@Beefki You can see Johnson crouch down as he's moving, just at the right time to get sliced. THAT part is the "freak accident." This "accident" wouldn't have happened if Petgrave wasn't making an insanely horrible play, though. Technically, this would still count as murder because he DEFINITELY had an intent to harm.
@Beefki I don't think the fact that "it's hockey and it's a dangerous sport" should discount the fact that this is still a move that would get you immediately suspended from a game, potentially several games (or if people actually had a mind, the league). If it's something that just naturally happened in a game of hockey, that'd be one thing, like that goalie who also got his neck sliced while on the floor. That kind of stuff CAN happen because hockey IS a dangerous sport, but when you're actively breaking a rule by throwing your leg up like that... it needs to be called out for what it is.
