i really dont see what the problem with that hit is other than carcillo hits him early. sure gilbert flies int oteh boards weird but it wasnt a head shot, wasnt illegal in any sense, just hit him too early. gilbert knows he's gonna get hit, thats not icing. maybe wouldnt expect it that early . i dont know. i dont see how thats 8 games. i would give that a fine at least. i just dont see how thats a major penalty other than a potential injury to the hittee. wasnt a hit from behind, not a headshot, sure an early hit, gilberts gotta know he's gonna get hit. as he gets ready for the hit carcillo just pushes him so hard he gets destroyed.
if he gets more than 2 games then its bullshit. engelland shoiuld get more for his hit than this one. just my opinion.
