Deserving because he left his feet and appeared to target the head with his shoulder, not because he hit him.
If goalies want to play the puck outside of the crease, I've always felt they're fair game (within reason), especially with all that extra padding on. But Eakin crossed the line by elevating his shoulder and leaving the ice at the peak of the hit.
If he had remained low and just made body contact, this would have just been another Lundquist flopping incident.

Very good call, didnt even attempt to stop or avoid contact. Goalies should be treated like QBs in the NFL, they wre the most important players.
