In the Carter case, they missed a minor...so yes, overreaction by Keith.

The only reason that people noticed the Sedin hit was afterwards when Keith went out of his way and elbowed him in the face.
As for the puck being long gone, it was maybe a half second after the puck had left Keith's stick at most, it wouldn't have been an interference call. A high hit, yes. A maliciously dirty hit, not by any stretch. If Sedin were to receive one game for that hit Keith should have received 20 for his in my opinion... just look at the injuries inflicted on the play, the speed of both players and the legalities of the hit. Keith's was significantly worse, significantly dirtier and it goes to show his reputation as a cheap player, one that can't be ignored by stating that he was prevoked into acting like a goon.
Regardless we likely won't agree, so I will leave it at that.
