If you get hit in open ice just lay there for 60 seconds. It will guarantee a penalty and most likely a 5-minute and an early shower for the skater that delivered the check. Been this way for years, hasn't had an iota of an effect on curbing the dangerous hits to the head, or the checking from behind into the boards.

FWIW though, I actually thought he deserved the major penalty on this particular hit.
