What's disconnected from reality is your notion of this lovey dove world where we all think about social crimes. Sorry to burst your bubble, but that's simply not reality.

And what would you have had the banks do? Not act as banks? Not act to pursue their mandates? Don't blame banks for taking advantage of regulations, blame the people drafting and enforcing the regulations.

Would you blame Iginla for scoring on a PP brought about by an over the glass penalty if you believed that to be a stupid rule and there is video of the puck deflecting out? It's a very similar situation, the opportunity was created by a faulty rule (I actually like the rule but for the purpose of the example let's call it stupid) and bad enforcement. Do you expect that penalty to be declined as a 'social crime' or do you expect teams and players to pursue their mandate?
