I would disrespect Hall more if he actually let Clutterbuck off the hook for not being aware...especially when you consider how much of a physical player Clutterbuck is.
Hall wanted to make him pay with a shoulder hit. I don't think he could have foreseen it unfolding like it did, and thus no responsibility should be placed on him for altering course.
