Elbows Up!

A defensive stance in hockey, taken in response to another player attempting to start a fight on the ice.
The phrase "Elbows up!" enjoyed a spike in popularity in 2025, when it was adopted widely as a Canadian response to foreign bullying. It is a defensive stance, but one which infers standing ones ground.
