Also, how did he get concussed if the hit was right in the chest?
Maybe when he hit the ice?

i think that concussions happen due to brain trauma; ie the brain getting bounced hard enough to hit the inside of the skull.
this isn't something that requires a blow to the head necessarily - though it is quite possible this happened to the SJ player - all it requires is a blow violent enough for the someone's head to snap back quick enough where there brain is impact due to the sudden change of direction.
of course, i am not a doctor, so i could be wrong
