But if you think about it.. when he just got to the bench, TECHNICALLY he wasn't on just yet, and a man had already left the bench.. So if the referees really wanted to be dicks, they could've called "too many men on the ice" which would have called back that Roenick goal, and granted Toronto a powerplay.. Still though, GREAT hit.

If you're within 5' of the bench, and do not play the puck during a change, it's not too many men on the ice.
He wasn't going to be involved in making any plays and was struggling to get back over the boards. That isn't too many men.
