It's a high stick.
A thousand times, it's a high stick. Just because you can't see the stick and the crossbar in the same frame from the replays doesn't mean it isn't high. It's angled upwards from his chest/shoulders. In any universe, that's a high stick. I've seen that deflection height called down in the past a few times.
The absolute worst part is the explanations for these calls. They don't explain how they got to their decision, beyond a brief unsupported conclusion. It's fishy as hell, and not nearly transparent enough.
Something's wrong here.
