This entire period has been a Rangers powerplay, which I want people to remember later when somebody posts some chart and they scoff at it.
 
Honestly, I don't know what to make of that.

The rule uses the word "crease" and the puck was technically not in the crease but it also kind of was.
You need to understand the definition of the crease and know the rules. The crease is a vertical entity. The lines on the ice extend upwards. If you catch the puck and hold it in your glove on the crease it's a penalty shot whether it's on the ice or in the air. That's why guys bat the puck away with their glove if it's in the air in the crease. If it's out of the crease in the air a lot of players will grab the puck or catch it and drop in a controlled manner to make a play...
