1st players need to play with there heads up and not hunkerd down or lowered a player coming in full speed when u have the puck will hit you and you know. They will usually hit you at shoulder or chest hight only smart to keep ur head above that mark
2nd only **Filtered** like crosby stay down after a hit like that and Seabroke is a big old western canadian kid he will be fine and again like nooby said he still played woo and then got hit over and over again
3rd i dont think the nhl it self even knows what is legal or not any more the whole damn league is so confused right now that the next suspension will be for a hip check

1) I agree. It's hard to though, especially when players try to draw penalties.
2) Seabrooke immediately played, and then got hit again only to leave the last 3 minutes of the period over some contraversy on some rule or some such nonsense. It's some big joke.
3) They don't. The Refs try to do their job, but how consistent are they really?

The fact he got back up, played on the PP, etc says it all.
After so many people crying that he jumped, i watched and rewatched clips of it, I see him leaning into the hit, making his back foot leave the ground =/
Yeah, but when you lean into a hit, you will always have your foot off the ground or else you'll hit him flat footed and fall flat on your ass?
