This is a disgrace.

St. Louis Blues' forward Ryan Reaves was absolutely livid after this call, and it's honestly hard to blame him.

While Reaves has certainly delivered some questionable hits during his National Hockey League career this was not one of them, and frankly it looked more like a big time acting job from Blackhawks defenseman Christian Ehrhoff more than anything else.

Reaves lined up Ehrhoff in the back of the Blackhawks net, and once Ehrhoff realized the hit was coming he immediately threw himself backwards to avoid the worst of it, and Reaves as a result clipped him in the arm and Ehrhoff spun around before laying down motionless on the ice, motionless that is until the whistle was blown.

You could argue for an interference call on the play, but Reaves certainly did not deserve to be ejected from the contest.
