I can buy his skate catching a rut causing him to lose balance. This isn't that. He actually kicks and forces his leg out like a karate side kick.

He may not have intended to kill the guy. But to me this looks like an intent to injure where the unthinkable happened. Petgrave has a reputation and has been ejected multiple times in the past. And even if this was an attempt to sell a hit, his poor decision to attempt to game the rules has cost another man his life, and that's manslaughter.

Horrific incident and something I never thought I'd witness in a hockey game at any level.
