If you are saying the Bickell hit was like the Torres hit, with the exception that Bieksa had the buck, then you should understand exactly why one was a penalty. One was for interference, one wasn't.
the torres hit was a cop out call for the refs not knowing how to fucking react to a hit that crippled seabrook. if you look the puck IS in the area, and interference is a lame call for a play like that.. it actually would have made more sense if they called it a charge... people actually wouldn't have complained as much if it were a charge (except canuck fans)
