Los Angeles Kings head coach Darryl Sutter interrupted Tuesday's shootout versus the Edmonton Oilers to have Ben Scrivens cover the orange tape at the knob of his stick with mandatory white.

His demand, albeit completely arbitrary, is within league rule, though it failed to faze the former Kings netminder, who was seen chuckling as an official hurried to shroud his orange tape.

Scrivens answered with a stop on Anze Kopitar before turning aside two more tries to earn the victory, only the Oilers' second against Western Conference competition this season.

From the NHL Rulebook:

10.2 Goalkeeper's Stick - In the case of a goalkeeper's stick, there shall be a knob of white tape or some other protective material approved by the League. This knob must not be less than one-half inch (1/2") thick at the top of the shaft.

Sutter had this to say after the game.
