Kesler didn't do anything. Grossmann lost his balance and then nicked the skate of Kesler as he was wobbling

Looked like their skates might have gotten tangled, but yeah not really a dirty/penalty play from Kesler.

I didn't like it -- Grossmann's slow, but Kesler doesn't have to initiate contact there

I absolutely thought it was -- Kesler can't get a stick into the guy heading full-speed into the boards, face first, and not wrap him up. Grossmann didn't even have the puck
- AllInForFlyers

Grossmann, with minimal contact by Kesler, tried to headfake to the right and quickly turn to his left. Problem was, when Grossmann angled his skate to the left to quickly change direction, Kesler's skate was in the way. So he lost his balance, and blam.

Back on the bench though, so that's neat.

Replay showed Grossmann turned and lost an edge, skates hit and Grossmann went flying. Not much Kesler could do

He barely initiated contact. He was pursuing the puck carrier after all.

you know their attack would be 5 guys in a straight line so not one person is open for a pass. they would force the pass anyway, and break the other way for a goal

yep, right out of Rollerball.

Yeah, there's not much to debate here. Watch the replay guys. If the roles were reversed you'd be defending it as unintentional.

Is it just me or does Michael Del Zotto have the exact opposite of the Midas touch.

Del Zotto playing a little of the right side with MacDonald. The two look good together.

Schenn playing left with Streit. Mah...bad play by Streit but get out without any damage.

I'm not seeing it. He hasn't really been good, but I don't think he's been bad.
