Jesse Puljujarvi delivered this hit to Viktor Arvidsson and was instantly challenged into a fight by Phillip Danault. Danault got two for roughing and five for fighting. Puljujarvi ended up with two for interference and five for fighting. Tough Call will be reviewing the incident. Was the original hit interference? Should Danault have gotten a 2+5+10 for being the instigator? Have your say!

To be completely honest, I'm not sure how either of them got the extra 2 minute penalty. The hit wasn't that late, and that wasn't what I'd consider an instigator either.
Didn't see interference. Neither player changed their line. Instigating should be a five an ejection. Responding to someone dropping the gloves after a hit should not be a penalty. Should have been 10 minutes 5on 4 or 5 minutes 5 on 3, team on the power play gets the option.
No that's not interference at all, not even that late of a hit.
