I wish everyone on this site would stop calling physical play "dirty ". Just because little Johnny gets hit going to the cage doesn't make a player dirty.
That statement shows you don't know the difference between physical and dirty. Plus, this year refs are going to be looking for "excessive hits", though not dirty but excessive and time will be served for those types of hits. I've seen clean hits that were excessive and a penalty was called and time served. On some of those hits if I were the ref it would be 2 min. non releasable and then if the same player does it again, another penalty and toss his butt out of the game. Only way this crap is going to be controlled.
