When deciding what to call, they seem to go by whether the player coming on the ice has engaged in the play (typically meaning - touching the puck) before the other player gets off.
The Flame coming on (can't remember who it was), hit the Shark who had the puck before the other Flame got to the boards. They call that every time.
