Clean hit, but the league may suspend him due to it being predatory. Yes, people need to keep their head up, but the league clearly wants to eliminate hits where guys take advantage of a player that is vulnerable.
Looked to me like their helmets may have hit. Clearly the first and primary contact was the chest, but Laine's head may have then hit McCabe's. Then it also looked like the back of Laine's head may have hit the ice.
Either one of those things may have concussed him.
