Sorry, but concussion protocol has a minimum amount of time in the quiet room and a protocol they have to pass. That wasn't a legit concussion assessment, coming from someone who has done dozens of them.
Having said that, I don't like to ever see that kind of hit, but unfortunately, we see it almost every game, and game misconducts for it are rare. At this point, it's a reputation penalty. I'm not sure if Pospisil has much of a career ahead, because he's ineffective when he doesn't play that way, and a liability when he does.
