First, I am not a Jets fan. I don't really have a rooting interest in this series, aside from wanting it to be a sweep for someone - now that Montreal has won Game 1, I want them to win the next 3.

Second, I don't think it was an "innocent, harmless play". It was clearly not harmless. A guy went off on a stretcher. But the people describing what happened are in fantasy land. They're talking about things that did not happen. Which is insane, because there's video evidence of it.

Third, I don't think it was at full speed - If he'd wanted to skate straight into the hit he could have. He stopped skating well before.
