Rule 42 of the NHL rulebook dictates that charging "shall mean the actions of a player or goalkeeper who, as a result of distance traveled, shall violently check an opponent in any manner. A 'charge' may be the result of a check into the boards, into the goal frame or in open ice." The infraction may warrant any severity of penalty or combination of penalties as the officials deem fit, including a major plus a game misconduct, or suspension if the infraction results in injury to the opposing player.”

Charging - A minor or major penalty shall be imposed on a player who skates, jumps into or charges an opponent in any manner.

Obviously if you're standing still it's not physically possible to "jump into" someone. Are these bozos going to call every player who jumps to grab a loose puck or leaves their feet to turn away from a hit? Of course not.

f***ing clowns
