Today a new clip of the supposed knee-on-knee hit that led to the ejection of Warren Foegele has been released and it has fans questioning why the call was made.

During Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals, Edmonton Oilers forward Warren Foegele was ejected for a knee-on-knee hit to Eetu Luostarainen. At the time of the call, the broadcast angle seemed to show clear evidence of knee-to-knee contact.
Warren Foegele was assessed a game misconduct for this knee-on-knee hit on Eetu Luostarinen.

Thoughts on the call?

Warren Foegele was ejected and the Florida Panthers would end up winning the game. Since the game ended this call has been a point of contention for the Edmonton Oilers fans and now a new video seems to vindicate them.

This morning a new video was posted by a fan who was in attendance at the game. The video shows the reverse angle of what the television crews got. At the new angle, it looks like there is barely any knee-on-knee contact if any at all.
This new angle has Edmonton Oilers fans feeling outraged but relieved that their thoughts about the penalty being overblown were not incorrect.

The video posted on X has gotten a lot of engagement in particular from Edmonton Oilers fans. Many of them are furious that the call was a major and pointed out no penalty should've been assessed at all.
Foegele should never had 5 min penalty or game misconduct

It was an even worse call than we thought.

That's not even significant knee on hip contact

Regardless of the Edmonton Oilers fans' thoughts on the play it was called a penalty and the Oilers are down 2-0 in the series. Game 3 takes place tonight and the Oilers will return to their home crowd in what feels like a must-win game.
