I totally agree. Crosscheck all you want...sometimes the refs will let it go if it doesn't impact the game too much...sometimes you will get 2 minutes...but in the event that you cross-check a guy and it results in a serious injury no matter how routine the cross-check was and it effects the game (team leading scorer and captain out of the game), then 5 minute major is warranted. I don't see the problem, but i get it that some do.

This is exactly the problem people have with NHL officiating though. Depending on circumstance, the same play gets called differently. Call the crosscheck consistently, or rewrite the rule.
