I personally don’t see it as split second. He skates nearly the full length of the ice in a straight line, and Evans is extended and vulnerable and does not make any last minute or unpredictable move to change his position unexpectedly

I think what saves him is there's an empty net and so sprinting the length of the ice at full speed is an understandable action. Otherwise, this would probably be like 10 games
In this case, I think Scheifele can argue he was making a defensive play and just got a little carried away
