I think it's suspensions worthy. Blindside hit, arms eventually hit his head... What do you guys think?

It deserved a penalty, but not much more.

League looked at it and determined no suspension.

We all know that means absolutely nothing.

More like, especially in a Stanley Cup Final. Regardless, like I said. All it deserved was a penalty, and nothing more.

Well they said they wanted to suspend head hits. This was a head hit, blind side, and it hurt Toews.

That's an extremely high traffic area. If you cut across the middle like that, you can't be expecting not to get clocked. It's pretty grey area, I think.

Boychuk easily could've kept his arms down, lowered his shoulder, and laid a body check. But his hands hit the head, and blindsided him. Even though it's a high traffic area, it doesn't justify the hit.

looked to me like toews was lowering his center at the same time. i don't think it's worth more than a penalty

Lowering his center? Besides faintly bended knees, I don't see him putting himself in a vulnerable position. Boychuk could've easily avoided hitting him in the head. It's not like he was bending over.

It looked more like the shoulder and the back. It looks like interference.

I stand by my notion that there was no way it was an inevitable head shot.

very few hits are inevitable. responsibility goes to both parties, because you can't just give the offense every bit of leeway there is

Well if it's not inevitable, and he could've not hit the head, I don't see why he's not suspended. That's the only rule; don't hit dirty. He hit him in the head.

The league said they were banning hits that target the head. Boychuk put his arms up and hit him in the head. Seems illegal to me.

Again, coming across the middle, moving as quickly as these players do, that's a huge grey area for the NHL to mandate a suspension. With so many different things happening in front of the net, many different issues come into play.

Besides, it looks more like his hands contact the shoulders and slide up a little bit. It doesn't really look like a direct hit to the head.

Coming across the middle has little to do with it. I don't see why it would. It doesn't magically impede Boychuk's ability not to hit him in the head. Idk. Agree to disagree?
