Someone posted the Kane video on Montoya. If you look at that video, Kane actually tries to go between Monty and the post. Reduced the contact quite a bit.
Doan actually does the opposite. The push on Doan is not much, and Doan just heads straight into Pav for maximum contact. I guess when you get contacted when going to the net, you basically have carte blanch and can claim that you were bumped/pushed/whatevered into the keeper.
I don't like to see Pav hurt. But to my way of thinking, if the Jets were going to get hit with an injury, this is probably the one that we are most able to adjust to. And now Helle will get some time at the NHL level. Could be good or could be a real bucket of cold water. Time to find out.
