Re: Cheap *** Sioux!
It is the puck handler's responsibility to keep his head up.
In the still photos when contact was made, Wher had contact with the puck and his head was down, then he was physically revoved from the puck.
Colleges are expected to prepare players for the NHL and NHL players are expected to finish the check. Which seems to mean to get that last push just before contact. I know that TJ Oshie now with the Saint Louis Blues has developed the ability to finish checks and is a Blues fan favorite. Having the ability to dish out checks like that may actually improve his chances to play in the NHL.
Congratulations Matt.
