Whats the call?

An attacking player strips the defenseman of the puck at the defenceman's blueline. Attacking player is clearly on a breakaway when he is tripped by the defenseman. The attacking player is able to return to his skates, still in possession of the puck and continues towards the net. As the attacking player continues towards the goal, still on a breakaway, he is clearly hooked from behind by the other defenceman!

No peaking.....what's yer call?
