The thing on both those hits is neither player was going fast, but both had their heads down, and Trouba wasn't skating hard either. In both plays he just lay the body completely square to theirs. The hip and shoulder look like they connect at the same time. The guy seems to be built like a tank to not have momentum but still hit that hard. I don't know if it's wrong but he's not late on the hits. You feel bad for the guys but according to what hitting should be this seems to be within the rules. Nobody wants to see guys hurt though.
