    Clear pen that. Not sure why this is taking so long.

    Tarkowski just leans into the ball and blocks it with his arm.

    Certainly looked that way. A well taken pen that.

    indeed, the fact that his arm is by his side is irrelevant - he's leaning on a 45-degree angle to block the shot. It's not as if he can't get out of the way of it.

    Weird hearing people talk about well his arm was by his side, nothing in rules that say if you lean it’s a pen.

    100% agree… but if you move your body and therefore move your arm towards the ball and block a shot with your arm, then it’s clearly a penalty. If he doesn’t lean, he doesn’t block it therefor he moved his arm towards the ball. Not difficult to understand.
