That hit should be clean. He had to see Kaleta coming he looked right at him and tried to turn away at the very last second - Ross was willing to take a hit to make a play, and this time he should of warded off the defender first, then passed the puck. Its cowardly to look right at a guy, pass the puck away and then turn to the boards at the last sec and pretend your in a safety zone
so the fact he dived to draw a call doesnt seem like a dick move.... fact is the original hit should not be a suspension cause Ross turned... I have seen much worse hits in the past go unpunished... oh and I am a die hard, hardcore hockey/flyers fan
Stop your bitching you idiots. I respect some of you who say, "oh this was a good game" etc, but most of you bitch and whine saying "Kaleta is a cheapshot, etc" The point of Hockey is to have fun.
i can't stand these assholes that think that throwing cheap hits and flopping is part of the game. since when did this become a legitimate part of hockey? these guys are gutless pussies who disgrace the game and don't belong in it. and as for the pieces of shit who actually cheer this garbage on, go fuck yourselves and leave hockey to the real fans.
All the BS talking, do you know who caused that hit? The dumbshit goaltender!!! Kaleta's job and expertise is to slam players and largely in a legal fashion. This was just unfortunate because the player couldn't brace for the hit (saw it coming) because the GT threw the puck on him.
Really he didn't though. He got five for boarding and Cote got two for roughing so all he did was reduce the Flyers' power play. I know what you're saying is normally the case but is that the kind of hockey you want to watch? Cheap shots to draw a power play?
Take cover!!!!! Wow what a pussy, this was exactly like the Liambas hit in the OHL. The guy turned his back last second, I don't think it was a dirty hit.
SABRES FANS DO NOT LOVE KALETA. Those who were born after 1990, love Gary Bettmans version of the NHL, or dont know jack fuck about hockey......Im sure. But not a real fan of the game and the way it should be played.
kaleta better hope he gets scratched from the next game... i think danny carcillo might have something to say about this... but i mean he has done this before and it has happened to him he is a horrible player, he was clearly trying to hurt him.
Kaleta does his job 95% of the time. DRAW A POWERPLAY for his team. He can hit like a ton of brick's and, Turtles like the ice he's on is a pond. Usually getting the powerplay. The hit was no diffrent than the one on him by OV the other night and, he got the same punishment. SABRES FANS LOVE KALETA..
Me too. Sabres fan who thinks Kaleta's a rat. Love how tough he is with his visor and gloves cemented on. Hides behind the instigator rule. Someday, he's going to get the same thing that happened to Ulf Samuelsson courtesy of Tie Domi.

I think its a disgrace that he turtled but the Flyer turned at the last second so the hit is defendable, the turtling is not.

No way any Sabres' fan will come in and defend Kaleta turtling. Surely not.
