Oh, really? You were trying to cleanly forecheck... when down multiple goals in the final minute of play and your teammate, Zach Kassian, already riding him into the wall? I'm sure it's just a coincidence that you came in high. You made zero effort to slow down at all when you clearly saw that the D-man was being taken out and there was an actual chance to go for the puck. But it was a clean forecheck. Yeah, right.

My thoughts as well on that hit. Vulnerable player, hits him high, doesn't care where the puck was.
Even if it wasn't deemed suspension-worthy by the NHL, it doesn't mean it wasn't a very, very cheap hit.
