Anyway if you really want a return to old time hockey where justice was meted on the ice, that hit results in a brawl. Yay?

If Laine stands and absorbs that hit there is no head contact or no upper body injury. The fact he bailed and got backward momentum and then took the hit made the impact significantly worse. Take the hit, it’s simple.
