For some reason the NHL has decided that you can nutshot players like that and there's zero issues with it. I haven't the slightest clue why that's acceptable.

Dangerous spot, but that's not a boarding call in any sense of the rule.

Looks like you need a refresher from the rule book.

Boarding in ice hockey is a penalty called when an offending player pushes, trips or checks an opposing player violently into the boards of the hockey rink.

Hope that helps you.

Mike Babcock always looks serious, sometimes it's hard to tell if he's happy or not.

And what Quincey did to Silfverberg was more violent and to the head but you and your homerism won't admit that was a penalty

And maybe you need in refresher in how rules are actually enforced.

It is virtually never called when contact is initiated on a shoulder and the other shoulder is what goes into the board. Which is what happened here. Based on a strict interpretation of the rule, just about every check thrown against the boards is technically boarding. Clutterbuck would finish every single shift he ever played sitting in the penalty box.
