Was the Bryan Bickell hit on Dustin Byfuglien fair or foul?

It isn’t often that 6′ 5″ 260 lbs Dustin Byfuglien is on the receiving end of a big hit but in the 1st period of the Jets/Hawks game the big man was demolished by a 6′ 4″ 223 lbs Bryan Bickell hit.

Lots of controversy over whether the hit was fair or foul.  What do you think?

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
