Didn’t have or touch the puck, so clear interference but if it’s anything more TBD. He’s out injured for at least the rest of the game and we’ll see how long over the next day or so.

He hit the puck, causing it to speed up and fly off the blues players skate

Predatory, leaves his feet, Scheifs didn't have possession of the puck.

I love huge hard hits, but I'm not a fan of the predatory hits where you lay a guy the f*** out just because you notice he's in a vulnerable position.
I thought the hit was a step too far. On the border of predatory.. No more so though than Scheifele's hit on Jake Evans in the playoffs. Less so in fact..

Scheifele played the puck. Schenn’s skates are on the ice at contact.

Watch again, Schenn's left skate leaves the ice before impact. He is posturing his body for upward momentum as he's trying to inflict maximum damage to the bigger Scheifele, but the skate is very clearly off the ice before impact on the replays that I saw.
