I personally don't think it should be accepted, particularly with a son who had to stop playing because of concussions. Any other sport it's a suspension for X games and a fine.
Having said that, when you see something as dirty and dangerous as your goalie getting slew footed (and NO penalty??)...I understand why the gloves flew.
