[quote name='speedracer']Please. It was a straight up board. He didn't leave his feet. He didn't even square up on him. It's a bummer Pietrangelo looks hurt, but that was about the least malicious boarding penalty ever. King's hand is the first thing to touch him. I mean seriously, c'mon. A major on that?
It's not even a penalty if Pietrangelo is doing anything other than standing between King and the puck. If he's moving, he absorbs the hit. If he's not near the boards, we're not even talking about it.
The league has already announced that the hit isn't something they're interested in.[/QUOTE]
King pushed him FROM BEHIND, causing him to smash his face into the board. No league review is par for the course in the last couple weeks. Oh well, to each his own, I guess. Beg to differ, and whatnot.
