It wasn't my partner. It was his partner from a game earlier in the season. But I don'tknow why he wiped the shot originally. Maybe it was still in the kid's hand when he made the contact? I didn't think to ask that.

Whoever it was, they didn't have any rules justification to change their call from a "charge" into a "block". That was my point.

Btw, welcome to the forum.
