How is this a two minute penalty?



Seriously though. Can someone please explain to me how this can be downgraded? What exactly are they looking for to make it a 5-minute major?

  1. How does every major called against us get downgraded? Same answer.

    Criteria for a major penalty:

    ✅ Elbow is used maliciously

    ✅ Hits opponent between the numbers

    ✅ Defenseless opponent forced into boards

    ✅ Attacker uses an upward motion and leaves his feet

    ❌ Victim plays for any team but CBJ

    As you can see by the checklist above, this is obviously a minor penalty. You can clearly see that Gudbranson is at fault because he is wearing a CBJ sweater.
