44.1 Clipping - Clipping is the act of throwing the body, from any direction, across or below the knees of an opponent.
A player may not deliver a check in a “clipping” manner, nor lower his own body position to deliver a check on or below an opponent’s knees.
An illegal “low hit” is a check that is delivered by a player or goalkeeper who may or may not have both skates on the ice, with his sole intent to check the opponent in the area of his knees. A player may not lower his body position to deliver a check to an opponent’s knees.

No need for the defenseman to go that low
 
Don't see how that's a penalty but I'll take it, look at brassard sticking up for Dorsett, is messier out there player coaching telling guys to stick up for each other...?
 
The proper hipcheck is hip on hip or hip on upper thigh. That was dangerously close to the knees. They'll call that every time. Faceoff was outside because Stralman joined the scrum.
 
Going for the knees, doesn't matter which part of the body. I thought that was a bad hit and am happy that Dorsett is okay.
