He took three at least three strides in the replay, then glided in for about the last 20 feet and planted himself right into Pommenville's numbers, who was completely defenseless against the move.

He clearly hit him blindside and with his shoulder to the numbers... it might not be a direct 6 o'clock hit from behind, but it was hit from behind nonetheless. |
