I think you have to see the whole play and if there is any chance of an intentional it can't be decided upon by the actions of the offending player after the contact. Now that I think about it I think an intentional foul is a gray area I wouldn't go to. Since it is an elbow to the face it I thought it was intentional in nature I would rule it a flagrant. There are way too many scenarios where, in reality, there is an intentional foul by an offensive player. Common sense tells us to call the PC and move on.
