Raffi Torres to meet with NHL after hit on Jarret Stoll
Was that hit by Raffi Torres on Jarret Stoll in the Tuesday’s Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals illegal? Granted, Torres’ reputation as a dirty player precedes him, and Stoll did not return to the ice after the blow.

Darryl Sutter declined to offer specifics on the nature of Stoll’s absence, though he pointedly indicated it wasn’t because he was being rested.
