Sorry, Grumpa, there is an exception in the rulebook. Player committing the infraction must have his stick above his own waist

The rulebook picture you are showing is from 23-24. The rule was amended for clarity. This is from the 2025–26 rulebook. The players shoulders of the player being hit must be above the waist of player committing the infraction

Mtl-Buf too-many men. Player came on and got in the way of the puck carrier while his teammate was still on the ice. Correct call. Here is the applicable rule....

The rule you are referring to concerns leaving the bench in a fight situation. If he is considered off the ice but then goes back to start a fight, he left the bench. Here is the relevant rule. It was applied correctly.

Here is a pic of the instant the PHL too-many men was called. CAR has 5 players on the ice

...a legal line change. A team might at some point, have 10 skaters on the ice at the same time but as long as everyone is 10' from the bench and no one deliberately plays the puck, then it's a legal line change. Also, puck was 100' from CAR bench...2/2

The video you posted takes place after the high stick

Nope. Not wrong. Sorry Led

How's this, Led?
