It looks way worse than it was given today's sticks and shin pads I doubt the kid even felt it, but of course he went down like he'd been shot and was gonna die or something. McKenna took one way worse from Woodward earlier this year in Edmonton that was on the back of the leg and not the protected part.

Anyways, Tigers were down 3-1 and stormed back to beat the OKs 5-3. Thankfully don't play that dirty rotten team again in the regular season.
Yeah, I was reading some things online and there appears to be some bad blood simmering between the Tigers and Oil Kings this season. I guess there was a game back in December where McKenna was targeted and the refs did nothing. It's a tale as old as time, if the refs fail to police the game, don't be surprised when the players take matters into their own hands.
