Guy Boucher had a little Nicholson from 'The Shining' look as he argued that call with the zebra...

I have to agree Boss. I didn't see anything wrong with that hit.

If Krejci was more aware of how close MAB was to him then that hit would not have happened.

He threw his shoulder right into his head. The replay clearly shows it

That was a clean check. 100% clean. Man since when is a hit like that even a discussion. Sad days for the NHL.

Contact to the head and a hit targeted for the head are two completely different things. There was nothing wrong with that hit. And at least he didn't hold his head down and ram it into some blunt object that I can't remember the name of right now.

A year ago that was a clean hit. Not now. He made contact with the players head. You cant do that anymore.

Im not gonna go on and on and Krecji did not return to the ice for the rest of the period. That is what I am concerned about.

If it was a penalty or not really dont mean shit.

I did and there was for sure contact to the head.

Well all of the announcers between periods on VS disagree with you. So I guess we can all agree to disagree.

I have no dog in this fight and three other non Bruin fans in this thread say it was a clean hit.

Oh well, On with the game.

I have to disagree. Sure, his shoulder hit him in the head but what do you want MAB to do there? Low bridge him so he doesn't hit him in the head?

If you have your head down and you're watching the puck then you deserve to get hit. That doesn't fit the criteria of a blindside hit either. It was a horrible call imo.
