    Default Kunitz - game misconduct

    A hit from behind and a head but. Great PiM on your way out the door.

    I just saw the replay, but it looked to me like Kunitz took the shot and Bailey came in for the hit. Kunitz just engaged earlier than Bailey was ready for.

    It looked like a pretty weak call. Anyone get a better look at it?

    Head-butting & hitting from behind? Surely this wasn't all in one move?

    Haha, I'm trying to picture how that would be anatomically possible.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    Thanks for the link... I'm assuming Yahoo had 'head butting' when they meant boarding unless he head-butted someone in the scrum??

    Hitting from behind is about right though.

    Edit: dangerous play in a Pens/Isles game, that's crazy talk!

    Thanks for the feed. Lets hope the NHL adds a challenge rule soon because the referees are hardly ever where they should be and miss way too

    Actually watched it again and it wasn't even a hit from behind.

    Point of contact was the shoulder. It was very close to being a hit from behind but IMO the shoulder was the initial point of contact. He might have launched him into the boards but it wasn't a hit from behind.

    According to Yahoo's player notes:

    There has been no update from the league regarding whether Kunitz might be suspended for a penalized check Saturday, but such a scenario appears unlikely.
    Without me, it's only "aweso".
