Personally, I'm still of the belief that in the moment Wideman meant to do it. Lapse of judgement, but he nailed him.
Filing against the Flames I'm less on board with.

Right but it was Hendersons job to enforce the rules that he became a victim of. Had Henderson stopped the play when Wideman was injured or called a penalty to the hit against Wideman, Wideman wouldn't have had to skate to the bench confused and concussed.
I'm not saying anyone is at fault, but sometimes these things just suck and there's really no recourse or justice.
