Doesn’t matter if it was a good hit or not…. In the new modern era of NHL hockey, any time a player gets demolished regardless of the situation…. A teammate goes or should go after the player who laid the smack down on their teammate…… back in the day a good clean hit was accepted and respected. The unwritten rule of the game are always changing.

Good hit. Thompson lunged too. Hit on Bastian against Flyers was way worse and didn't even get called a penalty
