Matthew Tkachuk assessed penalty after saving fans from flying puck

Calgary Flames forward Matthew Tkachuk may have received the most interesting penalty call ever assessed in the NHL.

The young forward was on the bench when a puck was shot near the bench, and he jumped up to stop it from possibly going into the stands and striking a fan. He ended up deflecting the puck straight down with some incredible hand-eye coordination, but he did receive a minor interference penalty.





It was difficult to determine if the puck would have gone out of play or not, but nevertheless it was a pretty cool act of athleticism from the young star despite the penalty.
