Sheesh, gets fined for telling the truth. Looked like coach Q’s head was going to explode. Torres left his feet and his shoulder made contact with Hossa’s head, Hossa didn’t have the puck. The ref’s swallowed their whistles. I thought the league wanted to curtail this kind of play.
Obviously it was payback for Shaws brushing Yotes goalie Smith, who then went down like he was shot. He should have been given an embellishment penalty instead of Shaw getting a penalty and suspension. Makes me wonder if they want this type of game played for the playoffs, with all the crap allowed in the other series also.
That does put some perspective on why Raffi made the contact. The treatment of goaltenders had become somewhat more cavalier of late. It seems that goaltender interference isn’t called at all.
