Yes he can be committed He’s making the play that Van riemsdike doesn’t make the pass. You play Monday morning quarterback all the time watching in super slo-mo. It’s full contact hockey. You’ve mentioned once before you played at a high level. I’m not sure I’m buying it
The feet "leaving the ice due to contact" seems too lenient. It often looks like Rempe is throwing the check upwards so to leave the ice a moment after contact. If the receiving player were to disappear, Rempe's movement would be a jump.
I think the hit is worse – he doesn’t get a pass for being big. These are dangerous hits and guys are getting hurt .. I’ll say it again (there is simultaneous head contact) .. I feel like we are couple years away from NHL dictating no head contact allowed almost completely .. ie anything close to simultaneous head contact .. the players will adjust .. we are splitting hairs “ok” versus suspendable .. a dude died on the ice not long ago and the NHL cannot put itself in that kind of risk
It’s the playoffs, you can finish your checks. The timing of this hit was perfect, not too late. He had his chest and shoulder labeled the entire time he was turning.
The initial point of contact was TVR's face by Rempe's shoulder/arm. Launched upwards with feet leaving the ice. Perhaps Lindgren should have warned TVR and TVR should have had better situational awareness, but the distance that Rempe travelled to make this hit classifies it as charging. I'd say this is a clear major in the regular season, but because this is the playoffs, the Refs made the expected call.
"he's not leading with the shoulder, or making contact with his elbow or arm" exactly as the video is showing Rempe's shoulder and arm leading the hit on TVR and TVR's head snapping back. LOL! This guy's comedy gold.
regarding the contact, its surprisingly smooth for how mismatched they are in height and how sloppy rempe tends to look in most cases. Ironically, comparing this to the Panarin scrape hit, this contact is significantly more fair and inline with reasonable league expectations (minus the whole leg collection part which isn't that bad usually). Riemsdyk doesn't get his head launched separately from his body even though the shoulder does bump his head at VERY high speed. It could have had way more energy directed into the head e.g. panarin on oshie, messier on modano I appreciate the nuance you bring to the definition of the interference penalty.

Interesting. I have no idea how they called this in real time. Good job zebras
The refs finally made a good call on the playoffs! 🎉😂
My opinion was that this is not interference. However this video persuaded me that it is.
Rempe got a penalty for being big. They had to scrape him off the boards
Yes he can be committed

Clean hit. No penalty. Just refs desire to keep the peace.

This hit looks worst than the Dakota Joshua hit.
Reasonable analysis.

Clean hit
"hes driving his hips into the shoulder of his opponent" sounds so funny

Insane to get a hip check to the head hahaha, beautiful check, horribly timed
