Charge vs Block

[Adam]

Don't look so much at where the contact is as what the defender did wrong. If he has LGP, see if he maintains it and don't penalize him if he does. A no-call could be in order if the contact is that slight, otherwise a charge is likely to be the call.

Exactly. If the defender is in position and the only reason they don't take it straight in the chest is because the opponent adjusted so they hit off-center, I'm am NOT penalizing the defender.

However, if it is off-center where the only contact is on the shoulder and it is so because that is all the defender could get in front of the opponent prior to contact, I'm likely to consider that such a defender never made it into the path.
