With respect to this hit, was it in the back? Absolutely. Have I seen 5 to 10 hits so far in the pre-season that were at least as blatant in the same regard? But didn't get reviewed? Absolutely.

I know most fans say this about their team and I’ve always scoffed when flames fans have said it in the past. But over the past 5 years or so I’ve increasingly become convinced that there is an unconscious bias against the Flames and probably a few other teams as well.
