Against the coach of the Hawks, Denis Savard, the namesake of the move. Savard and Khabibulin didn't like it. You've got to love Shannon making a point of celebrating in Khabibulin's face after the Hawks netminder freaked out and shoved him.
From the Chicago Tribune:
"To me that's interference," Hawks coach Denis Savard said. "A goalie shouldn't be able to get bumped. What's the difference if a guy goes right at the goalie and runs him right out? I don't think there's any difference there."
Said Khabibulin, who responded with a punch to Shannon's helmet:
"I guess there's no such rule against it. If there's no rule, I guess he can do that. But he's going to pay the price for that.
