Should someone be effectively uncheckable because they are a smurf in a league of big boys? I say they play at their own risk. The player making the check must surely adjust how they deliver the check depending upon the position of the player receiving the check anyway, so that the check is within the rules of the game. Not checking someone in the head is just another adjustment to be made by the "checker" regardless of the size of the "checkee". Another such adjustment would be not checking from behind. So basically flex the knees until they are a foot shorter?

to me that looks more on the shoulder first than anywhere else don't think anything would be done about that It's clearly not a check to the head from that footage, penalty was correct imo. Forgot to ask, how are the Caps looking just now?

No idea look them up yourself, or do you spend all your life trying to troll folks?
Actually that was a rhetorical question.

No idea look them up yourself, or do you spend all your life trying to troll folks? Actually that was a rhetorical question. So about that "check to the head". Any further thoughts?
