Stupid play by Diaz, and if you're Gryba you can't pass up a chance to hit a guy in that scenario or you'll wind up on the bench pretty quick. Unfortunate outcome as it looked like Eller turned up the ice just as he got the puck, and that changed Gryba's angle on the hit which made him clip Eller's head instead of getting all body.

Even if the head was contacted, that's allowed. As long as it's not from the blind side, which it wasn't.
