Totally agree. I think that hockey right now is the best blend of speed/skill and ruggedness than ever before. I don't miss the mindless violence that often occurred in the past. Having said that, I thought the hit was at most a roughing penalty, and that's even debatable.
I respect differing opinions on this, but I'm quite shocked at some of the posters here that find this hit so egregious.
