The thing I found interesting (watched the canuck feed on CI), is that in the intermission the canuck cronies mentioned that Edler has a reputation to fake playing the puck and then hit the player. I've never noticed it before so now I will keep an eye out for that. I think maybe a rookie like Hertl may not have been up to speed on that.
Then what's to stop players from bending over with their heads out in front of them when handling the puck? Are they now immune from physical contact?



Hertl looks like he's sitting on an invisible chair.
