Thankfully I haven't heard anything about Sillinger suffering a concussion.
But the hit was designed to injure the player. You don't hit someone THAT hard if that's not what you are trying to do. I don't think that should be what checking is for.

Hit was designed to hurt, not injure. There's a difference. Every guy in the league wants their hits to hurt so other players remember it the next time. Very few guys go out of their way to try and injure someone, and I don't believe Sam Bennett is one of those players.
