Again, Gudas was hit with a similar hit and could have easily been called a hit to the head...you know, there's a rule for that regardless of intent. No penalty called at all, play on.
Okay, no problem. So Tkachuk does the same thing, get swarmed by 3 guys and defends himself and his teammates.
Referees: "10 minute misconduct for....things."
It's a ridiculous double standard in this series based on reputation. It sucks.
