As a Wings fan, if anything it COULD have been called interference, but both players stood their ground and one came out on top. Their record .ight now show it but they're drastically improving as a team and I can't wait to see what they do in the next 5 years or so.
It's interesting floating through team fanbases and seeing different interpretations of what is and isn't an acceptable hit. Detroit fans, it seems to me, want a much heavier game than a lot of other teams these days.
This is why the league is bush, you do this against a Col, Bos, Ny or any team that is highly vaunted in the league this is a call all day (holding interference w/e its not a check) but do it to a bottom feeder team and its ok.

Great hit!!!! But wings can still suck it.
You'll take that and like it:)My boys.
I love the Ducks because they can take a hit and tip their cap
Lindstrom Was Like… Aye Waiter.. Check Please! #WingNut
When your mom says you have Nik Lidstrom at home
when you dont have any strength and have to push with arms
Maybe not textbook penalty but a dick move still
Wait till he's on the boards then crunch em
That was dangerously far off could kill someone
Bigger question since when has Bally's been back in business? 🤔
Here them things went outta business years ago
Might be the last time Steel tries to stop himself using only one skate. Not sure what else Lindstrom could do here, yield the right of way?
that skate came pretty close to hitting him
Clean hit – move along
Clean hit only penalty I would give is a roughing (maybe)
That’s a man’s hit.
I'm shocked boarding wasn't called here. Usually, a normally clean hit will be called boarding if the player falls down.
back out of retirement and killing it! time for an 8th Norris
-Hey, how can I get in contact with you? I’d like to talk about advertising.
Surprised they didn’t call him for using a free hand to grab him. Holding penalty usually in today’s game
Absolutely textbook
Reminds me of Lidstrom. Nice
kronwalled
That's awesome
Can someone please edit this with that one song and have him floating through space and shit? Its what i was expecting and now its all i want

LGRW!!
how is this a hit…
Love Lindstrom, very under-rated defenseman. Great for the team
Love when I see big clean hits and both parties skate away. Thats what its all about.
Solid hit.
It's ok he's Steel
They call that finishing your check

How are these cats using there hands to push people. I got called for it once & never did it again.
Those hits hurt. He's lucky he didn't hit any lower on the board.

Good hit. Clean.
