[Not Sure]

This is from Edmonton's official twitter, is this not a charge/head hit? Why are the applauding it?

Perfectly fine hit IMO.

The Yotes also head shotted RNH earlier in the game. I feel that was a clean hit too and more a matter of a bigger guy hitting a smaller guy.

What else are they going to applaud?

Didn't watch the game so unless it was clearly uncovered from multiple views that this was a headshot, I've got to say that your post looks blatantly inflammatory.

I mean you can't even see what part of the body he hit from that view?

Seriously? How is that a head shot?

This is a head shot...
(watch the whole vid to the end - and RNH does not came back after that shift)

I was worried there wouldn't be a new Oilers thread on here today. Thanks

This just in: Team franchise media promotes the agenda of the team, supports and appeals specifically to the affirmative outlook of their respective audience.

More news at 11.

Because they think playing dirty is playing tough. How many oilers fans were applauding Nurse and praising him for being "tough" when he jumped Polak ? Nothing to be proud of when you play like a punk. They don't always play like that, almost never do actually but that's clearly a blindside, not a charge imo.

that looked completely fine to me
