Has to be Bennett's skate.
It's probably the combination of the two that led them to assuming interference, given all the bodies in the area. Could be argued either way, IMO. Just think their explanation wasn't good enough. Telling GG the exact point of contact that was ruled interfering with the goaltender would've been acceptable. Not "the call on the ice was interference, so it is overruled". That kind of ambiguity and shrugging off of an important call is simply not doing your job correctly.
That's why I think either the supervisor needs to step in and speak to them about that, or they should be replaced. That was just unacceptable in playoffs. Oh, but more so changing the standards of what's a holding penalty conveniently minutes after a Duck player does the same thing Hamilton does.

definitely possible... i just think that if that's the case, then Holzer should have gotten a penalty for pushing Bennett into the net...
i just hate the inconsistency of the NHL... its pretty ridiculous... and as GG noted, its not even inconsistency of game to game or crew to crew... yesterday, the inconsistency was from one period to the next.
absolutely unacceptable level of officiating
