First check was fine. The slam to the ice was aggressive but was kinda finishing the check & never targeted the head. IMO the fact he has a concussion is a bit unfortunate and the whole thing looked a lot worse because how small Pettersson is.
I'm not sure it's any worse than how badly Regehr used to maim Hemsky on a regular occurrence.

Absolutely a much more dangerous play but Dube is not a Leaf or a rookie mentioned in Calder discussions so not big news outside of Calgary.
