Head is principal point of contact - or does that not count anymore? For me that's a headshot and I think that whether it is or isn't as far as the league is concerned seems to depend on who is doing the hitting and who is doing the receiving - which is a massive joke.Eh, I watched the hit, it's borderline for sure but I didn't think it was illegal, and I'm super-nitpicky when it comes to hits. He raises the shoulder as he comes in but Knies is also ducked down a bit, so I could see a call there but I'm okay with that one being declared clean. And there's been comparisons to the Trouba hit, but like I said before there are elements to that one that I think DO make that one illegal...though I'll admit I'm not a Trouba fan at all.
The fact that the golden turds got a PP out of that is stupid and ridiculous.
