From the one angle they showed there didn't seem to be anything, but he may have come up with his left hand. Hard to say though. I think git a little to complacent there.

Bennett will be out for a couple of weeks at least. Possibly longer.

Just get through the 3rd without any more injuries. Baby Drew really is nothing more than a pretend tough guy. Zero respect.

What needs to change about that hit? It wasn’t late, it wasn’t high, it wasn’t from behind, Bennet knew he was coming and just got hit hard. It happens. It hurts. It’s part of the game.

This can exist while also harshly punishing actual dirty hits (of which I agree need to be done so more often and more harshly).

Not really. He wasn't charging and most of the onus is on Bennett there. Bennett has hit guys just the same. And I will argue that his attempt on Doughty was far more dangerous as it was leg to leg.

You can get a concussion from a hard shoulder check to the chest. Happens a lot.

I actually think this is the worst example of poor game management by the refs. We’ve seen this before.
Yeah I've seen this movie before. Refs better pull their pants up for the third or it will just get stupid.

Garnet Hathaway doesn't have a good poker face.

Also his answer about food was a lie -- I can attest first-hand that he loves Five Guys

Too bad Prout didn’t accept fight when he had the chance.

Yea, I kind of agree with this. Kings are just looking to stir s*** up at this point. No sense risking any more injuries to our top guys if we don't have to.

Maybe.

When Backlund was concussed Dec 6th vs Minnesota, he was back playing Dec 16th.

Oh come on.

To what?

Ice capades?

Cause if THAT was out of bounds then literally every single kind of contact has to be.

Guys get hurt...its part of the game, no need to change a thing.
