It would be hilarious if the result of the NHL review is that Chimera was suspended and Scuderi isn’t.

With all this talk about the hip check did everyone forget about the elbows the CBJ’s were throwing around for the rest of the game? The last one on Frolov was a clear that the player was head hunting! Will that be reviewed?

Can’t hip check someone at or below the knees. Not possible. It would be idiotic to attempt to take out someone’s knee with your ass. And Chimera didn’t suffer any kind of knee injury. He landed on his face. That’s frankly not Scuderi’s fault. A hip check is supposed to toss the player head over heels. That’s the point.

I hate it when they throw “dirty hit” around like a hackey sack in a hippy commune. Its just way too subjective. They make you think that “Intent to injure” and “dangerous maneuvers” are always so apparent, when really its predominantly about whether the guy gets injured or not. Because guys throw their back to the checker at the last minute sometimes, or they have their head down, and its automatically a dirty hit when they get hurt.

Of course you dont go for a dudes legs, and Scuderi was lower than the average level for a hip check. But really, they woulda praised Scuderi’s hit if had Chimera not used his face as a belt sander on the ice. Most hipchecks ive seen involve the shoulder/arm/hip/butt making contact with the thigh/knee region of the recipient anyways, which is (and ill agree with you) where he made contact. the “below the knees” is ridiculous. If Scuderi went below the knees he woulda fallen down im sure, but he kept his skates.

In the super slo-mo I feel like I see his knee tweak on impact juuuust before the contact with the thigh happens, because the knee was angled awkwardly. I wasn’t right on the ice though, so I don’t know. It might explain why Chimera’s so convinced of the knee thing, if he felt that first.

I’m with you on no intent to injure; usually the guy doesn’t land on his face. Did he miscalculate by going too low? Agh. I do think an attempt to check regularly went awry.
