Acciari hit by Dillon - 5min major (suspended 3 games)

Why would he not be eligible to be hit there? I mean, he's skating into the opponent's blueline face first for absolutely no reason. Dillon is barely moving, Acciari pretty much skates into him. Nothing elevated.

Sorry but that's not even a penalty to me. Learn to receive a hit.
 
As a Pens fan I do think it's a bad hit but I will also say that Acciari kinda Lindrosed himself a bit as well by skating with his head down that low near the boards. Like that's just asking to get concussed like that.

No question Acciari sorta stumbles and lunges forward. I think Dillon had time though and and the part of the clip shown from the far side and Dillon's back shows him slightly leave his feet.

Anyway he hits him is gonna hurt, but there's a way to make that hit and make it clean.
