· Did he target the head? No. As mentioned, each time he hit him in the torso. The first hit caught Kassian in a vulnerable position, but only because the idiot's head was already level with his waist for some reason.
· Were the hits late? No. Kassian still had the puck each time.
The calls for penalization are simply idiotic. Tkachuk is a world class hockey player with a world class hockey IQ.

This is the problem, right here. The Oilers think their team is world class, so when real world class is shown, they can't comprehend it.
