Ivan Barbashev absolutely NAILS Jalen Chatfield 😵💣

he never touched the puck. The puck was still out of his reach on contact. Should be a 2 min interference no?

bro was not playing the puck

Remember when a few months ago a lot of people claimed skates never go above someone’s shoulders and if they do it has to be intentional?

@ESPNRefNHL Dave, help me here. Is this not interference? It’s not because they looked at each other and ‘kind’ of both engaged? Optics makes me feel like a call was missed. If not, I want to learn.

So how is this not a penalty but Blais’ hit earlier today was interference?.. #stlblues

Absolutely clean shoulder check from Barbashev!!! That’s the hitting that belongs in the NHL!

Barbashev spun around fully expecting someone to go after him. lol

That is a great hit, but it's also totally Interference. You can't blast a guy who hasn't played the puck yet. There was an exact same play last night in the Blues/Preds game and the call WAS made. Just showcasing how ridiculous NHL officiating is.

Nice hit but should have been interference. I don’t know if it was called there
