Forecheckers literally finish their check a good 1-2 seconds after the d man has upped the puck off the boards, and yet they were complaining this was late just because it was open ice? yes it was late, no it wasn't dirty. I am sure the hit Hamhuis too from Getzlaf was later than this hit.
With that said, I am not pissed at all since I was never a Rome fan. Go Ballard!
