Not a huge difference in what Nurse did in comparison to Jooris. Nurse received 3 games.

There is no padding on the back of the leg. It doesn't take much to collapse from a whack on that part of the leg, especially at the knee.

I also think the "love tap" everyone is talking about is downplaying the severity a tad.
