Agreed. As much as people want to argue how it's "part of the game" or how everyone loves the physicality, they're on the losing side of history here.
I like the big hits. I wouldn't want to see them gone. But I definitely didn't like that one. And I'm not too stupid to see the days are numbered for blowing up defenceless players.
It doesn't matter if Khaira put himself in that situation, Trouba jumped on it. Neither absolves the other.
