  1. For the record, Rule 48 only provides the refs the option of a 2 minute minor or match penalty for a hit to the head. That's why that was the call.

  2. Good call. He had plenty of time to go lower. Probably a fine but hope he gets more. Chatfield is an important piece for the Canes and is a extremely underrated defenseman. He is very Slavin like!

  3. Video slowed down to .25 speed looks like right shoulder to right shoulder to me. I was sitting right there and it was hard to tell live.

  4. Bro he hit him dead center in his chest. Made his shoulders clap. If his head was the principal point of contact on that hit, Chatfield would have been stretchered off.
