Rules that bother me

<insert offense here> and diving/embellishment.

One or the other please.

Why? There can be a legit offence committed and have the player on the receiving end can still dive/embellish.

Well if they just call the diving I'm sure it would stop pretty quickly. There is some soccer-worthy divers in this league now. Not too worried about letting a legit offense go by if it stops this crap. I do suppose that if it was
a significant scoring chance ruined....maybe....

I agree that the league should call diving more, but, if a legitimate offence is committed, it should be called as well. Basically, I want the refs to tell these guys that their actions just cost their team a powerplay opportunity. Give them solo penalties when there's nothing else to penalize, but, give them both penalties when there is - but call players out on it more often than they do.
