NHL GMs Discuss Goaltender Interference, Diving 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Mar 17, 2015 2:47 am

Goaltender interference and diving were the main topics on the agenda during the first day of the NHL's general managers meetings Monday.

The group went over what constitutes interference and how it is currently being interpreted, with further discussion expected Tuesday on possible expanded video review to address the issue. 

Although there seems to be a growing concern about how interference is interpreted and officiated, there is also some reluctance to introduce any additional review that could impede the natural flow of the game.

Penguins general manager Jim Rutherford, however, seemed to feel differently on the subject and said that his small group seemed open to implementing change.
