Players with nhl jerseys must obey the rule that head shot is not allowed.
The union’s representatives on the competition committee signed off on the new rule Wednesday. The executive board will soon vote on the proposed edict to eliminate dangerous hits against unsuspecting skaters. If the ban passes, the NHL will be allowed to issue supplemental discipline to violators this season.
The six players on the committee said in a statement that they have deliberated and endorsed to the NHLPA Executive Board the League’s proposal to implement supplemental discipline this season for blindside hits to the head. Their Executive Board will vote on this recommendation and they will respond back to the League with a decision in the next 24-48 hours.

Conklin 29 saves
Ty Conklin with st louis blues hockey jersey has gone from backup to a key part of the team for a playoff spot.
Conklin made a second straight start, both road victories for the Blues. He has four shutouts and 10 wins in only 23 games this season. Conklin beat the New York Rangers on Thursday.“It’s amazing what he’s able to do,” Blues coach Davis Payne said. “He’d been on the bench for a while and all of a sudden, he was thrown into the fire. To perform like that takes a guy with great focus and a great amount of intensity to step in, see the guy at the other end of the ice, and find a way to beat him 1-zip.”
Conklin said they know where they are at. They have to win the majority of their games.
