I DON'T like this and I don't like the precedent it sets.
Clutterbuck being fined for that is a crock of ****, he didn't fall, he didn't jump, he just recoiled his arm, slightly.
The NHL is attacking the wrong problem. They're treating the symptom rather than the root cause.
Guys are embellishing and diving because refs aren't calling hooks and slashes. After the 05 lockout they had to regularly be reminded to reinforce the rules to prevent obstruction. If they don't, it creeps back into the game.
