The Desharnais call on Stutzle for interference, I am sorry but if that's a penalty, then the NHL needs to go to non contact.

They are both skating to get the puck. Stutzel along the boards, Vinnie skating towards him. Both make contact with the puck. The direction Vinnie is coming at to get to the puck, unless he slams on the brakes or jumps the opposite direction, his skating momentum will cause him to make contact with the player. There is no avoiding it. It's not from behind, it's not high, he didn't slash him or grab him, it's not even a hard hit, it's a rub out that happens probably 50 times a game when 2 guys are skating towards a puck and one is along the boards. It didn't even knock him down. Did it stop him from going forward, sure but again, to avoid that, Vinnie either can't go after the puck at all or slam on the brakes as soon as the puck gets hit.

If they are going to call that, then what about the slash to the back of the leg that Stutzel gave? Slashing at the back of a guys leg is not a hockey play. That's illegal according to the rules.


Stutzle is a generational penalty drawer, probably only rivalled by Pettersson. Some of these players just have the uncanny ability to make any contact with them look like it should be called a penalty on the other team.

Not sure what you can do about it, the refs obviously never learn.
