Watch: Lightning power play capitalizes on phantom high-stick call

Washington Capitals forward T.J. Oshie was issued a two-minute high-sticking minor in the first period of Game 2 against the Tampa Bay Lightning, even though his stick never touched Victor Hedman's face.

It's clear on the replay that Oshie's stick tipped the fluttering puck as Hedman went to catch it. When the puck changed direction off Oshie's blade, it hit Hedman in the face, which is why he went down.

On the ensuing power play, Steven Stamkos blasted home a one-timer that gave the Bolts a 2-1 lead Sunday night.

It may have been a tough call for the referee to make in the heat of the moment, but the Capitals likely don't feel much sympathy.
