Agree with scotty, I was screaming at the Wash Announcers on NHLnet that they kept driving home it was such a dirty hit. Step has never commited an intentionally dirty play since we've seen him. And the announcers failed to mention the dangerous crosscheck from behind which couldve sent Step headfirst into the boards.Craignoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-56575587030745571902011-02-26T08:58:47.089-05:002011-02-26T08:58:47.089-05:00Definitely not elbow to the head.

But even so, watch that video over and over, and Stepan is trying to shrug of the forthcoming hold from Green. Stepan wasn't even looking at Green; Green was coming in from behind and as much ran into Stepan as Stepan hit him. <br /><br />But given the head injury involved, who knows what will happen suspension-wise. However, who's to say the head injury didn't come when Stepan sat on Green's head after having his legs taken out by the sliding/off-balance Green? Is falling down on someone suspension-worthy?<br /><br />What I REALLY want is more than one camera angle on the incident.<br /><br />Oh, and Prospal's goal celebrations are epic! :)Randomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-37765121040949051002011-02-26T07:41:50.508-05:002011-02-26T07:41:50.508-05:00It's been a while since anatomy 101, but there...It's been a while since anatomy 101, but there's no way that was an elbow to jaw hit. I'll give you shoulder, maybe upper arm, but no elbow. This is hockey, fellows. If you take out that hit from the game, you might as well take all hitting out of the game and call it "ice-ket ball - the second most boring sport in the world."Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11475304953684560462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-48357184184955826732011-02-26T06:54:43.164-05:002011-02-26T06:54:43.164-05:00Who the hell would actually WANT Erik Christensen?...Who the hell would actually WANT Erik Christensen? And how can you say that Stepan's hit is not suspendable? It is a clear head shot with an elbow. Obviously the refs missed Green's crosscheck on Stepan, but come on--that was an elbow to the jaw, a textbook definition of a headshot.mikenoreply@blogger.com
