i see what youre saying but i dunno… still dont think its right… it was a pretty good check to the front of him…
if anyones ever been on skates and got pushed backwards like that, being caught off guard, youre gonna fall… i dont think he dove that time, it shoulda been a cross check. the fact that original penalty gets called and then a min later, they send ruutu to the box was dumb… call both right there, dont sit and think bout it
although i dont agree with the tripping penalty to franken-hatcher on malkin… malkin forced the penalty and hatch really didnt do anything.
