It’s interesting because if you want to eliminate hits like the one on Khaira, you almost have to get rid of hits like the one on Mackinnon. Things move too quickly and the margin for error is so slim that it’s hard to have the latter without the former.
Both Khaira and Mackinnon are arguably “defenceless” because they have their head down. Also reminds me of the Dube hit on Kotkaniemi last year in Montreal (although that was moreso the player quickly changing directions and inadvertently lining himself up for a big hit).
