Breault's hit not-so gross

This past Tuesday (1/15), 2006 7th rounder Benjamin Breault was given a gross misconduct for running into 6'5 Rimouski goaltender, Jean-Christophe Blanchard. Feeling wronged, some Rimouski fans thought Breault should be suspended. Well, here's the video. You decide if the hit deserved a gross misconduct: A respected Q playmaker, Breault has 20 goals and 45 points this season. He also averages over a hit per game, but not all are of the lamely "gross" variety.
