By the way, Booth left the ice on his own two skates, albeit helped by his teammates. He did not require being carried.

That is good to hear. I was at work, so I wasn't able to see the hit(or the after-effects). I heard that the Montreal player wasn't a dirty player, so I thought it may have been one of the "head-down" hits. I don't know where that falls under the new rules, though. I guess we'll know soon enough I'm sure.
