<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s back-to-back games that guys are taking liberties on our guys,&#8221; Sherwood said. &#8220;[Dickinson] is going to have to answer the bell next year because I know we don&#8217;t play them again, but that was a dirty hit. Unneccesary. 6-2. And then he doesn&#8217;t have the&#8230;whatever&#8230; to step on the ice afterwards? [Derek Forbort] asked him. It is what it is. We&#8217;ll get him next year.&#8221;</p>

<p>Sherwood&#8217;s comments are about the hit blindside hit that former Canuck Dickinson threw onto the back of Chytil which whipped his neck back and crunched his head on the board. The centreman stayed down on the ice for several seconds and would fall over in his attempt to get up. Chytil eventually was able to skate off the ice under his own power but would go straight down the tunnel.</p>

<p>Sherwood is currently leading the NHL in hits with 362 – 113 more than second, New York Rangers forward Will Cuylle.
