It is similar (but not the same) to the Buffalo hit at 0:57 in the DoPS educational video, where they say "poor angle of approach".

Edit: main difference is that the Buffalo player was moving and Gio wasn't. |
Or, it's a similar hit to that made by Kronwall at 1:25, where the receiving player put himself in a position to make head contact unavoidable.
