The quietest career-ending hit of the season.

The only ones who raised a stink about it were Flames fans. Nothing from the NHL, their silence was so telling. They want to get rid of head shots, but a player like Smid?..........apparently it's not a big deal. I'm sure if that was Ferland on Crosby we'd still be hearing about it.

So stunningly sad. They need to get their act together. How someone's career can be ended and the player who committed the act gets not so much as a fine is just unbelievable.
