come into play.

Regular minor hockey, I would say it's uncalled for. But I wouldn't know where to draw the line between acceptable, and dispicable. In all the games I ever played in, I don't think I ever had a coach tell me to lighten up on the other team, but none of the games I played in were as important as a Winter Games compitition.

That would be a tough call, but having said all that... I think 47 goals in a game is unfavourable, especially by one team. Interesting brain teaser there Sample...
