I'm primitive enough to have played at a time where that initially was just two guys having it out....when the two guys are in close and these jabs to the ribs...still hurts and worth a call. But reaching out as the other guy is pulling away and it's more of a chop that's a bit excessive.
In this case probably a fine. He's likely angry after the play because Lindholm went towards the play and he ended up reaching to get him back. Stupid Hertl.
