In addition, he made no effort to pull up or lesson the impact, and he even followed through by extending his arms through the back to put more impact into the hit.
I'm still blown away by this. Bennett was out on his feet. He had no clue where he was after the hit, and there was no whistle, no call, not even a stoppage of play or any help getting off the ice.
It was like it literally didn't even happen at all.
