Stutzle goal called off due to “interference”

[Knave]

Stutzle's stick remains on the ice to receive a pass on that play. This idea that was a deliberate attempt by him to take the stick out of the Carolina player's hands is ridiculous.

It was a blown call. Period. Just like at the end of that same period Pinto slashed the ice and thin air and that was 2 minutes. Another blown call. But apparently a Carolina player can repeatedly punch our player in the head while he's prone on the ice and that's not roughing.

The worst officiated game I have ever seen.

Should have been a 1-1 game and then who knows? Canes goalie was having a night for sure but it was a 3 goal swing caused by the horrific calls by Brenk and Markovic. Hard to make that up in a tight game.

In fairness to the officials, 2 of those 3 goals were the result of the Sens making a mindless shorthanded line change. If not for that, they had the penalty killed and it’s still 1–1.

As a Leaf fan this was worse than McDavid flicking away Tavares stick on the ice and setting up the game tying goal.

That shouldve been a penalty also. Baaaad look having two of these in one night go in different directions.

Yawn. I’ve seen a thousand calls worse than that.

You need a slahsing motion to slash someone’s stick oit of there hand. Should players just drop their sticks now when they’re near someone shooting?

He still made the guy lose his stick even if it was a weak. You aren't allowed to knock someones stick out of their hands.

I don't understand how the ref calls this interference on Stutzle...

”Knocking the d**k of Svechnikov out of his hands”

If true, I understand the no-goal call.

If it is a stick lift violent enough to send a stick flying when the puck is nowhere near either of them, then yes that is the definition of interference.

Same with putting your stick over another and holding it there. Ive personally seen both called for and against me.


That is not a natural "swing" for any NHL player who has a tap in. He puts his stick down aggressively on top of the shaft and holds it there so he couldnt lift his stick.

Thank you for posting a good video of it. It is even more clear it was interference now.

you realize you're allowed to stick check someones stick right?

like that's 90 percent the game of hockey, happens all the time in the corners, in faceoffs, in front of the net. they were both battling for the puck and for positioning for their sticks, your allowed to make contact with another stick in a battle.

the canes player was just reaching though so obviously had a weak grip on his stick. but why is that stutzles problem?

if that's interreferences, a call would be made every 10 seconds in hockey and games would last 7 hours.

? He didn't even know Svechnikov had stuck his stick out when he did it, and he wasn't looking at Svechnikov at all.

Putting his stick down steadily so that it can't easily get lifted is not interference, and this is not a slash.
