Default The high stick: the concept of height no longer has meaning

The high stick call:

I'll just say, my 4 year old daughter is 4 ft tall (regulation NHL net is 4 feet tall). Nate Thompson is 6', so likely about 6'3". He is ever so slightly crouched, but his stick is at or above shoulder height. At least 5' above the ice. The puck makes contact right at this point.





Here's the NHL's explanation, unfortunately, we all have eyeballs.
