To be fair to Nurse - he played the puck and deflected the shot wide. Yes, could have managed that gap better potentially but it's Nathan MacKinnon. He gets space between him and players pretty regularly and he's moving with high pace there.
I don't think that you can qualify what Nurse did as a push in any way. If anything, MacKinnon drives through his head on that play. When McDavid got suspended for the hit on the Islander defenceman, it was similar - other than it was at the blueline rather than the crease. Player in a vulnerable position and McDavid took the path that led through his head. I think that one was extreme, and that it would have been hard to give him a major for smashing Nurse, but really, he goes shoulder through Nurse's head, and hip through Ingram's head. That's a wrecking ball sequence.
And Kadri moaning that he jumps, but he doesn't at all. His feet are flat on the ground until he hits Ingram. He doesn't try to twist out of the way either. I think he probably thought he could get a way with some contact on the goalie, having just played the puck. Likely didn't mean to hit him that hard, but still...
As a player, I was always a round-the-net guy, and I loved getting a little piece of the goalie whenever I could, knowing it was likely to drive him a little mad. I think this is probably some of that - with a bigger collision than anticipated.
