Should mention 2 refs in the game and they've called 7 penalties through 1 period. Greeeeeeeeeat.

On the bright side its been a solid game and its getting a little chippy with scrums after whistles.
Here is the video. I know I may be a little biased here but it did not look like that bad of a hit and it seems like he got more of the boards then Melchiori. While watching the game, they originally gave him just 2 minutes but after a couple of minutes of discussing it the refs decided to go with the 5 and a game.
