while i think Bourne isnt wrong about Torres, that hit was a hockey play, fully supported by Stoll himself (the hittee) http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/2013/05/27/stoll-torres-hit-was-a-hockey-play/
torres probably should have got a little lower, but he went for a shoulder to shoulder hit on a guy who was bent over reaching for the puck. i dont see anything wrong with it. a glancing head blow? wtf doe sthat mean...clearly doesnt line up with the rule of "intentionally targeting the head and making it hte primary point of contact", it was neither of those two things.
Even the sharks org defended the hit, rightfully so, and got a nice fine for it, haha. doesnt make sense when the rule was clearly not broken. good hockey play, play on boys!
