It took frame by frame analysis to see that he hit his head a micro split second before his chest. Not a targeted action, not did he adjust to go for the head or was it a reaction or retaliation. Nor defenseless position or along the boards.
At most the refs missed a check to the head call but in real time it doesn't look like that. Does every check to the head call, again, this could be called that only if they watched frame by frame by frame of a replay, get a hearing?
Zadorov is also 4 to 5 inches taller then the guy.
