I'm glad they didn't call that, but that was a penalty. I would have just been mad they called that after not calling earlier hits against the Isle.

can't complain about missed calls at this point because there have been plenty both ways

Yikes.

That is for sure a penalty...in the regular season. We've probably seen 5 or 6 hits from behind go uncalled in this game. I'm all for letting the players play, but I'd hate to see someone hurt because the refs had their whistles in their pockets.

Glad they didn't start with that call though for sure!

Look at the replay. He barely touched the guy, came to a complete stop before the "hit".

Nah, hit him from behind and drove him into the boards with his arm. Any time other than this game 7 with these refs that's a penalty. There have been many like that both ways tonight.
