Cross-checking is a part of hockey, according to Vegas Golden Knights captain Mark Stone, who spoke with ESPN's Greg Wyshynski about the expected crackdown.
"Cross-checking has become almost natural in the game. I cross-check. I get cross-checked. That's just how it's been," Stone said. "But if they're trying to get rid of injuries, I can understand why they're doing it. It's a sensitive area. In the playoffs especially, it can get a little out of control."
