Have you read the rule? It has zero to do with impeding Swayman’s ability to play the puck. Bennett shoving Coyle into Swayman is the exact same thing, according to the rule, as if he went into the crease and initiated contact with Swayman himself. Did Geekie impede Bobrovsky’s ability to play the puck? No, there was no puck (!). Rather, he initiated contact with Bobrovsky, which “for the purpose of the rule” (according to the very wording of the rule itself) is precisely what Bennett did (and also, while we’re at it, apparently what Lauko did last game). But, you know, you can go ahead and read it for yourself.
