You're right it's not the ice capades. I have seen the hit several times now. The rules state that a player may not leave his feet delivering a blow. I guess he did not leave his feet. It also looked to me as he delivered the most force of the blow with his helmet. Maybe I saw that wrong too. Like I said, the NFL office has said it was a legal hit. Legal hit questionable, but definitely unnecessary. The Packer players now need to show Clifton they got his back. I'm quite sure they will be meeting in the post season. I don't know, but from everything I have seen about this incident there are as many people saying it was a cheap shot as saying it was a legitimate hit. It all depends on your perspective I guess.
