I'm actually kind of annoyed. There's legitimately no precedent for suspending a player in the playoffs for that kind of hit. I don't even know how they managed to come to this conclusion at just this moment. 

it's like a catch in the NFL... I don't what's legal anymore.

 

That said I think all hits like that one should be suspended.  Left his feet, principle contact is the head, but whatever.

I agree. But it's sure weird that they decide to wait until game 7 of the playoffs to finally punish Kronwall for doing what he's been doing his entire career.

Create precedent. This is a good thing. We all know this league needs to start enforcing the damn rules... Can't sit on your hands and hope that somebody got it right a year ago. Start now.

Watch the end of the video.  The league did a great job of contrasting this hit to other Kronwall hits.

 

I think they finally got something right.  Wow.

Well, at least two of them. He jumps into his hits way more often than he doesn't.

Yeah I lost my shizz after the dez Bryant non catch vs green Bay. Not because I thought he caught it but because the whole process is out of control. It's taking away from the game. The more 15 minute reviews to determine "football moves" or "tuck rules" the less I want to watch.
