This. We've all played shinny where two guys collide and you simply brace each other so nobody hits the ice and gets hurt.
In the Khaira example Trouba could have still separated him from the puck creating a turnover without sending him to the hospital. They even had to blow the play dead which effectively nullified the turnover. Had he not rattled his brains they would have had possession of the puck and the play would have gone on.
I don't understand what part of ruining a guys life is considered a hockey play.
