If you really want to play the blame game, why is there a solid post in the middle of a full contact playing area? Why do the nets break away but there's a solid stanchion in an area where hits occur all of the time?
The only people I see making a deal of this are Hab's fans and people who do not like how rough hockey is.
Edit: So you're saying an interference call would have been in order?

No, I'm saying this as a player who has been put in that position. Yes its retarded that there is a right angle right off the playing field. But there is a wall in baseball, and a post in football. Yes he should have been called for the interference, and I TOTALLY get that shit happens. But yet again, it was uncalled for in that area, and at that angle.
