Minnesota Wild left wing Marcus Foligno, #17, works against Dallas Stars defenseman Jani Hakanpaa, #2, and Luke Glendening, #11, for control of the puck in the second period of Game 2 of an NHL hockey Stanley Cup first-round playoff series, Wednesday, April 19, 2023, in Dallas.
"It’s a joke," he said of the penalties, via The Athletic."It doesn’t make any sense. I go to hit a guy who touches the puck, it’s interference. I go, get high-sticked in the face. It’s not a tripping call when you hit a guy clean on. It’s bulls---." Foligno added,"There’s just something to be talked about the physicality part of it. I just feel like it’s a little bit chintzy right now. It doesn’t make any sense. This is playoff hockey. You go and hit a guy and it’s not illegal. … It’s clean and you’re getting called to the penalty box. "I don’t know. I think in that sense maybe they got to them before we did."
