This may be a tough watch for Sens' fans, but Tim Stützle may have just embellished a bump from Montreal defenseman Arber Xhekaj. At first, it looked really bad.

However, after watching it a few times and seeing how Xhekaj followed through with on his shove, I think the only real criticism one can place on Stützle here is that he needs to be stronger on his feet.

It does look like the former third-overall pick sold it, and he garnered a reputation of diving last season after long-time Hab Brendan Gallagher called him out for it.

Tim Stützle gets a pass from me on this one, but he had better keep it tight this season. Otherwise, teams are going to start taking liberties with him.
