2) Guy plays on the edge and a bit recklessly, charges, but isn't the type to cheap shot and go for head shots.

3) Look at the Buffalo player's head. Why is he bending over so much. Yea, Rinaldo makes contact with the head, but Ruhwedel could do a better job protecting himself.

Sad part for him is that he just got promoted from the 4th line to the 2nd line. He got a goal in that game, plenty of ice time, and just blew a great opportunity for himself.
wut? He jumped and threw his elbow at his head. Has a dirty hit ever been more clear than this one?
