Tonight, in the game pitting the Jets vs the Penguins, Jets Player Brenden Dillon was ejected for this hit to the head of Penguins player Noel Acciari.
The Jets will defend Dillon saying he was finishing his check and Acciari while trying to avoid the check, put himself in a position where Dillon couldn't avoid the head. At real time seed it is hard to see whether Dillon could really avoid the contact, but we have seen before the NHL drop the hammer on these types of plays, while also going to lenient route as well.
