That is a scary image...
Anyways, I don't really see much wrong with how the situation ended up for Hamilton. He made a competitive move, and then got a penalty for it. The penalty was served. The fact that no one else was close enough to capitalize isn't Hamilton's fault.
Like in Hockey, if the other team gets a penalty and you are given a powerplay that doesn't just outright give you a free goal. You have to still capitalize on the situation.
