Pest (ice hockey)
In ice hockey, a pest is a player who attempts to antagonize opponent players either by physical play or verbal incitation.
Pests employ legal, illegal, or borderline tactics to accomplish their goals. Some common tactics include trash talk or slashing and hooking while referees are not looking. They may employ the tactic of goading opponents into a fight but then backing off in order to draw a penalty against them. Some pests may not only use these tactics against opposing skaters, but opposing goaltenders as well.〔 Pest and ''agitator'' are sometimes used synonymously, as both are usually characterized by short bursts of intensity and speed with the intention of creating havoc.〔 The pest characterization has been used derogatorily, as a player who incites anger in the opposition but is unwilling to directly confront the result of their actions by engaging in fighting, as would an enforcer. George McPhee, former general manager of the Washington Capitals, said, "Pests are really the guys who have no courage. They start stuff and don't back it up."
