Ballard lowered his body and hit at the knees of Perry.

Freeze at 0.26sec of the video

No way, looks to be above the knees, his hip basically hits Perry around the belt buckle. (if he was wearing one)

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a hip injury,i didn't think the knee hyper-extended like the commentator indicated

On the Ballard hit...KB is short and CP is tall. If that's illegal, hip checks should just be banned.

A clip is anything knees or lower, worse if the player lowers himself to make the hit.

Looked like knee or above to me. Close.

Garbage hit ,I would club a guy with my stick if he bit me like that

I LIKED IT!!!

Yeah it's a bad sign when even "clean" hits looks so dirty.

Hemsky healthy scratched again tonight. With 2 goals, and 7 points in 25 games, he's got 2 more years at $4M. Easily one of the worst signings of free agency so far.

Ouch

The Score app on my phone just said no hearing for Robidas...fucking horseshit. No suspension for that forearm shiver that sent a 6'4" shitbrickhouse to the quiet room?

I didn't understand how it wasn't at least a double minor when it was called during the game. Wasn't Matthias bleeding from his mouth?

He was obviously injured on the play.

That's just a part of the magic that is the NHL...

Matthias is one of the bigger dudes in the league. To get felled by an elbow like that from a guy who is 5 inches shorter and 30+ pounds lighter tells me that it must've been a pretty damn violent (it sure looked that way live and in the replays). You're telling me a clear elbow to the jaw/face that results in a concussion and who knows what other injuries is just a minor penalty? That's not worthy of supplemental discipline? Really?

Elbow up? Check.

Primary point of contact is the head? Check.

Results in an injury? Check.

What other boxes need to get checked off on this one before the Dept. of Player Safety takes a look at it? To me this was at least as bad as Hansen's elbow on Hossa which resulted in a one game suspension.

That's it for Paul MacLean, apparently.

Fired.

Playing for the Canucks? Not checked... No suspension
