The problem then becomes deciding what context the hit is okay in. If it's with 2 minutes to go? That's less than a minute from the "moratorium" on hits. A 2-goal game?
Seems much easier to say that as long as the hit is okay in the first period, it's okay at the end. If the hit is late and deemed interference in the second period, same at the end. Regardless of time and score, we don't need to add more qualitative judgment to the reffing arsenal.
