There was no call on the hit, and Pete DeBoer had the following to say about it:
I thought liberty was taken. He was in a vulnerable position and I thought he got driven into the boards from behind in a dangerous spot. My initial concern was obviously about our player. It was a really dangerous hit, and anytime you see someone get stretchered off your concern is there.
