I'm with Knightslayer. You have all of the remaining game to worry about punching Trouba in the face. You have a seriously injured human at your place of work, everyone should worry about if they are ok and making room for the medical staff to do their job.

I don't think you should be able to skate around with your head down as a way to protect your possession of the puck, but there needs to be something done so this isn't ok. Let the defending player straight up hug/hold the vulnerable player instead to dispossess the puck? I don't know the answer, but there has to be something that can be done so people aren't receiving life altering injuries because of a mistake they make.
