I have not watched much Calgary, and even less Rooney but when I have watched that guy he does absolutely nothing to protect himself.
 
the one thing is it seems like rielly knows exactly where to put the puck for nylander and matthews

marner wasn't always as crisp with it

They don't always call high sticks lol

I can't think of many examples of the ref clearly seeing them and not calling them.

They get missed sometimes because they're obstructed or they happen where the refs aren't looking, but I can't think of any examples off the top of my head where the refs see it and don't call it.

I.e. The famous Kerry non-call Gretzky/Gilmour, he didn't see it, and he went to his linesemen, who both said they didn't see it, otherwise it would have been called and maybe we'd have a cup, who knows. If you rewatch the clip, you don't notice it in real time either, you just see Gilmour sprawled all of a sudden.

Only blatant example I can think of is on that powerplay just before Kerfoot’s GWG in Game 4 against Tampa, Willy got high-sticked on the zone entry and it was uncalled. Doesn’t matter but I think that’s an example of the refs letting a high-stick go.
