Dude's on his knees... hate that he got hit in the head, but "jump ball" pucks are always dangerous like that. No question it was a hit to the head, but I feel like match penalties need some discretion. I don't know, I need to see it more, but I understand Muzzin's thought process in the moment.
 
obviously that was an accident, **** call by the refs... you don't give a match for that, penalty sure, but not match! :rant: :shakehead
 
Tough break.
It don't agree with it being a 5 minute.
With all the intentional head shots that have been overlooked this is borderline at best
 
Uh no. That would be a misconduct. Match penalty puts the Kings short for five minutes and means an automatic review for Muzzin.

The automatic review, pretty much takes it's out of Refs hands. It's Saving them from having to do their jobs basically.
 
use some discretion? if that was James Neal we'd be losing our minds. I dont think Muzz meant to hit him in that fashion but its a bad hit either way...not 5 minute worthy, but a bad hit
How exactly is he supposed to use some discretion when the guy falls leaving him now time to avoid contact?
 
For sure, should've clarified that. Technically they are in NHL jail. I doubt they are there any longer than they have to be. Any veteran that signs there out gets traded there is probably on there way out of the nhl.

Ah ok, understand your point now. Agree.
