Rule 56.2: a minor penalty for interference shall be imposed -(v) on a player who deliberately knocks the stick out of an opponents hand, or prevents a player who has dropped his stick and any other piece of equipment from regaining possession of it
The key word here is deliberately. That was not deliberate. Hold onto your stick

#reqeust Johnston vs MacDermid fight
You are allowed to lift the stick. It's the defender who doesn't hold on to it. Absolutely botched penalty. Should be a goal.
Didn't he get benched after this?
Jens! PLEASE show the xhekaj bs penalty!!! Accepts a fight, gets attacked from behind, and the only one penalized is xhekaj
That's not a penalty… Might as well let go of your stick every time someone tries to lift it then so that way your opponent gets the penalty.
And he's traded
Hold on to your stick?
crazy, cant even lift opponents stick anymore
looks like ill be flinging my stick everytime someone lifts it in my zone. need those extra power plays.
