Unintentional high sticks were always called, feels like a homer take to say that wasn’t double minor.
It’s not interference either, you guys are just hard coping for no reason.

Freak play, tough way to lose.
Killed off 5 and a half mins of the six mins too. Pk has improved a great deal.

I’m not a fan of it but it’s definitely a double minor high stick. Maybe it’s a homer take but I would have liked to see 2 of those minutes knocked off with a Kane interference penalty but oh well

The double minor high stick is the most flawed rule in hockey imo. This is a good example but someone could absolutely rail someone in the face with the stick and get no blood, and then someone else could barely brush the skin with one but it manages to touch a pimple or something and produce blood so it’s a double minor. Crazy that can’t be reviewed.

Hot take but I don’t hate the call. Refs need to call all high sticks intentional or not. It’s up to the players to be in control of their stick.
It’s stupid, but if you poke with your stick one handed you take a risk of losing control of it and taking a penalty for it. I’m fine with it.
When referees don’t miss them, high sticks are actually one of the most consistently called penalties in the book, and that’s GOOD. We need consistency in applying the rules, not the bullshit made up like goaltender interference or roughing where the call is « whatever the ref feels like ».

Doesn’t matter you have to control your own stick and you can’t let it go in other peoples faces
