Yes, he hit him with his helmet...in the shoulder...which is legal.


Rule 9-1-3 disagrees.

Rule 9-1-3: Targeting and initiating contact with the crown of the helmet. No player shall target and initiate contact against an opponent with the crown (top) of his helmet. When in question, it is a foul.

Meh...

Had his right arm out, so it looked like he was trying to lead with his right shoulder, but caught him with the helmet. Good no call. I mean, are you no longer supposed to "put your hat on the ball"? Because there's no fricking way you can do that with your face mask first.
