Looked into this...was told skates on the ice at contact, not an illegal Check to the Head as there is some head contact but head is not the main point of contact, elbow is tucked. Clean hit.
Skate on the ice at contact should not be the determining standard. If he is in the act of jumping into a hit, whether he is airborne before contact or after is irrelevant. The point should be that he jumped into the hit and therefore illegal
