Video: Flyers' Samuel Morin Ejected For Nasty Hit on Islanders' Casey Cizikas

Samuel Morin of the Philadelphia Flyers was ejected on Thursday night after a nasty boarding penalty on New York Islander Casey Cizikas. The play happened roughly half way through the first period and Morin didn't pick his spot very well, as he threw Cizikas into the boards from behind right in front of the ref.

The monster Morin is 6'6 and the 25-year-old has always played with an edge but this play he took it too far. Cizikas is never one to shy away from contact but when you can't protect yourself, that's unacceptable.

Here's the play that sent Morin to the dressing room for the night and he may be receiving a phone call from the NHL's department of player safety on Friday:
