Tempers flare in Pittsburgh after shot to the head from Evgeni Malkin.

The Winnipeg Jets weren't happy about this hit and it's hard to blame them.

On Thursday night Pittsburgh Penguins star forward Evgeni Malkin delivered a hit to Jets veteran Blake Wheeler, but it was a hit he definitely should have pulled up on. 

While it looked like Wheeler may have played the puck, he never touched it, and even if he had the hit likely would have been late regardless. To make matters worse the point of impact was shown to be Wheeler's head on the replay and this may even be a hit the league eventually reviews.

Here's a look at it from multiple angles.
