Question is what took Bollig so long to go over and rough up Aulie after a team veteran was laid out with a cheap hit? Isn't keeping players honest supposed to be why Bollig is on the ice?
3) When was the last time the Flames had a big open ice hit from our blueline? I honestly can't recall.

Really it doesn't matter, these are essentially out of the game. Big open ice hits = penalties. Positional play is much more importantant and a better strategy then looking for a big hit.
