I understand the gloves being dropped as Toews is their captain, someone has to do something. Still, I don't think the play should have been stopped since the hit created a two on none the other way. The goal should have counted, and Mitchell should not have received a roughing minor.
It has to do with keeping people honest. Even though its a clean hit. Its like saying, you can lay a huge hit on my player, but your going to pay a price for it. More to intimidate a player from making a hit like that. Plus trying to get some momentum back. No one likes to see someone get hit like that clean or dirty.
@vantuba25 hey remember when Kesler tried to fight Ladd, and got hit in the eye once and gave up by wrestling to the ice? Then calling Ladd a coward? For what? Because Kesler gave up fighting him? At least Toews had the class to admit he was looking down. Call the Hakws pussies. You got the Sedin sisters who get scared in the playoffs because it's more brutal, then you got whiners like Kesler and Burrows.
Im not trying to start an argument over a computer screen, I'm just a Canucks fan and we beat you guys 5-1 last time we played a week ago. Just like I called the blackhawks pussies, your not being any different calling the Sedin's sisters. Thats why Henrik is one of the best in the league and Burrows has over twenty three goals this season.... See you in the playoffs!
Ok, your first comment was just dumb. His dad's a politician so he deserves to get hit lik ethat? He deserved to get hit like that because he had his head dow.
Secondly, Toews dad is not a politiian. You're thinking of Vic Toews. They may be related but it's a pretty common mennonite name.
It's strange nowadays that you have to fight after a clean hit. I understand if you are elbowing or kneeing, but..! Even stars have to keep their heads up! It doesn't make sense to give a punch and after that you have to drop gloves and spend next 5 mins in penalty box!
I wouldn't say Destroyed. Just a good hard hit. He came out of the box so Towes never saw it coming, thats what get hm the most. As far as momentum changeing, alot of that had to do with penelties that never should have been called.
I doubt he would, he did nothing wrong. Hockey is the craziest sport, because there are times when you are looking to hurt a player, but not really hurt him, you know? In hockey there's such a fine line...best sport in the world i say
man i love being a mitchell :D

Dude, every team in the league does that now. A star player gets hit and even if it's clean, players are screaming for blood. It's retarded.

Clean hit, but as I hope Toews is alright,
I'd bet money Mitchell regrets this hit.
