I was at the game last night sitting in the attack zone. You could tell with 12 mins left that this game was going to get chippy due to the missed calls. Hell, the amount of times I saw Karlsson just slash Tkachuk was ridiculous. As a fan, if you can see this happening there is absolutely no excuse that as a player you shouldn't be aware of your surroundings. This hit was all on Simek. Unlike some, I totally believe the keep your head up mentality. This is hockey. If you don't like legal checks even if they are late in the game then do yourself a favour and go watch figure skating.
