Elias' cross check on Ott  

I didn't see the shot, but was the recipient bleeding? If he wasn't bleeding and Elias got a 2 minute penalty then he didn't get away with anything. In the case of penalties like that, it's only a 4 minute major if the person who's been hit is bleeding. If the refs decide that it was way out of line then they might go for an unsportsmanlike conduct which could have 5 minutes, 10 minutes or even ejection from the game. But it obviously wasn't bad enough for them to decide it warranted that. But like I said, in the standard on ice offenses (cross checking, high sticking, tripping, hooking, etc) the only way a person is going to get a 4 minute major is of the other person is left bleeding as a result.

One would think so Sarah, if the wings had done it it would have been a 5 minute major!! A few minutes ago Maltby got 2 for goalie interference and Brookbank is the one that threw Maltz into Hiller, I couldn't believe the refs missed that part of the collision.

Hi sarah!
Elias and Jersey plus are double dutch to me. Hopefully, a hockey match was played between two teams and some unfair tactics were adopted or some injustice was done. Hope someone (the concerned authorities) takes a note of it and does not repeat the scene in future'
Have a nice day!

Must have been a real viscous hit! I didn't see it, but I'm sure I'll catch it on the sportscast reruns later tonight or early tomorrow.
But considering the reputation of Ott, and that he was on the receiving end, the refs must have thought that he'll get his way on the next go around.
