If the hits in question were an issue the refs(ideally) would have called the infraction as it happened...as they did in the Minnesota game 2 days prior by calling Rinaldos check to the head Penalty. Moreover.... the NHL would have not only called Kassian for a hearing, but also Tkachuk.

I am appalled at the CBC panel who was covering the game justifying Kassians actions. WOW. Kelly Hrudey specifically.... a Goalie in the 80's has zero credibility from your career to base an opinion on...He's never taken a hit outside a puck his whole life.

I hope the spotlight this has attracted opens the eyes to a lot of NHL executives.



..PS..Noone has talked about Mcavi socking Tkachuk in the back of the head before Kassian went postal.
